AFM Education
Welcome to Ahwatukee Foothills MontessoriAFM is a Montessori oriented family comprised of staff, students, parents and administrators working together to enhance each child’s social, emotional, physical, and academic qualities.
Welcome parents!
"As a parent, you are your child's first and most influential teacher. You guide each step of their care and education. When parents choose AFM for preschool and kindergarten, they are choosing a partnership based on accountability and respect. Our program serves children aged 2.5 through 6 years, and our dedicated team of educators, administrators, and support staff are ready to provide your child with a rich learning experience. We prioritize high academic standards, foster social and emotional development, and provide individualized instruction and care tailored to each student. And because a true partnership is also based on trust and transparency, we welcome parents on our campus to observe their child at any time. Welcome to AFM. We think you’ll like it here."
