Maryland's First Charter School
Monocacy Valley Montessori Public Charter School is the first charter school within the Frederick County Public School (FCPS) system. Attendance is open to all FCPS students entering Pre-K through eighth grade through a Lottery system held annually in March each year. The school's academic program is based on the philosophy and methods of Dr. Maria Montessori. The students, staff and families of MVMPCS are working together to create an enriching learning community. The first step in exploring a Montessori education is to visit our school on one of our monthly tours. We encourage you to sign up.
School Closings/Delay Announcements
MVMPCS sends the cancellation notice via the eNews email distribution (after Find Out First). Messages from eNews will include changes to events specific to MVM (such as snow-date changes for plays). All families are required to subscribe to our eNews. If you do not receive this, please fill out the Contact Form below and then notify webmaster@mvmpcs.org to get added.
Frederick County Public Schools sends out all school closing notifications through their Find Out First system. There was an upgrade to the system over the summer, so if you did not receive the notification for this cancellation, please review your communications preferences within the FCPS system.
