Fayetteville Montessori Elementary is an elegant 7,500-square-foot, two-story school designed to enhance its natural surroundings, instead of competing with them. Filled with abundant natural light, the built environment and the natural world combine to create a unique learning environment complete with classrooms, a commercial-grade kitchen, metal and wood siding, a green roof on one level, and a rain-garden designed to alleviate flooding. This modern building achieved LEED^® Silver level certification.
