South Riding CampusCurie Preschool South Riding
Our founding campus, open since 2013 — where the Curie STEAM++ approach began, in the heart of Loudoun County. A bright, purpose-built learning environment serving families in South Riding, Ashburn, Aldie, and beyond — for ages 18 months through Kindergarten.
Formerly The Madame Curie School of Science & Technology — same school, same team, same ownership.
Loudoun County
Loudoun County's STEAM++ School
The South Riding campus is where Curie began in 2013. Our classrooms are purpose-built for hands-on discovery, with dedicated science and art spaces, and generous play areas.
South Riding families choose Curie for the same reasons they stay: small class sizes that let teachers truly know each child, credentialed educators who build lasting relationships, and a curriculum that treats every child as a natural scientist, artist, and storyteller. We're proud to be part of this community.

"We chose South Riding because it was close to home, but we stayed because of the teachers. Our daughter has blossomed in ways we never expected. The STEAM projects she brings home are incredible."

"My son is very happy to go to Madam Curie preschool daily. Teachers are very friendly and take care of kids with lots of patience. Everyday they send report of activities kids did in class and reminders for next day activities ex: show n tell. Happy to see kids pictures taken in school are shared in the end of the week."
