The Montessori Schools

My son just started here and I just wanted to share how well he has adjusted to this school. His teachers have been very supportive of his needs and I have always been comfortable with their communication. The "office ladies" and Ms. Monica are always friendly and helpful whenever I call or stop by the school. His academics and social skills are progressing and I am looking forward to conferences this month to learn more!

We have been with the school for one year and now going on our second. I am very impressed that everyday the front office staff always greets us by name. I have had a few conferences with the director to get to know her as well as to communicate special needs about my child and she has always been very helpful (not sure what the other parents are complaining about...). My child loves to going to school and I am pleased with his academic learning(his teachers are great!) . He moved from the toddler rooms to the primary class and is doing well. We are so glad to be a part of this school!

We just moved to the area and my husband started a new job. He got a recommendation for this school from several of his coworkers. I am so glad that we followed their advice. Our child had never been one to separate well from me and now he just waves bye and goes into school with a smile. The front office staff and the director have been wonderful. Ms. Monica went out of her way to make sure that the transition went well. I am looking forward to seeing all the wonderful things my child will accomplish here and hope to be in the school for a long time to come!

We have been with this school since January of last year. The school has definately grown a lot this school year. This is the second week of school and we are happy with any changes we have seen. The front office staff has changed, but they are doing great. They always know the answers to our questions and are smiling and happy when we come to pick up from school.
I did talk with the director about changes that would occur this year, priot to the school year. She was very open about why staff members left(had very little turnover in my mind) and offered to set up conferences on my schedule to meet the new teachers (even in the afternoons; not sure what the other mom was complaining about). All it took was my asking for those meetings and she set up them up before the school year even started. She was very cordial to work with and from what I have seen she makes sure that things run smoothly in the classes.

I do agree with others about the music, foreign language, art and science being including the daily schedule as being a definate plus. I also believe that the staff listens to us when we need more communication about what is going on in each of classes.

I talked with the office staff and I think next month we will see more coming home. I always believe in communicating our family needs instead of complaining. The school and its teachers are not mind readers. Every family is so different. We have friends at the school who are just happy that their child is happy and goes to and comes home happy everyday.

As for the new teachers I have met, I have introduced myself to those I don't know and they have been very friendly. I am glad we are still at this school and we plan to stay for a long time for both our children!!
