A wonderful school with truly dedicated teachers who could be earning significantly better wages in the public school system. Students are learning at their own pace and have many opportunities to work independently and in small groups. The atmosphere is almost always calm. We go on field trips multiple times per year. The best part is the comparative test scores, which consistently exceed those of peers, with students frequently reading at level 2 to 4 grades above.

My daughter started in the toddler community at the beginning of last year. The school has done an amazing job of meeting her individual needs, teaching her skills for independence, and instilling an early love of learning. The school's COVID precautions this year made me feel safe sending my child to school.

My son has had an enriching experience over the past 5 years that he has attended. His teachers were wonderful and really caring. The Montessori education he gets not only nurtures his intellectual growth but it has bolstered his social growth. I really think he is being equipped with the necessary tools for success tomorrow.
