We''ve had our son at Montessori One since he turned 2 years old. The school has 3 classrooms: Room 3 has the younger pre-Kindergarten kids, Room 1 has both younger and older pre-Kindergarten kids, and Room 2 is the Kindergarten classroom. Room 1 is larger in size than Room 3, and for whatever reason our son started out in this class, which is led by a phenomenal teacher, by the way. He later progressed to Room 2, led by another phenomenal Kindergarten teacher. Academics are of primary concern to us, and we are extremely happy with the education our son received, so much so that we intend to send our daughter to this school as soon as she turns 2 years old. The owner is very active, and both her mother and daughter are also assistant teachers at this school -- and this also gives this school it's family feel. The facilities are top-rate: nothing is ever broken or old. We always strongly recommend this school to our friends/neighbors.

I now have two boys at Montessori One and we love it. I usually recommend it to friends/neighbors because of how nurturing the staff is; it is a family run school and it feels that way. But today I'm writing this because I am so impressed with the level my just-turned 4 year old is at academically already. I don't normally care how "smart" or advanced he is, but last night he started reading on his own and some of the skills he is using came straight from school. Ok, I'm sure that is a common expectation of a preschool - to get kids reading. But do they always? And on top of being first-class in every other way, too? Just had to share since I'm feeling quite happy today with them. Thanks M1!
