I am a former teacher and have visited this school before. In my opinion it rates very high for teaching, children's activities and learning, and in a friendly environment. I highly recommend this school for anyone who wants their children to learn and succeed.

My granddaughter goes to Spirit of Hope Montessori School and she just loves it. She is 3 years old and already learning so much about everything. Her hand writing is improving, her vocabulary is increasing, and she loves going to school. This is an excellent school for younger children, very caring adult staff.

Our 2 children have benefited so much from their time at Spirit of Hope. Words can't describe all the growth they''ve experienced in all aspects of their learning. Our kids also love the arts, music, theater, crafts and even yoga activities that the teachers blend into the schedule. Mr.Rick, Mrs. Colleen and Mrs Kim are amazing teachers and mentors. Highest recommendation.

Mr. Rick and Ms. Colleen have made an environment which children have fun as they learn. Our son was excited about going to school. Great program!

Our granddaughter attended Spirit of Hope Montessori School and has gained so much knowledge and experience from this school. Mr. Rick and Ms. Colleen are such good role models and we could tell how much love and caring went into their environment. This is one of the better preschool programs that I have ever found. I highly recommend this school for any three year old child.

Mr. Rick and Colleen ran a great toddler Montessori program. My son had a very solid start with the foundation of learning he gained from Spirit of Hope Montessori. The teachers really seem to care about the children and reinforced the fervor for learning my son has to this day.
