School Reviews

5  
My daughter just completed her second year at Willow Creek Montessori and will be returning next year for kindergarten. She loves her teachers, has made a lot of friends and is learning reading, writing, math, science and life skills at an incredible rate. She loves to sing us the silly songs she learns and show off her art projects when we pick her up. The director and teachers focus on helping students develop social and emotional skills in addition to a well-rounded academic curriculum. Questions (or concerns) are welcomed and responded to in a timely manner with an effective resolution. The school is safe with a locked campus and a good teacher-to-student ratio. The classrooms are clean, the grounds are spacious, and the playground is well maintained. There hasn't been any staff turnover in the two years my daughter has attended, and you can feel how much they care about the kids. They educate with warmth and good humor.
