  • As a Montessori teacher, I spend my days working with each of my students in large groups, small groups, and in one-on-one lessons. One-on-one does not mean, however, that we can stay with one child all day long, ignoring the other children. We encourage the children to be self-motivated and goal oriented, and to take part in their education. Our materials help support this endeavor as the children practice skills towards mastery. Most children progress rapidly under these conditions, and I continue to be amazed at their ability and joy of learning. We do not enroll only "gifted" children, but welcome all who want to learn.

  • After a month and a half my 1st grade daughter was expelled because they said she was not making a successful transition into their school. PARENTS BEWARE they will take your money then kick out your child and keep your money. If you think that because this is a smaller sized school your child will have more one on one attention do not believe it. I could not pay this school enough to pay attention to my child.
