My 3 month old son just started at Montessori Academy. As a first time mom, I was nervous to drop…read morehim off at daycare and it was very emotional. However, even on the first day, his teacher and the staff there made us feel so welcome and at ease. His teacher, Mrs. Kelby is so kind and warm. It was obvious that she would take great care of him which made it so much easier to drop him off. They send pictures and updates on how his day is going which makes being away from him a little bit easier. She is so amazing at making sure he gets plenty of naps, meals, and tummy time! I know he is thriving there and extremely well taken care of. The facility itself is clean, safe, and inviting. I recommend Montessori Academy to everyone I know!

Initially, my wife wanted to enroll our three year old son in a Montessori preschool. In some ways,…read moreThe Goddard School is the opposite of Montessori: where Montessori stresses free, unstructured, child-led activities, Goddard stresses organized, structured, teacher-led activities. For our son, who is naturally independent and creative, the structure Goddard provides, rather than stifling his independence and creativity, helps him channel it in new, more social and collaborative ways. Sometimes this is difficult for him. But we think it's challenging him to develop skills that a Montessori-type approach might not provide. Plus, the teachers are incredibly well-qualified, the facility is new, clean, beautiful, and very well-managed, and the security and health precautions are advanced and well-applied. The Goddard School and its proprietary curriculum may not be well-suited to fit every child's needs and all familys' budgets, but we feel it's well-suited to our child's needs and well-worth the added expense over some of its competitors. Also, it's good to know that TGS is a franchise, so each individual facility will only be as good as its owner-operator. And the owner-operator at this facility, himself a father, is kind, respectful, organized, efficient, dedicated, detail-oriented, professional, and an excellent manager of both property and personnel. We highly recommend this school to anyone who feels that their child would benefit from this kind of learning environment.

When we started looking for a pre-school for our son in 2022, our friends suggested Cloverdale…read moreMontessori because of their positive experiences in the past. CMS was going to start under the new management that time, so we were little worried about the same quality and positive feedback we'll receive in the coming years, but the new Management surprised us with their updates and connection with the families. CMS teachers have long-term experience in their field and the main teachers Ms.Amy & Ms.Carry are working at CMS for many many years. Because of their small class size, each child get individual attention during their learning and needs. The teachers and management always keep in touch with our concerns and questions. Our son started reading and writing in full sentence before starting KG. He also learned science, math and many other life learning skills from CMS. CMS focus on making kids independent & giving the opportunity to explore more things. CMS also offer music & Spanish lessons in their curriculum. We are glad that our son got the opportunity to start learning Spanish at this young age. CMS celebrate all special days including Holidays & festivals. It is really fun for the kids and the families. CMS class rooms are clean, tidy and well organized with lots of educational & fun stuff. Their huge backyard is truly amazing with all the big trees, shades and play equipment. We never had any issues/complaints with CMS during our 3 years. We highly recommend Cloverdale Montessori for anyone who is looking for a special and fun learning experience for your little ones.

Our daughter has been attending this school since 2020 and we love it. It has been the best school…read morefor her. The teachers are all wonderful and have been at the school for decades. You cannot get that anywhere else. My 5yo daughter says it is a "loving and kind" environment and that is why she loves it. She knows that they care about her, they are invested in her development and that they instill a respectful culture. It is truly special. The education she has gotten there is so well rounded, I cannot say enough. They implement the Montessori methodology and have gone above and beyond to implement as many learning opportunities as possible. My daughter has grown in math and reading as well as the day to day basics that children need to grow in this world. Just this week they have been growing their own spices, learning about them, grinding them and bringing them home for use. She loves it. Ms Rosemarie has been teaching her Spanish, which she loves, and Ms Carrie has been taking them on educational field trips to grow her education in the community. She looks forward to seeing Ms Jan every day, and wanted to tell her about her loose tooth. She loves Ms Amy and the activities she has put together for the outside play. I just can't say enough good things. We love all of the teachers there. If you want your child to thrive, bring them here!

My child attended Cherry Lane Montessori for two years when we moved here from another state…read more During that time the entire team was so welcoming and nurturing for my daughter - a home away from home. We transitioned to public school for kindergarten and my child is ranking in the 95-99 percentile in all subjects, doing math and language they haven't learned yet, all stuff she learned at Cherry Lane. Her social skills have flourished, she has so many friends, and she's even used her voice to stand up for a friend that was having some problems with an older student. She's doing great at her new big school all thanks to the foundation we built at Cherry Lane. I cannot recommend this school enough!!

We can't wait to send our youngest to CLM in the next couple of years! :)

My daughter has gained so much knowledge and a passion for learning. She loves helping the teachers and younger students. I know that having her attend Overland Montessori has created a fantastic foundation for her upcoming years in the public school system. Each of the staff members has an open communication with parents and we have always been free to call or stop by anytime. The teacher/student ratio is great and I know my daughter received a lot of 1:1 time from the teachers which is invaluable...she is reading at a 3rd grade level and is unstoppable! Many thanks to Overland Montessori for a fantastic program!

I recommend Heroes Academy to anyone I meet! Why? Because Heroes Academy provides the type of…read moreenvironment and child-lead learning that I wanted for my kids, yet I didn't know it existed until a few years ago when our full-time traveling family decided to take some time off the road. Now we are settled into Idaho and at Heroes and I don't think our kids will let us ever leave (not that I want to). As an Acton Academy, Heroes encourages every child to think and behave like a hero, not a victim, while embarking on a self-growth journey. They encourage every family and child to be proactive, begin with the end in mind, to hold themselves and others accountable and to high standards. It's a place where children discover their own passions, gifts and begin to lead meaningful and purposeful lives. I have seen incredible growth in all 4 of our children over the last 2 years while attending Heroes Academy. They have developed real life skills such as how to have a meaningful conversation with an adult; how to fail and get back up again; how to speak in front of a large crowd; how to begin finding a passion or start a small business, all without our help. If you're worried that your child isn't actually learning much by completing so many assignments, doing homework each day, taking tests and getting 'good' grades in the assembly line of a traditional public education system, then Heroes Academy might be great for your family. I couldn't be happier with Heroes Academy and all that they have done for our entire family. You see, being a family at Heroes has encouraged my husband and I to continue on our own self-growth journey and to push ourselves each day, while our kids grow right alongside of us.

This school made me discover my passions and really let me focus on what I am interested in. Coming to this school gives you the opportunities no other school would. you get to learn new things every session and it has challenges that teach you to learn, not to remember. i highly recommend this school especially if your child has adhd, add, autism, or anxiety because this place is very welcoming and helped me so much mentally.
