I can't say enough good things about this school. We originally chose the school because I was…read moreinterested in a Montessori-style educational experience for my children to get them excited about learning. I was also blown away by our initial tour. The classrooms were so orderly and peaceful, and the children were so happily engaged in their work. We've been with the school for the past four years now, and I've never regretted it once. My son is in Children's House and my daughter is in Lower Elementary. The teachers are all excellent and have allowed my children to make outstanding academic progress, and the overall atmosphere is warm, caring and family-like. I love how much the children learn without a lot of the negative pressure or homework that other schools seem to have. The atmosphere is also very sweet and my children have never had any kind of issues with other kids there. Overall, we're tremendously happy with the school. It feels like a bit of a hidden gem. My only criticism is that I wish they continued into later years!

His anxiety dropped tremendously and he really, really enjoys going to school now. He was like a completely different child after the transition. The lower elementary classroom runs so smoothly and the children learn so much in an environment that doesn't seem pressured or intense. My son is blossoming both academically and socially at McDonald Montessori and we will be very sad at the end of third grade when he has to move on.

They were extremely helpful with potty training (I'd like to think we helped, but they were the driving force behind it). They work with your children through that process. Play equipment is great. Plenty of indoor and outdoor door space for the children to play. Would recommend to any parent that wanted their child to be cared for by loving individuals that truly care about your child's development into upstanding members of the community.

So the outcome to my 4 year old's experience, was a expulsion not even after 2 weeks of service. The school also called and notified me of my 4 year old getting sick before this, and needed to be picked up asap. Upon my arrival, I found my 4 year old alone in his classroom, lights off, no supervision whatsoever, no toys, just sitting there in solitude, without any other supervisors in sight in the hallway or elsewhere. He was sitting in a cot, staring at the doorway I just walked into, wondering how long he was going to be in the dark alone, on a cheap cot on the floor, that they charge a ridiculous rate for to "rent". I picked him up, left the room, left the premises. His classroom teacher that should've been in there with him, just proved that due to their lack of supervision and negligence, that absolutely anybody can walk in the door, down the hallways of other classrooms, grab your child, and leave the center, without ever being seen or stopped. What a warm and fuzzy feeling.

We love the Montessori approach and feel that it helps children develop very comfortably at their own pace. All of the teachers, TA's, and administrative staff have been easy to communicate with and helped us with any concerns over the year. Being that it was her first year, I admit that I did have a lot of questions, but the staff was understanding and as the weeks went on, I felt more and more comfortable that she was safe and well taken care of and she became very comfortable with her teachers, as well as her peers. I saw how much she learned just after two months. The schedules work and have helped her thrive academically and socially. I can see her problem-solving skills have really developed, as well as her thinking. The monthly newsletters kept us informed throughout the year. The school programs are all fun to attend and see the children work together, and also see their individual personalities shine. I feel that the facility is very clean and that she's picked up some good habits over the year. She's also made some good friends with her peers and learned good manners. We love hearing about her day, her lessons, and activities when we pick her up. The pick-up and drop-off system works fairly quickly. We also love that they do STEM, art projects to bring home, gym, outdoor activities, and trips to the farm. It's a great facility and we do love the diverse staff, who are all friendly and helpful. We have enrolled her next year and can't wait to see how much more she learns and grows over the next few years with MAV.
