We have not been at the school for 5 months and the kids are already registered and ready for the 2021-2022 and they are so looking forward to it. The teachers have been amazing and very willing to work with my kids for the transition. They have thrived and grew in just these 5 months. The staff all look out for the kids and the school so it is great interaction for all ages to interact with. Great school and environment!

I'm writing this review because 1: I hate seeing that 1-star review by a disgruntled parent and 2:…read morebecause we really love this school! Our daughter has attended CFP since Kindergarten. She absolutely loves it! She has excelled in academics and in social-emotional growth. Since kindergarten, there was never been a time that she didn't want to go to school. As a matter of fact, when schooled switched to online learning in March 2020, she cried and cried because she wanted to go to school to be with her teachers and friends. If we ever had a problem, which was really rare, it was addressed by the teacher and the principal in a timely manner. They have recently built a new facility in Apopka and we are looking forward to the new school year filled with STEAM learning activities.

Where do I begin... We started researching preschools for our son when he was still a young baby…read more Given our very high expectations we could not have been more relieved when we learned about Growing Minds and had the immense privilege of meeting Mrs. Uzma Ansari! She has undoubtedly gone above and beyond dedicating herself to early childhood education for over 20 years. Her passion and compassion along with her genuine love for all the little ones is undeniable! Our son has attended the school for almost 3 years now. We feel so blessed that his first experience with formal education has been at Growing Minds. The teachers follow Mrs. Ansari's vision and have worked alongside her for years, (which is so rare nowadays) and makes such a difference! Being a Montessori School, our son has consistently had the same teacher: Mrs. Carattini. We could not be more grateful for how loving, patient, gentle, nurturing and caring she is. The result is, our son, along with his little peers' flourish into confident, independent, curious children who have undoubtedly been positively impacted by a unique, positive learning environment. Montessori education makes a world of a difference and challenges students to remain true to who they are while cultivating a genuine love for learning. I could not recommend Growing Minds Montessori School more highly to anyone who is looking for a solid educational foundation as well as a loving, nurturing environment for their child. It was the best decision of our lives, and it will be yours too!

Now they are entering first grade well above grade level and are often regarded as the kindest and most well-behaved children. I credit much of their social and academic development to Mrs. Ansari, Mrs Carratini, and the other wonderful teachers at GMMS. If you value high quality montessori education and want a supportive and peaceful learning environment for your little one then this is the place!

I am so appalled at the previous review of Galileo School for Gifted Learning that I had to respond…read morewith my own 5***** recommendation. My three grandchildren have been students for the past 6 years and their education has been excellent. Galileo believes that all of their students have talents waiting to be discovered and the teachers and support staff help them find "themselves". They provide the guidance, the tools, the support and the FUN that all Florida students would love to be part of. Galileo is currently opening their second campus because there are so many children in Seminole County that want to be part of this fantastic school. Their parents have heard about the student success at Galileo, entered their kids into an enrollment lottery that has twice the number of applicants as slots. If that isn't a testimony of success I don't know what is! If you are interested in visiting the school for the 1921/22 school year (they have a full student body for this 1920/21 year) look at the school website, the parent reviews and the state of Florida statistics. I am confident your children will have the same fantastic, memorable educational experience my grandkids are.

My daughter has been enrolled in Grade 6 at Howard School for the past six months. During this…read moreperiod, we experienced repeated and serious issues related to the school environment and the administration. Despite our efforts, these problems were not resolved. As a result, I have made the decision to withdraw my daughter from Howard School and enroll her in another school. I am extremely dissatisfied with the lack of organization and professionalism demonstrated by the administration. Based on our experience, I would not choose this School again and would not recommend it to other parents. I not consider the Howard School like Magnet level, nothing good in this school

I feel like the worst parent in the world for taking my child here at all. If your the parent with the autistic child there, they are hitting him I saw it with my own eyes (no I can not prove it bc the cameras are broken and fuzzy so you cant see what happened so they will get away with it now) . My biggest mistake was sending Mrs. Judy and email. If I could go through this process I would have called Florida Department of Children's and Families First and reported this incident there. Please if you love your children you will not take your child to this facility. if you have a child in there get them out. if you have no choose but to stay when something happens repot it to FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN AND FAMILIES FIRST do not give miss Jude a chance to alter footage and corroborate stories. Also Mrs. Judy who was to report the incident immediately was slow to report the incident to the proper authorities. Do not trust her to do the right thing.

It's supposed to be a school, not political ideology bs. Students were punished for standing up for themselves in unfair situations.
