Taking Heathermarie's parenting class has transformed my relationship with child and has grown my confidence as a mother. Heathermarie's approach to teaching is rooted in kindness and positivity; this has been so impactful to my learning as someone who struggles to open up and fears judgment. She was very attentive and made every effort to learn about my concerns and goals. I feel like Heathermarie tailored our lessons just for me. I have not found this in any of the classes I've taken from other providers in the past. Thanks to Heathermarie's guidance, I have developed and continue to build, practical strategies for resolving conflict and connecting with my daughter, even when we are rushed for time throughout the week. Heathermarie is an amazing and excellent educator and professional. I am forever grateful to her and cannot endorse her enough.

With her impressive credentials and unwavering commitment to high standards & innovation, she has created an environment where children thrive. She has thoughtfully designed her classrooms and curriculum to foster curiosity, independence, and a love for learning. I've personally gotten to know many of the children that graduated from Skipping Stones and beyond excelling in academics, you can see they have a deep sense of community, kindness, and respect for their environment. I highly recommend Skipping Stones.

As a fan of history and 1920's architecture I had to stop when I saw this historical marker on the…read morecorner in front of the The Cushman School located in the historic MIMO Miami district on Biscayne Blvd. It is the oldest, continuously-operating, co-ed pre-kindergarten through grade 12, college preparatory, private school in Miami. The historic marker was erected by the Class of 1964 in cooperation with the Historical Association of Southern Florida. Dr. Laura Cushman moved from Iowa to Miami in the early 1900s. After becoming an accomplished teacher in the county school system, she decided to open The Cushman School on the front porch of her home in 1924 with just 12 students. In 1926 the school moved into the Mediterranean Revival building designed by Russell Skipton that is still used today. The classrooms were arranged to ger the breeze from Biscayne Bay. Windows were added to the school that came from the Royal Palm Hotel in downtown Miami. The school bell on the roof of the main building is the same plantation bell that was used to call the construction workers to Villa Vizcaya. Today the campus is a mixture of the historic buildings and new ones and the high school building is a few blocks south on Biscayne Boulevard. Dr. Cushman served as principal of the school for 52 years. She wanted the children who attended the school to not only be good scholars but also good citizens with the character traits of industry, responsibility, reliability, courtesy, honesty and integrity. In 1992 the United States Department of Education named The Cushman School as a National School of Excellence. Today, the school consists of a mix of historic and new buildings spread across a beautifully landscaped campus in a historic pocket of Miami. The high school building is a few blocks south on Biscayne Boulevard. As a fellow educator I loved learning about Dr. Cushman's educational philosophy which positively influences the development of the child but with all of the data input and test taking that goes on in schools today, is not emphasized enough in the public school system. How refreshing to see that there is a school developing tools and educational programs that help children reach their highest potential while still promoting social responsibility. All of that comes at a steep price however as tuition ranges from $33,000 to $43,000 a year at The Cushman School.

From the very beginning, it was clear this was more than just a school. It felt like a second home. What stood out most was the teachers. They didn't just teach our children, they truly loved them. You could feel it in the way they greeted them each morning, the patience they showed, and the care they took in understanding each child as an individual. As parents, there's nothing more reassuring than knowing your children are safe, seen, and deeply cared for when you're not there. The Montessori approach was thoughtful and nurturing, encouraging independence, curiosity, and confidence in a way that always felt age appropriate and respectful. We watched our children grow not just academically, but emotionally and socially, and we credit so much of that to the environment and people at Morningside. We will always be grateful for the years our family spent there. Morningside Montessori helped shape our children in the most loving and supportive way, and we couldn't recommend it more highly.

Our children graduated knowing basic math principles and reading short sentences. GSKA provides lunch, an exciting summer camp program, and fun activities throughout the year. They make an effort to constantly have events and create memories for their students. There are so many teachers that I could not name them all, but know that you all have a special place in our hearts. A special thank you to: Ms. Paola, Ms. Exilia, Ms. Tati, and both Ms. Midi. And to the administrators, Ms. Fernanda and Ms. Ani. We are also grateful for Ms. Maggie, the owner, who manages GSKA with love. She has provided affordable child care in an area that does not have many options. She loves her business and it is evident in how she has evolved to make her school every year a little better than the year before. If you are looking for a pre-school, look no further, GSKA is the best option in the area. Without any hesitation, we recommend GSKA. Thank you for 8 amazing years!
