I moved to Sacramento from San Jose in 2014. My daughter finished first grade in Carmichael elementary where she suffered tremendously. The teacher did not put the attention and dedication a teacher is responsible for, consequently leaving my daughter struggling even more than she was before. I was finally able to put my daughter in Deterding Elementary. Mrs. Morganstern was an Angel in disguise. She immediately recognized my daughter frustration and how behind she was in her academics. She met with me and developed a plan for my daughter success. She and other teachers organized an after school tutoring program for kids like my daughter to get that extra help they needed. I couldn't believe the dedication and care these teachers like Mrs. Morganstern genuinely give to their students. When she found out that my daughter was moving from school to school, and yet moving again to Santa Cruz, she quickly contacted me strongly concerned a

OK...so...our daughter started out in Kindergarten there. Her teacher was fantastic and the school…read morecommunity was a pleasure. First and Second grades were pretty much the same story. We noted that their alternate language training was to provide them with a Rosetta Stone account and...well that was it. No follow up or guaranteed exposure in class. Then they moved to the new campus ...and OMG We would here 'Mrs Kim's' voice mails every night on the phone "Good evening Carmichael Parents...I am the good fairy princess..". They have reorganized their parking loops and traffic flows 8-10 times in the time that we have been there. They even began controlling the way you exit the parking lot...yes redirecting traffic on public roads. The administrators cordened off all parking spots for themselves...forcing parents to park a block away if they want to walk there younger child in. They even started making the kids wait in the cold, out in the breezeways until 10 minutes prior to class so that their 'facilitators' had preparation time. Yes...facilitators...not teachers. My daughter was one of 30+ kids in a single class from three different grades, and not one was on the same lesson. The one teacher never had one on one time with her, and very little time to speak to even her grade as a whole. Essentially, the way they have organized it there, is that your kid is in a correspondence course, and with a bit of luck they get a visit from a teacher. They say it works for some.

The staff is warm, caring, and truly dedicated to every child's growth and happiness. We always felt confident and grateful knowing our kids were in such good hands. Leaving was bittersweet, as it was simply time to move on to the next school, but we will truly miss the entire team. If you are thinking about bringing your children here, just do it....you won't regret it!

MCS is an amazing school with phenomenal teachers and staff!…read more Our daughter spent her very first year of school / preschool here before transitioning to CMP Carmichael, right next door. On our daughters very first day of school, her teachers, Ms. Serena and Ms. Malih were so caring and thoughtful with her. She was nervous to be there and didn't want us to leave in the morning. Ms. Serena took her by the hand and spoke gently with her, and made her feel more comfortable. We knew we were leaving our daughter in good hands that morning, and the positive experiences continued on until our last day of school. The office staff is very friendly, and always makes me feel as if I'm part of the MCS family when I talk to them on the phone, or see them in person in the office. Whenever I stop by the office with my daughter, Ms. Galina goes out of her way to say hi to her and often gives her a warm hug and sometimes a sticker =) I would highly recommend Montessori Childrens School to my anyone I know that I is looking for a wonderful, caring place for the children to go to school / daycare, or anyone that plans to continue with the Montessori teaching philosophy.

I am pleasantly surprised about this school. I wasn't sure what to expect from the reviews. I can…read morenot speak about their bridges after school program but they really seem to be trying for the kids. I can not speak about morning traffic because we are there early before traffic starts to develop. Everyone has been very friendly and helpful. They have a class dojo for the class/ school that updates you with important information. I really appreciate that. I was able to ask the teacher about early dismissal for parent conference day and I clarified it was all week. This information would've been nice the week before. Finding alternative transportation is very important and to rearrange the schedules. They had a great resource for the parents and community. Face mobile provides food and diapers and technology information free WiFi tons and tons of information and resources. it sounds like a catch all it is mobile and at different locations. One thing I have noticed the payment is not updated. Paying cash is sometimes not convenient and the school will lose profit. We went to the book fair and the scholastic register was having trouble. I brought cash because of the past experiences but others were having trouble and the line was very long and the wait was at least 30 minutes. I don't know if some people walked out because they couldn't wait and they were directly to the site. Having a square to have the transactions accountable I'm sure they could figure something that was more effective. The employee seemed frazzled under the pressure. Another person to help with the transactions would've been very helpful. We at our first trimester of the school and we are happy. I have open communication with our teacher. And it's made the experience great.

I have visited several times for extracurricular activities where students performed in the areas of music, history, performing arts, ethnic studies. Not only were the teachers friendly and enthusiastic, they had my nephews fully engaged in the programs and proud to have us there to see their accomplishments. I also think the parents of the students in this school deserve a lot credit as they are also very engaged and donate their time and energy in making their children's activities and field trips above and beyond. Really a lot to be said for what a school can be even when funds are short. Thank you for making the extended family and community so welcome.
