We are open throughout the year except major holidays. We offer affordable rates and flexible schedules. The Prepared Environment: The Montessori Method is based on the theory that children develop individually, at their own developmental pace, in a carefully prepared environment. The prepared environment possesses a certain order and builds a strong foundation for learning, fostered by the practical life and sensorial materials in the classroom, enabling children to move through a continuum of curricula, naturally advancing with each step. The Toddler Environment: Children in our toddler program flourish in a prepared environment, which respects, supports and responds to their basic needs for independence, exploration and the building of trust and self-esteem. The structure of the curriculum is based on five developmental areas: Sensory and Perception, Physical and Motor, Self-Help Skills, Language, and Social and Emotional development.

A teacher assistant was posting on social media that all white people should shut up. I have two black sons that we sent to Berean in hopes they would be protected from teachers pushing Critical Race Theory. Another very upsetting thing was being charged for 4 weeks of school, nearly $2,000 for our 2 children when the school was shut down, which put our family in a very tough place financially - taking several weeks of unpaid leave to pay for schooling that wasn't being provided.

My family utilized the childcare services for over 2 and a half years until an incident occurred…read morethat was completely inappropriate and involved the physical harm of my child under their care. Obvious poor management by this institution has lead to several citations from the Department of Human Services. You can look these up for yourself online. In my opinion, the leadership in this organization, the School Board, director, and the administrators, are some of the least trustworthy people I have encountered. In attempting to remedy our concerns, we were lied to, gaslit, and eventually ignored. Example: After receiving assurances on record that our tuition would be on hold until an investigation was completed on the safety of the classroom, they then tried to charge us and terminated out good standing so they would no longer have to answer our questions or bring any conclusion to our concerns. We have since learned from other parents that several children were harmed in the same manner. In my experience, this institution is more concerned about their public appearances and generating income for the church rather than providing a safe environment for children. My family plan is to stay as far away from this building and these people as possible.

I did NOT appreciate that 0-15 month olds and 16-3 year olds have SCREENS here. That's not only NOT…read moreMontessori but also NOT good for Brain development. I pulled my child out and now am staying home with my kiddo full time. Reading "Better Late than Early" book convinced me that my toddler does not need preschool. We cut down our expenses so we can live on one income. Mommy or daddy, stay home with your child. Letting someone else raise them psychologically DAMAGES them. I dot recommend this center at all mostly due to the use of SCREENS.
