In love for the Lord. I lived next to the church and school from 2005 to 2014 and I have also experienced some Sunday mornings with them. It is beautiful rite with no vain repetitions. And they are good folk who did not judge me harshly nor treat me as a foreigner but welcomed me as a sister in Christ.

Our daughter has been at PCMA since she was 18 months old and she will be having her last summer…read morethere this year - it is bittersweet. She will be going to TK in the fall. Over the past 2 and half years, we have seen significant growth in her emotional and mental well being. We do not have any close family near by so initially she had a hard time warming up to the teachers/support she did not see on a normal basis. The teachers, directors and the Montessori approach made it easier for her to become the little confident person she is today in which I thank them for their care and support. Additional Notes: The school itself is located on PCH so it is a busy during rush hour. There are times that getting in and out of the school can be troublesome. However, the school itself feels secure and I didn't worry too much about her safety as there are a lot of gates. Since we have been there for a while, we have seen a few changes in staff and was questionable at times. However, the current director does her best to manage the changes and notifies the parents as soon as possible. The director and teachers are very caring and do their best to accommodate the changes as well. The school uses an app for communication about your child and it is very convenient as they update throughout the day such as meals and if they took a nap, etc. It made me feel less anxious. I do feel that they are aligning well with the academics while fully embracing the Montessori guidance. My daughter does well with independent play and loves to learn. She shows an interest in many subjects. Thank you PCMA for the good memories and we will miss you guys!

We absolutely adore his teachers. One of them we actually met at our previous school--she later…read morejoined PCMA and told us about it, which ultimately led us here. Both teachers, Ms. Angie and Ms. Marizol, are truly wonderful with our son. They are encouraging, engaging, patient, and fun. We were told that it can take some children 1-3 months to stop crying after drop-off, but our son stopped crying after just the first week, which speaks volumes about the kindness and care they show him. What impressed us even more is how quickly we began to see growth. After just his first week, our son learned to sneeze into his arm, and we've noticed him forming his sentences more and more each day. The school provides weekly curriculum updates, which we love, and they also focus on a monthly book, reinforcing learning in a thoughtful, intentional way. It truly reflects an authentic Montessori learning style. The campus itself is adorable, spacious, and thoughtfully designed for children. The activities offered are precious and intentional, from the Thanksgiving kiddie potluck to Spirit Week and the Christmas recital. Another huge plus is that the school offers lunch and snacks for an additional $100 per month, which is very reasonable and takes a lot of daily stress off parents. The only con I would note is the number of days off throughout the year while still requiring full monthly tuition. This can be challenging, as it requires parents to take multiple days--and even weeks--off work. That said, it is the only downside we've experienced. We initially gave this school 5 stars, and while we still love and appreciate the teachers, it's important to note that a rating reflects the entire experience--including management. Since we don't deal with administration daily, it hasn't impacted us as much, but our confidence in upper management isn't what it once was. It's still a good option overall, especially because of the teachers--but don't expect the same level of excellence across the board.

Our son has attended Broadacres Preschool for the last 2 years and it has been a great experience…read more Broadacres and its teachers have a down to earth nature that feels safe, comfortable, and always welcoming. We have watched our son blossom in the last 2 years and we credit much of that to his school experience. They focus on developing good social skills through play time in the yard (which features many fun play structures, trucks, toys and a beautiful tree providing shade). The songs and learning take place in the cozy classroom. We are regularly blown away at how much our son has learned during his time at Broadacres! Highly recommend for parents looking for a preschool based in nature, and with a family feel!

My g'daughter post-Broadacres attended 3 preschools before going to Kindergarten, but the only one she remembers and wants to return to is Broadacres. Ms. Betty and her staff are 'old school', stressing manners, how to feed horses (palm up), sneezing in your elbow, being respectful of others, and, of course, Ms. Betty's accordion music. If you want those wonderful basics for your children, go to Broadacres. After 4 years, my g'daughter remembers and returns w/me to see Ms. Betty (give her a hug) and feed the resident horsies carrots. Broadacres is so much more than a preschool, it's a lifetime memory.
