Whether you are a seasoned Montessori parent or just newly considering a Montessori education for your child, North Shore Montessori School is a wonderful community and a happy place to be a child.

This won't be the longest review, but this is a great place, with great people. The trainers are…read moreknowledgeable, friendly, and very very kind and open. They're efficient, and since it's somewhat small, you get lots of personal attention. (and I've been at an institute with lots of people) you want it to be small. Trust me. They're also very open to feedback, and willing to help if you have a problem. Parking can be annoying, as they don't really have their own lot, but it's not terrible. You can usually get a spot. And the bathroom is in the basement. But those aren't the things to focus on when it comes to a Montessori institute where you're going to become a teacher.

I cannot say enough great things about AMS, as evidenced by sending our fourth child to AMS. My…read morethree older children, who attended AMS between 2017 and 2022, all with different learning abilities and skillsets were extremely prepared for Elmbrook Schools. The education, social, and emotional skills they all gained at AMS has propelled their learning and abilities and we are still reaping the benefits of AMS today. Our youngest, who is currently attending AMS full time, including their full-time wrap care program, absolutely loves going to school. I love the personal photos and updates from everyone at the school; the level of personal care and concern for all of my children while in the hands of the AMS staff is absolutely unmatched.

Ms. Vera is the kindest educator I have ever experienced. I was fortunate to chaperone a field trip to the Calatrava with the group.

I am certain that the best gift you can give your child is a solid educational foundation, and they will benefit from attending Morningstar for the rest of their lives.

From the owner: In every authentic Montessori "environment," there are areas of Practical Life, Montessori…read moreSensorial Skills, Language, Mathematics, Culture, Sciences and Arts. Each child is given individual presentations according to his or her own interests and development. Each child is allowed freedom within limits to explore the environment, make choices, and utilize the materials at will. This allows the child the joy of discovery, the space and time to work at his/her own pace, the power to think for him/herself, the ability to problem-solve, to persist, and to gain the confidence, concentration, and the desire to learn more. There is no greater gift of education than for a child to become a joyful and motivated self-learner. In the child-centered Montessori environment, the Guide follows the child, and the child becomes the true teacher. The Guide "learns" how to truly assist each child, by utilizing the same techniques that Dr. Montessori used -- observing the child's needs and interests, then matching appropriate materials for the child's development. If the child is drawn to a particular material, he/she may choose to repeat it (repetition) over and over again until that skill is acquired. All of the materials are sequential in order of difficulty, and each child may begin according to his/her own ability.
