I am very disappointed with my experience with this school. I do have a couple of other friends who…read morehave a total of four different children here, their experiences were much more pleasant than mine. As in any school or establishment individual experience is going to be different, depending upon the teacher in classroom in with your child is placed. I picked my child up today only to hear her screaming at him through the door. I arrived early to pick him up. As I approached the classroom door I heard her yelling at him to go to sleep calling him a baby and telling him he needs to go to the baby room since he won't sleep. My son was crying telling her he didn't want to go to the baby room saying "I'm a big boy". This was not a stern or firm teacher voice, this was screaming and berating my son in front of his classmates during their nap time. My son should not have had to go through that, the other children in the class should not have had to hear that. As a former teacher myself this is NO WAY in which to speak to a child, especially for not napping. This "teacher" does not deserve the title and should not be working with children. Once she came to the door, her tone completely changed, she became extremely soft spoken and sweet. The hypocrisy was ridiculous. I mentioned the experience to the front staff as the director of the school was not there. They apologized.

If you read the one-star reviews, you'll notice a common theme: poor treatment of children. As…read moreparents, we diligently research daycares and carefully place our children at a childcare facility where we think that they will be loved and cared for. As such, I decided to write about my child's experience because I would never want any parent to experience the pain and frustration that my husband and I experienced. Our child attended Pinnacle Montessori of Frisco from three months old until our child was 16 months. The month before we withdrew our child, we expressed our concerns to the director regarding whether they were communicating our child's medical information to every person who cared for our child, as well as our frustration regarding the fact that, for two days in a row, two different jackets were unable to be located when we picked up our child. After this complaint, our child started receiving negative behavior comments frequently. To put things into context, our child received their first negative report ever on the same day that we notified the teacher of the missing jacket (i.e., the day before our complaint). Thereafter, our child typically received several negative reports each WEEK. Our child was 15 months old at the time. We met with our child's primary teacher to discuss our concerns regarding the frequency and the nature of the negative reports. We were told that the reports weren't meant to suggest that our child was doing something bad, they were more so to let parents know how their child's day went. A few days after this meeting, the director stopped me on my way out the door after dropping my child off and informed me that if my 15-month-old child continued to receive negative reports for the next three months, then maybe my child is communicating that Montessori is not for them. I took this as a thinly-veiled threat to kick my 15-month-old child out based on frequent "negative" reports that coincidentally started occurring after my complaint. Of course, this direct contradiction regarding the intention behind the reports resulted in us having a meeting with the director and the teacher. At the meeting, the director informed my husband and me that we were "too sensitive" and that she had no reason to have a problem with our child because we pay on time each month, and the teachers have never had a problem with us. This was jarring to us because no childcare facility should differ the level of care and treatment that they provide to a child based upon the child's parents' ability to pay on time. After this meeting, things went from bad to worse. Our child came home with a diaper rash that was so severe that it required a medical prescription and for our child to stay home an entire week. We sent our child to this facility for only three more days after the diaper rash healed. On the third day, our child was sent home without a shirt on. When we asked the front desk why our child's shirt was not on our child's body, they informed us that our child spilled water on the shirt, and they didn't have a backup shirt. They did not even bother to notify us to let us know our child needed a shirt. Had they cared enough for our child to notify us, we could have immediately resolved the issue that day. Needless to say, that was our child's last day. I hope any parent of a prospective attendee finds my review helpful. For any parent whose child still attends this facility, you may want to pay close attention to how your child is being treated, especially if (i) you don't pay on time or (ii) you have ever complained to the staff/director.

So caring, kind and invested in our daughter and her well being. I can't say enough about the two guides in her classroom as well and how nurturing they are and dedicated to her development. I couldn't trust them more! We get regular updates via the story park app on her progress and they are quick to respond if I ever reach out with a question. We are so impressed with her development over the past 3 months. Her vocabulary has skyrocketed as well as her independence at home. The school has so many events parents can participate in and really feel a part of the Montessori journey alongside the student. We immediately felt welcomed and a part of this amazing Starwood Community!

My son was in the toddler program and is now in the Primary program. As far as we're concerned,…read morehe'll go here through 8th grade. It's a second home for him, where the adults are warm but highly professional and reliable. My son has learned how to care for his environment, for his peers, he's learned how to bake, set a table, share a meal. The faculty is communicative and our son feels so loved by not just his peers and teacher, but everyone there. The school events are always enjoyable and educational. The campus is beautiful and adheres to Montessori above and beyond the 4 other Montessori schools in the area I toured, interviewed, and considered. We trust Starwood wholeheartedly with our son's safety, well-being and education because after 4 years, we absolutely know we can.

This Montessori is TERRIBLE! My boys were at Cypress Creek for 2+ years and I have seen the place…read moredeteriorate with the change in management. It went from being one of the best Montessori's in the area to a nightmare. Classes are without Lead teachers for months, teacher turnover is extremely high, zero communication from the school about events and changes to the school calendar made last minute without any consideration for parents. The new director is not receptive to feedback from parents, and it seems to be common practice for newly hired teachers to scream, shout and use inappropriate language to control the children. All the above concerns were brought up with the director several times, but she did nothing to address the concerns! Please stay away from this Montessori, parents!

Our three older girls all came to Cypress Creek, and now four years later, our son is coming here…read moreagain. I would never think to put my kids at any other place. Ms Faye and all her teachers are caring, loving, and take amazing care of my kids. Coming back to the school after the gap, still ALL the same teachers who cared for my daughters are still at the school. You will never find such consistency at any other school. We are blessed to have found such a gem of a school to help partake in bringing up intelligent, well mannered kids. My three older girls all learned reading at age 4, and I'm sure with this environment, my son will have all the same opportunities. Have a visit and see for yourself!

This is truly an amazing school to send your kids to! We…read morerecently moved from Plano to Prosper and were unsure about which Montessori would be the best fit for our 2- and 5-year-old children. After visiting several schools nearby, we still didn't feel completely confident--until we met Ms. Anjali. From the moment we spoke with her, we were 200% sure this was the right place for our kids. Ms. Syeda is a wonderful teacher--our 2-year-old daughter felt comfortable with her from day one. Ms. Shabana is equally amazing and brings a wealth of experience to the classroom. We are constantly amazed by the new things our children are learning every day!

We've had our children at Eldorado Montessori for 4 years now and we LOVE it there! They follow…read morethe Montessori methodology, empowering kids to take responsibility for themselves, explore their interests and strengths, and still learn and grow in a supportive environment. From classroom teachers to specials teachers to front office and everyone in between, you won't find a kinder, more supportive place. I have to give a special shout-out to Ms. Menon, one of the finest educators I've had the privilege to know. She has high expectations for students, supports them tirelessly through the learning process, and helps every single one achieve wonderful things. We can't thank her enough. And in case you're worried about kids making the transition to traditional schooling once they leave Montessori, don't. Our little one transitioned to public kindergarten seamlessly and it looks like our younger one will too.

Our daughter Ishanvi has been going to Primrose School at Deerfield since November 2022 when she…read morejust turned 4. It was a lengthy process in choosing her first school and we are very pleased to have chosen Primrose. The school and the staff have been playing a significant role in the development and growth of our daughter. Over time since she joined, Isha loved going to school. Apart from the outstanding curriculum, numerous other activities like Christmas celebrations, Easter Egg Hunt, the annual graduation ceremony, etc., have piqued Isha's interest and made her appreciate the time she is spending in school. It is to be noted that the staff put in a lot of time, effort and energy into the execution of the aforementioned events that they end up being really grand, rich and thoroughly memorable experiences for students and parents alike. The school has also ensured that they strictly meet the dietary requirements of each child. The staff also do a commendable job in communicating with us about the child's daily activities, upcoming events, payment reminders and accommodating many other requests we've made. It has been a breeze communicating with Ms. Corrine, especially, and she has always been prompt, quick and always helpful in her response. Our special mention goes to Ms. Alissa. Ever since Ms. Alissa became the class teacher for Pre-K-2, Isha wasn't just happy but was excited to go to school. We, as parents, could clearly see that Ms. Alissa genuinely cared about the kids in the class, made them all feel inclusive, provided individual care to each one of them and actually wanted them to be happy & comfortable. The very manner she greets the kids in the morning not only brightens their days but ours as well. As we drop off our daughter and drive away in the morning, we feel relieved and at peace knowing that Ms. Alissa is there to take care of our daughter. We also want to thank Ms. Margie (who in Isha's words is a very sweet teacher), Ms. Shilpi, Mr. Alan (whose high-fives instantly cheer up Isha in the morning), Ms. Suzanne and Ms. Heather.

It is such a happy, safe, loving environment where you can see how much the teachers and staff care about the kiddos. We have loved all of his teachers so much, but more importantly so does our kiddo! He gets the biggest grin going to them each morning, and there's no bigger comfort in the world than knowing you're leaving your kid in the best hands. He has also learned and developed so much during his time here. And as a parent, I've been impressed with just how much he's blossomed as he moves up to each new class.

Aimee's closeness with the kids makes them feel welcome & comfortable very quickly! My middle child is in the primary class with Trina Datta & has learned so much! My daughter has ADHD & is quite a handful, but Trina has been nothing but kind & understanding, trying to help her as much as possible. She handles my daughter & her entire class with an over-abundance of patience & I couldn't be more grateful that she works so hard for her students! She also does fun little things for the kids, like making them little gifts for the winter holidays, she even got them all bunny ears for Easter & my daughter wore hers for several days straight, she loved them so much!
