I…read morechose this school because I felt that the Montessori style would be good for our kids, and I really liked the family-type atmosphere at Frankfort. With my oldest daughter graduating from Montessori Kindergarten this year, I can say without hesitation that the curriculum, the teachers and the environment at Montessori have been instrumental in shaping the confident, intelligent, respectful little girl that she is today. I am continually amazed at how much they have learned - my Kindergartner reads at a 3rd grade level and my 4 year old reads at a 2nd grade level. The teachers genuinely care about the children and they do a fantastic job of nurturing each child's natural talents and strengths, as well as giving the them them the tools and confidence to develop their weaknesses.

Their teachers genuinely care about the children and they go above and beyond to help them grow and develop both socially and emotionally as well as academically. They truly mean it when they say they focus on okay based learning. The extra curricular activities are awesome and are a great way to help your child make new friends. This is a loving community of parents and teachers focused on the positive growth and development of our children. Cannot say enough wonderful things about this school!!

The church has a nice facility for preschool and the director was always very responsive when I…read morefirst met with the school. The standard of education is also very high and reflected when teacher's present your child's work, improvements and what is expected for their grade level, I think that is a big plus. Unfortunately, this school did not work out for us. The teacher was nice but I did not care for the assistant teacher. It seemed the students were a drag and burden for her, particularly when they needed help. She kind of groaned, rolled her eyes at the thought of winter when preschoolers most likely need help with their coats and boots. These are preschoolers I speak of here but the mentality was figure it out on your own. Now I understand parent responsibility but this was to another degree. It was pretty much a disgust face by her with hand washing, where other preschools help the kids. Not saying teacher is supposed to wash the kids hands but just being present & helping if needed. I had a meeting with them about our son which could have been best resolved with them saying my son was not ready for preschool or that he needed a shorter schedule. I have now learned that happens where children just need another year before they start preschool or maybe just need a shorter schedule, but it was implied like something was wrong with him. We immediately took him out of the school. I was very dissapointed. We ended up commuting to a preschool the following year 30 minutes from where we lived that worked way better and was worth it, given the distance. My son is now happily in 1st grade and an avid reader. When it comes to education especially in the area of early education and young children, a passion or care for small children should be a factor. The atmosphere should also be inviting and positive where teachers have a genuine interest to teach kids. This was my first born and new experience. With that said, it is red flag when teachers express any disdain for students, especially for preschoolers who are learning what school is like. Looking back, I believe the teachers were inexperienced and not qualified. I would not recommend this preschool.

We've had a wonderful experience with All Day Montessori since 2021. The teachers are warm,…read moreattentive, and truly understand how to guide young children in a way that builds confidence and independence. Our children have blossomed--gaining early math and reading skills, but more importantly, developing a real love for learning. The Montessori approach here is authentic and well-implemented, with beautiful materials and a calm, respectful environment. We especially appreciate the focus on social-emotional growth and the strong sense of community. It's a place where our child feels safe and supported. Highly recommend for any family looking for a thoughtful, nurturing start to their child's education.

She leans on policy and punitive measures rather than developing intelligent, active, curious children. She hands out $20 late-fee notices down pick up line if you're a minute late. She hands out incident reports for every single interaction your toddler has that is negative. Pinching a teacher. Pouting and not listening. Blowing raspberries. Our kid was two. We don't need paperwork because she blew raspberries. Needless to say, we didn't make it through the school year. They're uneducated in childhood development and would rather place blame around, particularly on the children, than work with families to develop healthy kids. Do not go here!

It's a family business, so that isn't going to change. But that feels like such a tiny part of my Hello experience- maybe a half dozen emails a year? The teachers do a great job communicating with parents but it isn't primarily on email. It's in person at pick up or drop off, it's notes home (sometimes handwritten!), it's three detailed parent-teacher conferences each year, and it's the option to visit on "take your family to school" days. If you are online desperately trying to read between the lines to figure out what will work for your family (I've been there!), set up a tour and meet Ms. Natalee. You won't regret it.

I'm a McAuley mom, but I admit I had serious misgivings when my daughter--after shadowing at a…read morenumber of other schools--insisted that she felt McAuley was "exactly right." McAuley was our rival school (I'm an AOL grad) and was, back in the day, noted for being snobby, clique-ish, and "fast." (But one never says nice things about one's rival, does one?) My main concern was that McA was so BIG and I felt--from hearsay--that its athletics program was its focus and my budding actress/writer/academic nerd would be lost. I am happy to say that I was WRONG. My daughter immediately found a group of very nice kids who were also grade-conscious. The drama dept (and this is coming from a Longwood alum, now-closed Longwood having had an A-one drama dept. for generations) put on professional productions. My daughter was nurtured and challenged and she found mentors who truly cared about helping her meet her goals, including a close friendship with a retired Sister of Mercy who has been a great emotional support to her. She loved every minute of her high school experience. Best of all, for my husband and me, is that McAuley reinforced our Roman Catholic values. Our daughter was given service opportunities and got a lot out of her Kairos retreat. The theology department is traditional in the best sense of the word: they demonstrate to the students how to live as followers of Christ. My daughter thrived at McAuley. She got into the college of her choice, and is starting this next phase of her life with humor, self-confidence and optimism. I am sorry that one of the other reviewers had such a bad experience at McA. I know that since she attended, the administration has changed, so maybe a lot of graduates made the same complaints which the new staff/admin has tried to address. But at least the reviewer will have some insight when she helps her children pick a school. I hope her kids have the same experience my daughter had, albeit at a different school.
