It's very comforting as a parent knowing your child is in great hands and be cared for by loving individuals. The teachers are very informative. They believe in thoroughly communicating with parents.

I have the unique perspective of being a parent of two children in different learning classroom…read moreenvironments. My children also have experienced transitioning from one environment to the next due to age and readiness of skills. Here's a few examples of what I love about my children attending Park Cities Montessori in their crucial early years of life. The skill set of building concentration on one activity and putting it away before moving on to the next is huge. It teaches a sense of order, helps build patience and perseverance within a task, as well as learning how to take turns and wait until the work becomes available. No matter what activity the children engage in, there is a focus on the process and the beauty of slowing down. There is also ample opportunities for the children to experience nature. There is the crucial benefit to circle time and singing with one another and building camaraderie with one another as a class family. Zero screen time is a huge piece of what makes PCM great because it encourages children to use their imagination and engage in exploration when boredom arises. The practical life skills that my children have developed is incredible. When out in public, the amount of strangers that compliment the table manners our children have at such a young age is a testament to the time they spend at PCM. We put the work in at home, but it is with the guidance and advice from PCM that has led us down such a successful path. Plus it's super cute to see our 20 month old walking everywhere he goes with his hands behind his back. Finally, one irreplaceable quality that PCM staff demonstrates is the love they have for each of their children. My son was enrolled in Nido from 9 months old- 18months old. His bond was so strong with his Nido teachers that after he transitioned to the toddler environment, he would constantly want to show them the new things he was learning and show off his new glasses. The staff always made time for him and made him feel seen, even at a young age. My daughter started in the toddler environment when she was 2.5 years old and transitioned to the Children's House environment a month before she turned 3. Changing environments was worrisome because she was going to be part of a larger class with new teachers and it's always hard to start anew. However, she was always filled with joy and looked forward to going to school. She would get sad when the week was coming to an end and I know that's because of the love she had from her teachers and the love of learning they instilled in her. I cannot thank these ladies enough for everything they have done for my children. I also have a unique perspective being a toddler teacher at PCM and have grown very attached to my class of children. We learn all kinds of skill sets together from putting on our shoes independently, to what it means to listen and create friendships with each other, to learning endless vocabulary, as well as learning how to navigate through big feelings with one another. The children have become a part of me and will forever hold a special place in my heart. Tears fill my eyes as I write this review because I'm so grateful for Park Cities Montessori. Do yourself a favor and get on the waiting list- fast. You do not want to miss the opportunity for your children and family to join an incredible community.

After meeting the director Carolyn and her teachers, we knew immediately we made the right choice. PCM has become a second home to our children and the teachers have become surrogate parents to our girls while we are working. They have both grown leaps and bounds over the two years they have been there. Reading, writing, vocabulary, independence, confidence, practical life skills - academically and emotionally I couldn't be more thrilled with their progress and I credit PCM with fostering all of these qualities in a loving and positive environment. Reinforcing kindness, independence, and friendship with classmates, I couldn't have asked for a better home away from home for them and will be very sad when we have to move on to kindergarten! Highly recommend this wonderful true Montessori school!

One incredible teacher in particular didn't just teach me academics; she helped shape the person I am today. Carlisle gave me the confidence and curiosity to keep growing. After Carlisle, I continued my education at Christ the King, where I went on to receive three awards, then Ursuline, and now I'm proud to be at Fordham University. At every step, I've carried the lessons and values I learned at Carlisle with me. If you want your child to succeed--not just in school, but in life--The Carlisle School is where that journey should begin. It's more than a school. It's a place that builds futures. Thank you so much Mr. & Mrs. Carlisle for everything!

With Mrs. Carlisle's intrinsically sound education with detailed, intuitive guidance, my daughter entered Armstrong Elementary School prepared for all schooling experiences beyond preschool, kindergarten years! We have enjoyed returning for summer instruction between the regular school year as well. The individualized manner of instruction including traditional/classic education with outdoor play, and balanced routine is something I simply cannot fully express other than stating the growth and maturity that I witnessed in my daughter was profoundly positive. Just a beautiful gift. God bless the Carlisle School! May it continue to cherish, shelter, and foster our young brilliant children for another 45+ years!!

They provide one of the most affordable early-education programs in the entire area -- truly a fraction of what many preschools charge -- yet the quality of education is unmatched.

My child has grown so much academically and socially since starting here. We feel grateful every day that we found this little gem.

The staff is extremely unprofessional. There were incidents of the assistant head of school speaking negatively about parents to other parents. There has been SEVERAL times where I walk into a class to pick up my son and see the extended day guides on their phones and not paying attention to the children. 2. The guides are careless. My son has come home many times with dry food or glue on his glasses to where he couldn't see out of them. If the staff cared, they would take the 1 minute it takes to wipe his glasses off. He's also come home with dried glue stuck in his hair. This is also something that could've been cleaned off with water in one minute. 3. The head of school and assistant head of school DO NOT have your child in their best interest. They have their behinds in their best interest. - they did not want to advance my son into the children's house class because of a minor speech delay and NORMAL toddler behavior. They are NOT ACCEPTING of children who don't act and talk just like theirs. 4. They rarely upload progress reports or pictures of your child's daily activities. 5. They have new staff coming in and out of this school monthly it seems. If your child has some type of developmental delay, DO NOT enroll your child here. It is a waste of time and money..and quite frankly, energy! I'm extremely baffled with the fact that they aren't accepting of my son when they talk about loving and caring so much for these kids. They are deceiving. They will make you feel like it is your fault! Don't let Jamila or Sydney manipulate you.

So far we've had an amazing experience in Nido, Toddler house and children's house. We are here for the long run and can't wait to see the school continue to grow.

After moving to a new daycare, I realize how complacent I was for putting up with mediocrity and sometimes insufficient care. I do hope they can turn it around with the new director.
