We were very excited about Hudson Country Montessori School but left deeply disappointed in the…read moreteachers' and administration's tolerance of discriminatory and bigoted language used in the classroom including during class discussions. We raised concerns to the teachers and administration about a pattern of homophobic, racist, and anti-immigrant language being used at school including, at times, during classroom discussions in front of the teachers and were told that the classroom includes students with "differing beliefs" and that our child, who raised objections in some of these instances, needed to be coached at home to tolerate this discriminatory language at school in order to avoid conflict with classmates. We repeatedly explained that our concern was that the language being used in class was not a case of "differing beliefs" but bigoted and discriminatory language that specifically targeted protected groups based on race, religion, immigration status, and identity and that allowing it to continue created a hostile and toxic environment for students from any of those groups. To this, we were told directly and in writing by the head of school, "If every classroom moment is interpreted through the lens of potential third-party offense, classrooms can quickly become places of controversy rather than learning." We decided to withdraw our child's enrollment in the middle of the school year because, after this response from the head of school, the behavior continued in the classroom and we no longer felt it was a safe environment. If your child or family is part of any historically marginalized group, we would not recommend this school. They are able to speak very eloquently about their commitment to diversity and their mission to ensure that no student is targeted, excluded, or harmed based on race, religion, or identity -- but when it comes time to demonstrate that commitment they fall very, very short.

We are also seeing positive behavioral changes with her at home. After only two months in the program, she is speaking about and demonstrating more physical organization. She is getting individuated attention for reading and math, which we love. She continues to be passionate about learning, and there is really nothing better! Being one of the older students in the classroom, she is also learning about leadership, and taking that home to model behavior for her younger sister as well. We are thrilled!

Expectations are high, and not everyone is the right fit, but those who are here truly thrive. Every year brings new, meaningful programs -- this year a college-level psychology course and hands-on science research like the Oyster Project. Our Headmaster is caring, involved, and deeply loved -- every student's best friend, yet strong, thoughtful, and fair. The teachers are talented, inspiring, and passionate about what they do. The level of enthusiasm across the school is outstanding. What truly sets T-D apart is its spirit of unity. Students of all ages know and support each other -- it's heartwarming to see a first grader call out to a senior by name with a curious question and get a kind smile in return. This sense of belonging and genuine care fills the campus with joy. Thornton-Donovan isn't just a school -- it's a living example of what education should be: knowledge with heart, discipline with kindness, and community that lasts a lifetime. When you are a part of T-D, you are family.
