There is no school in Houston like The Post Oak School. It is a rare and special gem, and we are…read moreso grateful to have found this amazing place of learning, community, and kindness. We have been part of the school for 10 years and have experienced multiple classrooms and grade levels across 3 children who each started in the Young Children's Community (as toddlers). Our eldest is on the verge of entering the Middle School, and it is clear that her experiences at the school thus far, along with the experiences of our other children, have established a deep love of learning, curiosity, self motivation, and innovation. It is such a special place. If you are looking for a place where your kids can both excel academically and also understand the importance of kindness, gratitude, and service, this is the school, and it is without equal.

This is a great school for pre-K through Middle School. When I first learned about this school, I…read morecould not believe I hadn't heard about the amazing Montessori method before. As a member of the Association Montessori Internationale (AMI), this school is one of the top. The children learn thorough academics, develop a true love of learning and exploration, and become very independent and responsible. "The Post Oak School is an educational leader both among Houston's top private schools and among the more than 5,000 Montessori schools across the country. Post Oak serves students from age 14 months through 8th grade, and is one of the U.S.' oldest Montessori schools (the oldest in the Southwest and one of only three Houston AMI schools). It has attracted an accomplished team of faculty and staff and built a campus dedicated to learning. The Post Oak School helps shape consistently high achievers."

A growing school district with a beautiful administration building…read more Students are obviously the focus of this school district as the walls are lined with their praises and new schools are always being built. It's really exciting to be a part of such changes. It's especially amazing to experience such changes from the aspect of a young student, a community member, and an employee!

Teachers are extremely overworked and not treated with proper respect, neither are they valued…read more There are kids in this high school that cannot even write legibly and they still graduate from high school. If you are looking for great education, AVOID the PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM. They are extremely bureaucratic, slow to change, and students don't get the best education. The district spends too much money trying to accommodate illegal immigrants and they hire assistant teachers for them instead of using their resources wisely to give the students that are US citizens the best education. If you apply for a job, it can take months to finalize the application process. The Human Resources department is not responsive. They simply don't care. The administrators just work for the paycheck. Aside from the beautiful new building, I cannot imagine a reason why anyone would want to go to this school. The students are overstressed with too much technology and have no physical books. The school knows that the students cannot learn as well without books, but they still don't care to do anything about it. Teachers cannot teach creatively because they have so much administrative work. The school district does not respect employees limits, boundaries, or personal time. it is common for teachers to work, evenings, weekends, holidays, and while on vacation. I cannot recommend this school district to anyone.

The school is a nurturing, loving, encouraging and clean environment and all of my boys have thrived while they are there. My elementary aged kids still attend the after school program Monday - Friday. They also attend full time care in the summer. I would recommend First Friends to anyone looking for child care, whether it's part time or full time. I honestly don't know what we would do without them.

Overall a horrible and traumatic experience for our son. Our son was sexually harassed by a school…read moreemployee who possibly touched him and instructed him to get undressed without our consent. They placed our son in a very uncomfortable position. We called the police to file a report for sexual harassment and a detective is currently investigating our case. Due to the incident and us calling the police, our son was expelled and the head of school then profiled and discriminated our son. Who knows what else they sweep under the rug. Our son's teacher never went out of her way to get to know us or contact us to tell us about our son's progres, behavior, needs, etc. in class. We found that odd. So I started calling/emailing her to check on our son. They claim to care about children but don't go the extra mile to do so and admitted to not having the resources.
