Oak Meadow has been an absolutely amazing educational experience for my family for the past two…read moreyears. My children are young (2 and 4), so it's my first school encounter as a parent, and I know the bar has been set incredibly high. The children are nurtured and deeply cared for by amazing, highly qualified and empathetic teachers who lead by example. They are genuinely excited to go to school each day, and, through the Montessori teaching method, absorb imperative life, critical thinking, analytical, and social skills in the classroom that they then take home with them. Oak Meadow students (my own and those that I've observed of all ages) are independent thinkers who are considerate, respectful, and supportive of one another. It's so refreshing to witness! Oak Meadow is a very special learning environment - we looked at many preschools in the area, and are consistently impressed with Oak Meadow's curriculum, teachers, and community.

The school proved to be a wonderful choice for my son's education . It has helped him develop a sound foundation in all aspects of academic learning while providing him the right kind of social and emotional support necessary for well rounded development. He has gone onto thrive in a highly competitive high school program with no issues. The personal attention and care that he received from his teachers all through his years at the school has a lot to do with this success. We have been so happy with his progress that we had no hesitation to start his younger brother in the same program a few years ago and we have been very happy with how well he is thriving at the school. If you are looking for excellent academics this school is a good choice. If you are looking for more than just academic excellence, I think there is nothing better than this school and its teachers!!

We have had all six of our children attend this school when it used to be called Wayland Academy…read more You cannot beat a school with small classroom size, curricula adapted to the individual student and loving care from faculty. With classes from pre-k - grade 6, it's the best possible start for any child's educational journey.

Both our kids did their elementary schooling there, from Pre-K and K to 5th grade. At one point the…read moreschool changed name from Wayland Academy, when the faculty took over and became co-administrators. To summarize: in 6 to 7 years, our kids never said they did not want to go to school. The teachers are superb, it is a very multi-cultural community, the class sizes are small, allowing students to work at their own pace. Either they are super bright in math or need a little more time on reading, there is plenty of resources there to make learning a great experience. They do plenty of field trips and activities, get a great foundation in being good citizens. My kids now in middle school are kind leaders who can build efficient teams and rally good people around. Not only they learnt their curriculum at an advance level, but they mostly learnt to read people and make informative decisions about whom they want to be friends with and whom they do not. If you ask me, it is the most valuable skill ever. Thumbs up for the Brighton School in Framingham!

I can not recommend Nashoba Montessori School enough! My…read morelittle one has attended NMS since she was 3, this will be her 4th and sadly her final year. The teachers are amazing and so supportive in every way helping my child along the way to reach her full potential. Nashoba Montessori is a wonderful, bright, open and well set up learning environment- a perfect, safe setting with wonderful outdoor learning/play area. The fabulous teachers show attention to detail and professionalism in everyway, always with patience,love, respect and kindness. We really feel like we are part of the family there. Every day my little one continues to grow in confidence, independence and is always learning new skills. As I said I can not recommend this wonderful school enough! I hope my now 8 month will attend in the future so I can continue to be part of the NMS family for a while yet!

They are so patient and have a wonderful routine that my 2.9 year old daughter was able to catch on to the first week of attendance. The Montessori approach is intuitive and the class is set up so that each student can independently choose what meets their needs. I am confident that my daughter always has a teacher and a role model when she needs it. We have enjoyed watching our daughters confidence grow and her interest expand.

The staff was well-trained and extremely friendly. Children seem happy on-site. The breakfast and snacks were included. The daycare accepted credit cards. It was easy and free to park on their private parking lot. A playground was available on-site. - Cons: The lunch wasn't included. The daycare closed relatively early at 6 p.m. from Monday to Friday. It was closed on week-ends. You will have to provide diapers and wipes. The inside of the facility was a little bit dark.

The preschool does offer weekly live guitarist who sings with the kids, also to its credit it has a talented Spanish teacher who makes this language interesting. Kind teachers. Program is planned & executed, BUT, parents don't get daily updates on activities, only weekly. Only ONE teacher per class. For most activities they combine the classes which creates chaos. Last year I saw one teacher dealing with 9 boys ages 4,5. The were constantly combined with my son's class 3,4 yr olds. During break times none effective or lacking adult supervision. My child was pushed down the stairs TWICE!! And they didn't even know! My then 3 year old was hit a few times in school & only once did they report it, AFTER, I started contacting the school with my concerns. My child loved his friends & teacher but was terrified of two older kids who would be combined at activity time. The teachers are GOOD, but supervision between class & at break time is lacking. Staff chatting instead of being present in the moment & comments like " boys will be boys" in response to your concerns.

EXCELLENT preschool. We have sent 3 of our children through Sunshine and have been extremely…read morepleased with the curriculum, activities, and especially the well-trained and attentive staff. They regularly kept parents posted of all things going on, and were very responsive if there was ever any concerns. I couldn't imagine trying to keep so many little ones occupied, learning, and happy, but they did everyday! Our kids still look at their Sunshine memory books all the time and loved their time there. All of our neighbors put their kids through and had very positive experiences as well, as all of our kids were more than ready for kindergarten when that started! I'd give Sunshine and their talented staff more stars if I could.

He was four years old when he started, so preparation for kindergarten and socialization with other preschoolers was key. I have seen him gain so much self condidence and independence. He runs in his classroom each day eager to meet his friends. It is so cute to see. At the end of the day, he is never ready to leave. He's having so much fun. This is our last month at Shrewsbury Children's Center and I will miss the all teachers and staff. I feel my child has had a wonderful learning experience at this school and would highly recommend it for children of any age. He is ready and excited to be starting Kindergarten in the fall.

She may seem strict, but she's actually not once you get to know her and just respect and do the things that she wants you to do. She will do so much for you throughout your Sullivan years. This school is not bad at all and I do recommend you going even if you don't have a choice like I did. I wanted to go to Forest Grove, but they kicked me out over the summer before I couldn't even go so I was forced to go to my homeschool Sullivan. But honestly, I'm really glad I stayed and met these amazing peers and teachers!! The only reason this did not get a 5 star is because I think the nurses office isn't really as educated. They're mostly rude and I do think they have favorites when it comes to students. And I've also met a tiny amount of teachers that were a little disrespectful and unhelpful but overall this school was the best school I've ever been to, and I've graduated happily with my classmates alongside with my teachers who were there with me! And one thing I would like to mention is that I was on red team. And in my opinion, the best team with the best teachers and any type of staffs! :)) and also the lunch there isn't as great and it's also very hot in the lunch room during the summer, but overall it's good here and there when it comes to lunch!
