My wife and I researched the Montessori preschools in this area of Northern Virginia (Herndon,…read moreReston, Sterling). MPS was far and beyond the best of those we visited. I remember walking into sunlit big room and thinking, "This place has a special feeling to it." It is a home, filled with love and light, not a storefront location with a retail feel to it. The proprietors know their craft well and have been doing it for some time. Our daughter started in their first pre-primary class and is graduating Kindergarten this year. The amount of growth she has made is tremendous...I'm actually worried that she will be too bored in her first grade classroom. In terms of pricing, the tuition is in line with other Montessori preschools in the area. Nothing shocking, thankfully, and the rates have stayed relative to the cost of living in the area. The only downside to his place was the gravel parking lot, but that has now been paved.

It's the perfect size for starting education, and really feels like a family. After three years, I'm still always shocked by how calm and serene the classroom is, even with 18 kids ages three to five in there! The director is warm and enthusiastic. Our teacher (Mrs. Kashif) is so lovely and we couldn't have asked for a better start to our kids' education.

The teachers are very thoughtful about transitioning the children and moving at their own pace. The outdoor space is lovely, and allows for planting flowers around earth day, releasing butterflies, raking leaves, and for fun outdoor lessons in addition to playtime. The daytime work consists of practical life, language, math, art, science and geography activities. If your child stays for aftercare there are lots of arts and crafts. There is usually a soccer program you can opt into in both fall and spring, and other special classes as well. I've seen the students become very attached to the teachers, enjoying their days and not wanting to leave early. It's a welcoming and kind environment.

Everything and everyone - teachers, their Programm, the playground - I was very picky about finding the school that provides great outdoor activities as well as curriculum, they have it all. Each class has their own garden, they take care of plants, bugs and nature. Math, reading, Art Programm, field trips - amazing! We miss them all! I wish we could stay there for a 1-st Grade too (and it's worth mentioning we have great public schools in the area and we still are very happy that we stayed for Kindergarten)! But first of all - you can trust your child being with caring professionals in a wonderful environment and it just feels like family there.

You will not find a better Montessori preschool for your little ones! Everyone who works at CMS treats the children like they are their own. They have so many engaging and specialty programs and a terrific summer session, too! Multiple staff members have been there for a long time (two decades or more), and every one is highly trained and competent. The school itself is clean and organized, with large classrooms that are set up to encourage learning and exploration. The huge playground is tree-covered and always monitored. There are fun family activities sprinkled in throughout the year like a kid's carnival and spring tea where parents are invited. If you're looking for a place where your children will enjoy learning and be valued as individuals, you will surely find a home at Community Montessori School.

They both love the school and their teachers. My older child has several health issues and the public school was not able to keep him safe and learning there for kindergarten, and we are so grateful to the RMS staff for their wonderful care and support for him during his 1st grade year. Before we found them, I wasn't sure if I'd have to figure out how to homeschool him (while working) but he's very social and I really hoped to find a school environment for him that would work. I am grateful we did. They have been very flexible to meet his needs and integrate him into the school community. This was the first daycare/school setting for my 2.5yo and she cried the first two weeks but then adjusted and is happy there. She is very attached to her teachers and classmates. She loves going to weekly French class, music class and PE, doing her work and going to recess each day. RMS has many engaging school-wide events for the children, from the International Peace Day celebration to the International Day luncheon, from the Thanksgiving potluck to the Mother's Day and Father's Day events. The upper classes have many activities too, including monthly field trips, ice skating lessons for 8 weeks in the winter, a spring play and spring art show and more. The director is kind, personable, and always makes time to talk. I was so impressed that during the first week of school, she already knew all the children by name and took time to greet them. We are looking forward to another wonderful year at RMS.
