The flexibility of rhe school allows for students to come a bit late or leave a bit early (or even leave for a couple of hours in the middle of the day to pursue an academic activity away from school) without the stress of "tardiness" or missing instruction time. Field trips are at least once per month and take the kids all over the Triangle to experience all of the great museums, parks, and education centers the Triangle has to offer. This is a school where gifted kids thrive and grow. They are nurtured not only academically, but socially and emotionally as well! We have been proud to be part of the inaugural year at SAGA and are looking forward to another great year in 2017/18!

Before joining Magnolia Montessori, my daughter attended another daycare for about a year. In the…read morephotos and videos, she was always very quiet and mostly observing from far away instead of joining the other kids. She often seemed like the lonely child in the group. As a mom, it honestly broke my heart a little. I even asked the teachers to encourage her to get involved more, but she still seemed distant from her peers. But thankfully, everything changed as soon as she started at Magnolia Montessori. Her confidence grew so much. She became more comfortable talking with people, and she started making friends easily. The care and support they provide are truly priceless to our family. I truly cannot thank Miss Marie, Miss Shelly, and all the teachers enough for the love, patience, and support they gave my daughter. I'm beyond grateful for the positive impact they've had on her growth and happiness.

The curriculum has been outstanding and our daughter frequently comes home talking about what she learned that day. From lessons in sharing, English, math, and simply being a citizen of the world Magnolia has done a great job. Their facility is full of fun and educational materials. Every inch is meaningful utilized to spark learning and play. The team is top notch and has made our child feel seen, loved, and nurtured. We consider Ms. Marie and MS. Shelley to be superb educators and people we trust our daughter with. They are thoughtful, helpful, and kind. We visited several preschool options in Holly Springs and I can say we made a great choice. If you're interested in an excellent Montessori program in Holly Springs check them out!

My daughter is now in 2nd grade and has surpassed all reading goals every year since Kindergarten. I give all credit to The Grove School. She loves reading and math. I recommend this school to anyone who really wants to see their child succeed in school.

On our tour of the facility Ms. Terri was thorough and warm and answered all of our questions. And once enrolled, our son Nolan loved every minute. Seemed that every day he came home talking about something funny or nice that Ms. Amy did for the class. (She's one of his favorite people ever!) He entered at 4, hardly able to identify letters and numbers, and graduated yesterday with tons of progress. He has started reading, can count to 100, knows more species of animals than any adult I know, and most importantly for me, has developed a lot socially. He enjoyed the time with friends at school so much. They are affordable, flexible and understanding of parents schedules. If I had to list a complaint, it would be that they don't have an outdoor playground/space. (But their indoor play space is pretty good, and there is actually a playground directly east of the building for an after school stop) All in all this place gets a 5 out of 5 from me and I highly recommend them for any parents of young kiddos. Kindergarten, here we come!

My eldest son has been going here for three years and he loves it. We started him in the Mother's…read moreMorning Out program (for the 1 year olds) and we LOVE Ms. Lela. She is really great with the little ones. She treats your kids like her own. I had researched about 4-5 other MMO programs and I was the most comfortable with Little Dreamers and Ms. Lela. His current 3 year old teacher is also great and he's learned how to trace letters, write his name, and do both art and science projects. My youngest son (19 months) started going to the MMO program this year and has really learned a lot from Ms. Lela. They focus on playing and learning through singing. He knows his numbers (1-10), his alphabet, "Itsy Bitsy Spider", and hums to others. Things that I really like about the preschool: 1. I like that there's a lunch bunch option where you can add a lunch hour to your kid's day until 1pm. You can change it monthly. 2. I also really like that there is a carpool lane that you can use for drop-off and pick-up. This is really convenient, especially if you have an infant or younger child who isn't going to preschool yet or who may have fallen asleep on the way for pick-up. 3. Cleanliness 4. School library where the kids can "checkout" books to read. They started that this year and my son likes to get two news books daily! 5. Option for parents night out - they offer once a month on Fridays for a parents night out. We did this once, but haven't done it since due to our kids' early bedtimes. The only thing that I wish the school had was an outdoor play area. They do have a room dedicated for play with slides and trains though so they do get some playtime. Would highly recommend this preschool, especially if you are looking for a MMO program for a 1 year old!

Primrose is one of those schools where front desk employees will say good morning to you when you walk in and wish you a wonderful day as you leave. You will see smiling faces in the hallways. When you walk in the hallway and peak into rooms, in one classroom you will observe teachers caring for infants with passion, in another room, there is a teacher reading a story with all the little ones on her lap, and if timing is right you will occasionally smell the yummy breakfast chef is cooking up in the kitchen. As for my son's and our family's personal experience with his classroom, we feel absolutely blessed and 100% grateful for his teachers and all the love, care, education, and structure they provide. It's a wonderful positive and well-balanced environment in which I believe every child is given the ability to grow and succeed. Look no further. Thank you Primrose and entire staff for all that you do!

To be quite honest my child's experience here has left me with a huge amount of guilt for leaving…read moreher here. Two years ago we moved from the Midwest to holly springs. I was eager to get our 3 year old in a program to give her some structure but also a a sense of family. At first glance primrose is elegant. I was impresses by the classical music and clean hardwood floors. I was sold! My daughter was equally as excited as I was for her to start. The first couple days my kiddo came home crying. She mentioned the boys were hitting her. I really just thought maybe she had to get used to going and maybe she was looking too much into horse play. I went early one day to pick her up and saw a very young teacher sitting with her hand on her chin as though she was bored and my kid was half naked in the bathroom with another little girl. When the teacher saw me she perked up and yelled my daughters name to hurry up as if she was doing something wrong. I was annoyed but really gave her the benefit of the doubt. Again my daughter would come home crying. Said her teachers would get mad and not tell the boys to stop hitting. It wasn't until I finally spoke with the teacher that really solidified my feelings. She had to be 20 years old which u wouldn't mind ha she not completely dismissed by my concerns and blankly stared at my questions. Her assistant was equally as vacant but more so had a grudge that I would even begin to question their supervision. As I was chatting with her she yelled in to another kiddo " did I tell you you could climb up the slide..... No!". She was clearly not used to speaking to 3 year olds in a way to discipline but also not break their little spirits. I ended up taking my daughter out and it wasn't until I enrolled her in a good preschool had a realized how amazing her experience could be! We have been at her preschool for 3 years and are so happy. I'm not very religious but the local church preschools love our kids while teaching them lessons. My daughter is ready for kindergarten and loves school. Please read this and know I shared this to save other kids from a negative experience. My heart aches that I even kept my child in this setting. She reminds me to this day " remember when I went to that bad preschool and you made me go?".. I thought I was doing the right thing and in retrospect I should have listened to my child:(
