From the owner: CFMS is a nurturing and vibrant Christian preschool dedicated to providing quality early childhood…read moreeducation rooted in love, faith, and Montessori principles. Established in 1983, our school was designed to provide a Christian experience that would benefit the children, parents and community. The Montessori philosophy of education was chosen for our school because it cultivates independence, order and inner discipline. It encourages a love of learning and a joy of discovery within a safe and stimulating environment. It is in this environment where each child can reach his full potential. Our classroom, which has been located at St. Michael’s Episcopal Church since 1996, provides a unique setting for children to grow, learn and experience God’s love. We are dedicated to serving children ages 2.9 through 6 years old.

My children attended the bilingual Montessori School of Sharon and it is truly the best decision we…read morehave ever made. The head of school works tirelessly to provide a safe and loving environment for our children. In addition to the beautiful environment and dedicated staff, the school offers a curriculum like no other schools that we visited. My oldest started reading at 3.5 years and read at 2nd grade level prior to transitioning to private school. We are amazed with our daughter's math skills and how meticulous and kind she became. If you want to invest in a school that will support your child's development, visit the Bilingual Montessori School of Sharon. I highly recommend BMSS to every parent seeking school. Best investment ever for our children!

I relocated to another state and left the school with teary eyes-…read moreFrom the moment I entered BMSS, I knew it was the right school for my children. The warm and welcoming attitude of the administration and staff made us feel right at home. I was astonished by the progress that my children made during their first few months attending the school and onwards. BMSS offers a unique and enriched curriculum that not only aligned with my expectations but also suited the growth and development of my children. During their 4 years at BMSS, they achieved success academically, socially and emotionally. I can still see today the lasting impact that this environment made on them. Even more satisfactory was the progress of my autistic child. My husband and I were unaware of his condition until the Head of school kindly shared her observations with us. They literally changed the trajectory of his life. The Montessori education coupled with the school's tireless efforts towards my children's education was second to none. I would recommend the Bilingual Montessori School of Sharon to any parent seeking a remarkable environment for their children where they can acquire lifelong skills.

I included pics of the daily progress paper your staff handed out at the end of the day to ensure you that we went to this glorified daycare. It's too bad the school has such a high turn over that they don't know who attends the school and perhaps they all pretend to not remember people. But they will sure kept our money and deposit without a problem when we refused to send our child back the following semester after paying in full. At the end of the day HOMS gets visits from other Montessori people because it is not up to par with the rest of their programs the state has to offer. This school offers the bare minimum of what other real Montessori schools offer.

Ms. Michelle is incredibly patient and caring. My son formed a strong bond with her, and she played such an important role in helping him transition into attending school. Because of her support and kindness, he now genuinely enjoys going to school, which means so much to our family. Mr. Roy is also fantastic! He's energetic, fun, and the kids absolutely love him. He brings so much positivity and excitement to the classroom. It's clear that the staff here are dedicated to creating a warm, supportive environment for the children. We're very grateful for the care and attention they've given our son.

From the very beginning, the team at eBridge Montessori made us feel welcomed and supported -- even conducting a virtual tour and handling the admissions process remotely while we were still preparing for the move. That flexibility and care really stood out to us. Now that Kai is attending, we can truly see the difference eBridge is making. He's become so much more independent, confident, and socially engaged -- and he absolutely adores his teachers and classmates. The teachers are incredibly nurturing and seem to intuitively understand what each child needs to thrive. We also love how they involve us as parents, offering guidance and resources to help us bring Montessori principles into our home as well. It feels like we're learning and growing right alongside him. eBridge has already helped us feel like part of a real community here. They are living their mission of being a "bridge" -- not just between children and learning, but between schools and families. We were even able to start Kai with half days during his transition, which we greatly appreciated, and he'll be moving to full days in January. And we're already planning for our younger daughter, Vera, to join when she's ready! We couldn't be happier or more grateful. If you're looking for a warm, thoughtful, and truly child-centered school -- eBridge is right for you!

Our son was only 20 weeks old when he started at eBridge. He is now 4 1/2 and he still loves it…read more Our 2 year old daughter also began as an infant. Both kids are very happy there. The teachers and staff are warm and very caring. The school treats staff well, and so they stay on for years. My son still sees a teacher he had as an infant on a regular basis. The staff and program focus on what's best for the kids, and ask for a level of engagement from parents that may be greater than a regular daycare or preschool. Nothing is mandatory, but it does encourage a level of interaction that has truly bred a nice community. I'm so happy we found eBridge and can be a part of this special place.

I currently have two boys attending Blue Hill Montessori School, and I am thrilled with our…read moreexperiences there from start to finish! Our older son is in their Kindergarten program now in one classroom, and our younger son is in preschool in the other. My kids are not easy - they are loud and active, and the older has been diagnosed with Aspergers - but the teaching staff has been nothing but supportive, loving, and nurturing with them both, while instilling respect for the school rules and the peaceful classroom environment that they maintain. They have both grown and matured so much through their time here. There is a wealth of experience in the teachers (some have been at the school for 30 years!) which speaks to how invested they are in the school and its mission. As a bonus, I love some of the "extras" they teach to the traditional Montessori curriculum - Spanish, music, art and yoga have all been big hits with my kids. I'm glad that whatever awaits them in their future academic life, their first experience with it is one that they love and that has been so friendly and welcoming.

They have both thrived in the Montessori environment ... and have learned so much in such a short time. It is amazing to see such young kids making maps of the continents, Europe, the US and being able to identify small countries/states on a map (I think most kids are not exposed to a map of Europe until middle school!). The children have a weekly Spanish lesson, as well as music and yoga. I love the emphasis on a peaceful classroom, helping each other and showing respect to each other and the environment. In the afternoon Enrichment Program the younger children do amazing craft projects that they are always so proud of and the Friday afternoon baking projects are also a lot of fun. We have developed some wonderful friendships with the parents of our kids' classmates. It is great to meet parents that place the same emphasis on early childhood learning and the Montessori principles of independence, self- direction and respect for each other and the environment. The children also become very good friends and we continue to have regular "Kindergarten" reunions with my older son's classmates. I cannot recommend the school enough.

My daughter is now in kindergarten after three years at Wellesley Montessori, and she is thriving!…read more I credit the wonderful teachers and staff for giving her the building blocks to be successful in her kindergarten year. My son is in his second year, and he has made amazing strides from toddler life to being a pre-K student. He loves his teachers (a different room from his sister, but just as wonderful) and will be as ready for kindergarten as her sister. The families at the school are wonderful as well, and I feel like it's been an amazing home away from home for my kids. I will be sad when my youngest moves on from the school. They both learned so much, had so much fun, and made great friends! It's also been a practical choice for our family -- with two working parents, the ability to have our kids there from 7:30-5:30 has been a life saver!!

This used to be a great…read moreschool, and it still has some good teachers (not all, teaching staff is mixed), but with the loss of Miss Martha, a teacher there for 20+ years, the addition of a relatively new director, who has no imagination or problem-solving skills, does not know the local area, and is not very nice to the children, the school has taken a nose dive. Combine that with a tiny playground, not a lot of indoor space, and you do not have a great situation.

Our child has been attending Greenwood for the past two years, and we absolutely love this school…read more The teachers are warm, nurturing and passionately dedicated to their work and the children. The school is run according to authentic Montessori principles, and takes its pedagogy very seriously. There is a wonderful sense of peace and tranquility, as the children are lovingly encouraged to become independent learners. The school grounds are beautiful, including a real wildlife pond with a swan family (and from which the occasional frog will visit). Pure magic! What a wonderful place for a child to start to experience the world and acquire the foundations for a lifetime of learning. This is an outstanding school.
