We have been thrilled with this school. Our daughter always looks forward to going to school, and has interesting stories when she comes back home. She is progressing well. She moved to this school from another Montessori so adjusting here was instant. The teachers are pleasant and patient. I would highly recommend.

Not really happy with this place at all. Not a standard place to put your children at. The director is very rigid and does unnecessary punishments. This place has not much too offer and would hurt your childs emotions . The school uses any opportunity to get closed beyond the actual holidays and they request you to bring snacks and goodies all the time . I was not happy with the behavioral aspect of the director at all and would not recommend this place to anyone.

My daughter started here Nov-2015.She has progressed greatly.She loves going to school and doesn't have any complaint.Teachers help children work on projects for every special occasion,I think that is a great way to teach children.We were told that they are going to introduce STEM based education,that's good.
