We have loved House of Montessori (HOM)! The teachers have been great. They love the kids and they also provide excellent education. There are also a lot of good educational activities that are brought to the age 3-6 room, such as music lessons, Spanish, yoga, and soccer. Our only complaint has been that when we started at HOM over 3 years ago, about 1/3 of the teachers were black and 2/3 were white. Then when new management took over a little over a year ago, most of the black teachers left, such that now only about 10% of teachers are non-white. I’m guessing this exodus occurred largely because a more stringent education requirement was added to be a teacher.

I have had a child attend Curious Child Montessori Preschool since 2014. The people are what make the school great! All of the teachers know my children by name and seem to really enjoy their job. My children are consistently engaged in worthwhile activities and given opportunities to be challenged at the appropriate level. I also appreciate the copious amounts of outdoor time. My oldest is heading off to kindergarten in the fall and is more than prepared academically. We absolutely love the staff and school!

I only gave the school 4/5 stars because of some changes that were made this year. One factor in choosing the school four years ago was the school year schedule. As a teacher, I liked the opportunity to spend extra time with my children during the summer without having to pay extra fees, etc. The small school atmosphere and schedule made it an affordable...

Montessori Educational Centers Replied: Thank you so much Cassandra for your wonderful review! We are absolutely super appreciative and thankful for the amazing team we have here at MEC! The main reason we actually switched to a twelve month school year was exactly for that reason! Our teachers and team are incredible and we value them so much! They need to have stable and consistent employment opportunities with adequate pay and benefits, compensation packages that include 401k matches, health insurance, discounted dental and vision...
