Update - over the last few months the school director, Cheryl Roberts and the lead teacher,…read moreFernanda Cuevas have gone so far and above what I could ever hope for from any school. Not only do they continue to help our daughter grow and give her the personalized attention she needs in class, on the playground, in daycare. But they have gone to the whole way to the mat for her to advocate for the essential services she will need to continue to learn and grow. Our daughter may well be stronger and even safer years after she graduates from AMS because of their limitless advocating for her. Separately, our daughter is now communicating at what an independent assessment has said is a level 1.5 years above her age group. And she's an increasingly confident and determined little person. Someplace else, she might be reciting more things by rote or I don't even know what skill someone might need a toddler to have. Instead, she can and will tackle anything. It just doesn't occur to her there's something she can't do. They are an enormous part of that. And just great partners in all aspects. I'm a better mom because I know them. Arcadia Montessori school is not just a school of magnificently talented, dedicated and kind people. They *love* their students. They advocate for and protect kids way beyond what one could reasonably expect from anyone other than immediate family. They just bring tears to my eyes - more than I'd like to admit! And just yesterday when I went to pick up our daughter who otherwise has deep separation anxiety said - mama, can you come back a little later?

Both of our kids have attended Arcadia Montessori School and we could not recommend this school…read moremore for young families. Both kids started at AMS around the age of 2.5, after they were potty trained. Both absolutely thrived in this environment and saw incredible development milestones throughout their time at AMS. The teachers and administration at this school are simply incredible. Each teacher and administrator showed an incredible amount of genuine attention and affection for our children. As children move through the school, through the different classes across age ranges, and through their development, each teacher has age-appropriate and individual child specific support for the little ones. We unfortunately started at this school during Covid so we had limited access and engagement early on. However, as things reopened, we had an ability to come to the school for events, come make independent visits, and engage more in the day-to-day activities of our kids. Under the leadership of Mrs. Cheryl Roberts, our children were provided with an incredibly supportive environment to learn, grow, and to most importantly be kids. Our children showed incredible development throughout their time at AMS. I can confidently say that their reading, speech, math, and life skills developed significantly because of the attention and help of the teachers and administration of the school.

My son is experiencing anxiety & depression and I have to consult with a psychiatrist soon because he didn't receive the support he needed at school.

When I was in 3rd grade, I was assigned a report on Robert E. Lee. As a child from an immigrant…read morefamily, I didn't know who he was or the history behind the Civil War. I completed the report with my mom's help, writing about what we thought were positive things about an American general -- because no one, especially our teacher, explained otherwise. Instead of using that moment to teach or guide, Mrs. Olson embarrassed me in front of the class. That experience stuck with me even now. Looking back, I realize how important it is for teachers to be compassionate and culturally aware -- especially toward students who may not have the same background knowledge or support at home. This experience made me feel small and ashamed for something that wasn't my fault. This trauma I still think about today and always lingering in my mind, it will never go away. I hope the school now focuses on helping teachers better support students from diverse backgrounds and to use empathy, not humiliation, as a teaching tool.

My child has been attending here for the last 5 years. For us, this school has been a great…read moreexperience for our family. Our child is a sensitive artistic type, and most of the teachers we have had are understanding, and work with my child's style of learning. The staff is caring and attentive. They know my child by name, and are aware of my child's needs. Any issues we have had have been dealt with in a compassionate way, with my child's education (both academically and socially) as the utmost importance. We can't afford to donate lots of time or money to the school, but we have always been treated equally, like other families. Are there cliques, of course, this is true at every school. Are there teachers that are not as warm and fuzzy, yes, just like real life. All in all, I feel my child is getting a great education, is safe and cared for, and will be a better member of society from attending Baldwin Stocker. I'm not discounting issues that a few parents have had, and I'm sorry if there have been others that have had problems there. I hope they found resolve to their situations. The parents I speak with are happy to be part of the Baldwin Stocker community.

It wasn't until they saw my brother in law watching that they went to console my nephew. Obviously we pulled him out of the school. So scary to think that people like this watch our children.

We were very fortunate to have our daughter join Clairbourn's Junior Pre-K Class led by Mrs Rankin…read moreand her TA, Ms Macchi. My daughter was attending a Montessori school prior to our looking into Clairbourn, and I felt that she needed more opportunities to perk her growing curiosity in life. Clairbourn School definitely has an abundant resources and opportunities to provide! What really made me so happy about switching over to Clairbourn was their strong emphasis on teaching and instilling kindness and respect for one another. Clairbourn also really felt like a family, a very caring and welcoming community. Every event they put on is so carefully thought out. Their back-to-school STEM event was amazing, the Grandparents/Parents Appreciation Days were so special, their Entrepreneur/Family BBQ was so much fun and their Christmas Show production was so well put-together. Unfortunately COVID hit us all by surprise in March 2020. I applaud how quickly Mrs Rankin learned and adapted to providing a virtual learning setting for the remainder of the school year. She personally dropped off weekly activity kits for my daughter and surprised us with a photo book at the end of the year with snapshots of our daughter's remote learning journey. We were looking forward to joining Ms Rubio's Pre-K class this past year, but due to LA County's Safer at Home mandate, their preschool was not able to open for in-person learning for Fall 2020. In the meantime, their head of school, Dr Patzlaff, and their lower school director, Mrs Paciorek, were very attentive and provided guidance on age appropriate activities our kids could engage in and continue in their development. They've been very communicative throughout this past year and very flexible and understanding of each family's situation. Your child will be loved at Clairbourn School--200%! You will have no doubts.

Looking back, choosing this school was the absolute best decision we could have made for his early education and development! Every single teacher here is exceptionally nice, patient, and genuinely invested in the children's growth. They create such a warm, welcoming environment that my son looked forward to going to school every single day. What we love most about the curriculum is the perfect balance it strikes: Strong Academics & Creativity: They have an impressive academic foundation that fully prepared my son for his next big step into elementary school, but they always keep it full of creativity, imagination, and fun. Endless Activities: The school keeps the kids engaged with a wonderful variety of activities that brought out the best in my son's curiosity. Amazing Care: As a parent, peace of mind is everything. The school safety is top-notch. Plus, it is incredibly convenient that they provide two healthy snacks and a nutritious lunch every day, which my son loved. If you are looking for a safe, nurturing, academic, and creative preschool that feels like family, I cannot recommend this place highly enough.
