    I attended this school from 1999 through 2007 when I was forced to drop out. While I acknowledge…read morethat many teachers and administrators have changed, I can only speak to my own personal experiences, I would be remiss if I did not share my story. Years K-6th were broadly excellent. A warm, caring environment with excellent educators. Mrs. Blatnik, White, Chin, and Mr. Goober were extremely positive influences in those formative years, and I have nothing but gratitude for them. All issues arose during grade 7 during my brief tenure in the (then very young) middle school program during its second year in operation. I spent my entire childhood with undiagnosed autism; I don't blame the school for this, detection and treatment was far less robust then than it was now. I do blame to school for the resultant bullying that I endured that year, and what I perceived as the cause. The middle school, especially in its pilot years, was intent on making a big show of its success placements. There was a lot of parading around the kids who were being accepted into 'elite' high schools like Western Reserve Academy, Walsh Jesuit, or a handful of others. They were clearly trying to position the middle school as a funnel of sorts to these programs. Of course, with these elite programs came elite tuition costs, and I'll just say that my family was not prepared to shell out for one of these programs. Moreover, I had no personal interest in boarding schools, religious schools, or really any of these programs. I distinctly remember Ms. Ludick's reaction at the parent teacher night when this info was brought to light. She was aghast and, dare I say, offended at the idea. Almost overnight, the atmosphere shifted. My grades took a sharp hit almost immediately. I became the target for relentless bullying from students who were already on the so called 'elite' track. It was daily, it was constant, and I was chastised when I withdrew like a turtle into its shell. And while I admit my autistic tendencies made me internalize a lot more than I should have, the rampant bullying was apparent to all, that year, including the staff. There were other students who noticed. Nothing was done. Suffice to say, there was an incident that spring where I was pushed to breaking point, and I was removed for my own safety. It is also worth noting that once I was gone, one of my good friends became the new target, for largely similar reasons. The staff knew. The staff even aided and abetted the bullies, many of whom were among the wealthier families in the program that the admins would cozy up to. The message was clear: I was not worth the investment, boasted no ambitions for them to advertise in the future, and as such was cut loose. "Open Season." I have had many years of growth and therapy to digest what happened then. I wouldn't be writing this at all if I hadn't seen some social media videos featuring alumni testimonies, and see several of the bullies being plastered up as Star Student advertisements. With the small number of reviews here, I don't expect this to gain much traction. And, as I said, many years have passed since 2007, and I cannot speak to how things have changed. All I can do is share what happened to me, and if it happens to help even one person down the road, that's enough for me.

The school teaches you how to think for yourself, how to cooperate with others, and how to be a global citizen. I was able to independently explore my passion for math and develop a ton of practical life skills at the same time. It helped me be successful at WRA and later Brown University before becoming a high school math and computer science teacher myself. I still use a lot of Montessori philosophy in my job today. Please send your child here and contribute to building a bright future of thoughtful and consider human beings!

    I wouldn't send my dog to this school, so where to even begin....between the former accountant…read moretaking a handheld to the school a year and a half ago, and that email nearly costing me a speeding ticket to get to the school that day, or the fact my child isn't welcome back after she was slapped by a boy, and then told she was viewed as a burden by the first grade teacher back in May of this year; by the former principal whose now at Cardinal Mooney. Which during that meeting, come to find, my child was threatening self harm during class. Which no one told me about until that following Friday, when the very teacher who viewed my kid as a burden walks out to my car in the pickup line, crocodile tears going, and says "your child is threatening to hurt herself during my class." Great, all the more reason for her to be done here and never see the likes of any of you again. What was once my happy little girl, is now miserable. So, she was done that day, two weeks before first grade graduation which she did not get to attend because I refuse to subject my child to anymore neglect or torture she may have had to go through there. Then it took a month after that, and reaching out to get her personal belongings left behind; had to call the private school board and get a recommendation on how to go about getting my child's things....where I was told I'd likely have to get the law involved because they aren't apart of any school board...even the private one here. So, I wouldn't trust these people as far as I could throw them. One, they have one teacher per class, not two or three like they would have you think. Most of the people there that are "teachers" are parent volunteers, or teachers aids. The tuition they list, is a grand off, plus a grand in co-op fees. They obviously play favorites when the victim of violence isn't welcome back, but the one who hits is. The funny thing in all this though, is the sheer will of just pure laziness in it all. I'm still getting emails from this school, I've yet to be removed from their lists. Why....who knows, but the incompetence, and will to overlook anything bad there is unreal.

    Even though this school has been around quite awhile, I'd call it "up and coming", Its gain…read morepopularity and for good reason. If you're unfamiliar with the Montessori Method look into it. Excellent. And the school is constantly making improvements while still striving to remain affordable to the average parent. Its the best investment you can make for your child's future.

The director was my guide when I attended and still holds the same core values and care as I remember. It caters personally to each child as a whole and thoroughly gives children guidance to become independent and the best they can be. Montessori of University Heights is the true hidden gem in northeast Ohio. The community of parents and children are more supportive and encouraging unlike any other school you will find.

My boys are now joyful learners, voracious readers, math lovers, and spiritually in-touch kids, at ages 8 & 10. Beyond academics, Maria and the teachers helped me. They provided me with calmness, wisdom, and guidance in the preschool years. During the recent 50 year anniversary of the school, my children respectfully greeted Maria and each teacher with eye contact & a handshake. This polite greeting was imprinted on their young minds. The beauty of my kids early education is now part of who they are as people. I recommend this school to all parents, especially parents with flexible schedules.
