My husband and I made the tough decision to move our toddler from the daycare he had known since he…read morewas 6 months old to Monty's Montessori. We noticed at the last daycare, he would come home irritable have excessive rashes, dirty, along with staff communication issues, screaming at drop off, dirty/broken equipment, and so many other issues. Immediately at Monty's, we noticed a difference. The teachers are very clear, caring, and sincere. The equipment is so well maintained and shared well with classmates. Now both of my sons attend Monty's and my toddler sprints to class every morning. My infant is always smiling when he sees his teachers and both classrooms have great communication. Any questions or concerns we had out of curiosity has been answered by the front office and everyone has been extremely polite. We love how engaged the staff is with the families and how receptive our kids have responded to the changes. Our only regret is not having moved our toddler sooner and to join the Monty family years ago!

Our family ultimately decided to withdraw our daughter from Monty's Montessori because it was no…read morelonger the right environment for her. Over time we experienced ongoing communication issues with administration, and concerns we brought forward were often dismissed rather than addressed in a constructive way. As months went on, the interactions with administration began to feel increasingly uncomfortable. Instead of working collaboratively when concerns were raised, responses often felt defensive or confrontational. As a parent, it started to feel like bringing forward normal questions about my child's experience was met with pushback rather than support. There were also situations where things discussed privately seemed to be talked about openly in the office, and unfortunately our child overheard comments that made her uncomfortable. That was very concerning to us as parents. In addition, there were basic care concerns that added to our decision. There were days our child came home having barely had any water, and when we asked about it we were told she needed to refill it herself, even though she sometimes struggled to open her bottle. Individually these things might seem small, but over time they created a pattern that made us lose confidence in how concerns were being handled. The final straw for us was an incident involving inappropriate content being discussed among the children. At that point we felt it was necessary to remove our daughter from the school. Every family's experience may be different, and we genuinely hope the school improves in how concerns from parents are handled because the children deserve a supportive and respectful environment.

I would however challenge anyone to find a Christian among the staff, clientele, and teachers. In particular, it was found out that a teacher had been practicing a pagan ritual during the Halloween season. She had additionally invited the children and a few parents to participate (i.e. burning candles and making offerings to the dead). When "called out" about this ritual, the staff and teacher made "life very difficult" to put it mildly. This is simply one of many occurrences. Before enrolling, please do your "homework" and ask around the community. There are other options, as far as Christian schools.

It's a bit older and some locations need a touch-up, but I love how the staff and students value it! The MPR seemed to have gotten a remodel so I think the school is currently in a remodel phase! The front also got a fresh coat of paint and a new mural! It's good to see the district supporting the sites. As for the classrooms/rooms, again they're a little older but very spacious. Even the trailers have a lot of room to walk around. I was happy to notice each room has a smartboard, handy projector, and large tables. All the kids seemed comfortable. The lounge and working room is a bit small and crowded, but the restrooms are great in there! Most of the staff has been quite friendly and helpful, Hemmerling has a good school community.

A year ago, my family and I made the daring move from Los Angeles to Beaumont. We finally started…read morelooking for a day care center for our 3 year old daughter in April, 2024. We were very nervous but knew the many advantages my daughter would reap from the experience... From the tour, my daughter and I fell in love!!! We were able to observe all the classrooms in action. Even the littles were doing arts and crafts! It was a beautiful sight. We patiently waited for her start date. And in August 12, 2024, we finally got a spot! Ms Daisy is her teacher and she's a true gift! My daughter has a lot of energy and was not used to a structured setting. But Ms Daisy has been patient and empathetic as my daughter became acclimated to this new environment. Every night, my daughter organizes her school uniform, and every morning she wakes me up excited to head to school. She comes home and shows her work with pride. She even gets excited to do her homework. My daughter absolutely loves Young Scholars and loves Ms Daisy! (The third week of August, one week after my 3 year old started), we were soooo fortunate that a spot was available for our 18 month old daughter. Before we inquired about availability, we never planned to enroll our baby girl in day care that young. But we saw how happy our 3 year old was and knew Young Scholars would be a good place for our baby to grow up at. Ms Cynthia has came into our lives as the baby's teacher, and has been a light! From enrollment, I addressed my daughter's speech as an area of concern. Both Ms Rosie and Ms Cynthia have taken the time to observe and unofficially have shared their observations. I say unofficially because providing recommendations takes time and progress reports are their "official" findings... I'm a special education teacher, I'm well aware that a school can't diagnose a child nor can they give recommendations right away. It's vital to gather data, especially when my daughter is still developing. but in the meantime, I appreciate the updates! It makes me feel heard as a concerned parent... My baby girl has been going to young scholars for one month now and this baby is making strides!! Before Ms Cynthia came into our lives, my baby would wave to signal hi/bye, she'd point when she wanted something, and would cry out of frustration when attempting to converse with us. Now, she's saying "bye-bye," "help me," "please," "agua," and the list continues!! Although my baby's speech is not where a typical 19 month baby should be, she's making growth and that's a celebration to us!! She's showing confidence when she speaks and puts effort when attempting words. I love that she gets homework because it reinforces the skills Ms Cynthia is teaching. My baby enters the classroom and greets Ms Cynthia with a hug, that shows the love and trust she has in her. & I can't forget about Ms Jobana, who's been an angel with my girls! Ms Jobana is another teacher and also supports during day care hours. My daughters usually close out the day with her, and She's so sweet and attentive! I love this place so much! This is a great place for kids to learn and grow! As an educator, I know how underpaid and challenging this job is. I love that Ms Daisy and Ms Cynthia put love into their job and it reflects on my daughter's happiness. This isn't just a school/day care, it's a second home for our kids. I'm so grateful that the universe put this school in our paths because we feel right at home.

After reading Tisha R's review, it became apparent she either suffers from amnesia or simply lacks…read moreany sort of self awareness. Given her unbelievably unhinged behavior IN FRONT OF CHILDREN and my personal experience with Young Scholar, I feel it is my moral responsibility to share what I witnessed and my personal experience with Young Scholar. A few weeks ago, I entered the school and immediately became concerned when I heard screaming. I quickly dropped my son off at his class to ensure the safety of those involved. Tisha seems to have forgotten the part when she disregarded innocent children and found it appropriate to scream at staff, belittle them, and smack items off the shelf and onto the ground. I'm baffled that this woman is more concerned with limiting screen time than modeling healthy and appropriate interactions. One ought to be more concerned with modeling good character. My son has attended this school for nearly two years and came highly recommended by a family member. Before enrolling at Young Scholar, my son was diagnosed with a speech delay. I made Ms. Rosie (THE OWNER) aware of this. The diagnosis filled me with anxiety and she handled it with sensitivity, respect, and care. She provided me with additional resources and ideas. She even requested his treatment plan to implement in the classroom. His speech quickly exploded and progressed more than it had after months in therapy. I credit Young Scholar for his progress. I find it hard to believe Ms. Rosie would ever address this sort of concern in the callous way Tisha described. It took him a short while to acclimate and there were difficult mornings. Ms. Cynthia was eager to integrate him and held him when necessary. My son is resistant to naps but she tamed that beast too. Working remotely allowed me the flexibility to pop in whenever I wanted and I rarely observed an iPad being used. They are occasionally utilized during free time and outside curriculum hours. Additionally, whenever a child receives a scrape or bump, parents are given a report and explanation as to how the injury occurred. We are asked to sign the report and the incident is put in a file. Also, the ADMIN she referred to is named Ms. Mari. My son would kidnap her and keep her forever if he could. Not only is she fantastic with the kids but you can see the love in her eyes when she speaks of them. Ms. Mari is the type of person you want to be friends with and I sincerely enjoy her beyond the care she provides to my son. Ms. Rosie is the owner. She can't provide information for a superior that does not exist. I hope this parent takes time to reflect on her conduct and takes accountability for her actions. Nothing she described warranted the behavior I witnessed.

As a mother, sending her child to school for the first time, it was important that my son ended up in an environment that was welcoming, safe and nourished the whole child. Montessori Kids Land Academy checked all our boxes and exceeded our expectations. Mrs. Lalita and the teachers embody care and professionalism and show attentiveness to every child and family. They helped my son grow academically, emotionally and socially. They promoted and nourished his love and curiosity for animals and science and personalized his experiences. Parents are also treated with the utmost importance. Communication to and from the school is A+. I never had to wonder or question what was going on with my child because the schools system keeps parents updated with their children's daily activities and any occurrences. Communication is open and welcomed at all times. This was huge for me and I truly appreciate the empathy they showed me, as a mother. Mrs. Lalita, Ms. Sarah, Ms. Juli, Ms. Bena and Ms. Rosana have impacted my sons schooling experience with such positivity and planted beautiful seeds in my child that gave him an understanding that school is safe, school is fun, school is where you grow by learning and making new friends and are surrounded by caring teachers. We feel so much gratitude for MKLA, as a whole.

Also you shouldn't be so rude to a parent when they are not aware of the pick up line mind you that every time I do go in the pick up line there are two lines from different directions but now you wanna tell me, there's only one very confusing.

This is not the way we address any human being and if you are the boss of the parking lot good for you congratulations you do you in the parking lot not out on the street!!! Not very welcoming and last time I checked I'm an adult a human being just like you lady Flores!!! Speak how you wish to be spoken to because I am not the one! God bless and have a great weekend!! Maybe you should wear a sign that goes from the front to the back with directions that we can read and maybe you should stand outside on the sidewalk by the street or maybe you can't because you wouldn't be the boss of that because it's public!!! next time, choose your words wisely with parents and your attitude because I will treat you how you treat me. I do not care for rude condescending adult!! adults that like to be little other people and if I find out that you speak to the children that way, that condescending tone that you used with me I will make sure you are not the boss of that parking lot ever again!!!
