She enjoys it and is learning a great deal. She thrives in a montessori based environment where she has the ability to learn thorough creative play.

Seemed like a great Montessori blend and we felt like it was going to be an awesome fit! My child was due August 11, and we gave them a deposit and "enrolled" him on March 15. I told them at that time - and the lady wrote it down - that I would take 12 weeks off with my baby before I returned to work. They told me no problem and to just call them when he was born to determine his start date. I did exactly that. I called them 1 week after he was born, told them my return to work date of 11/7 (he was born 3 days after his due date, so he wouldn't be starting daycare any EARLIER than expected), and they told me that they wouldn't have any room for him until 12/19! They also said, "We have to make sure that another child is walking before then, so the very earliest we could get him in is the 19. If that child isn't walking, we'll have to push the date back further." I explained to the lady on the phone that this was going to give me 6 WEEKS without childcare and she asked me if I could get help from family or friends until then. Ridiculous! I don't have family nearby to help with childcare (if I did, I wouldn't be enrolling him in daycare) and all of my friends work during the day, too. When I asked for my $75 deposit back because they didn't hold his spot, they basically scoffed at me and said tough luck. I'm completely appalled. Don't enroll your child here - they may make you wait on another child's development so your kid can start daycare, and you'll be stuck scrambling to find a place (as if the early weeks after having a baby aren't stressful enough as it is). Totally let down and disappointed. I want my $75 back.

It was a matter of days before our oldest came home with bite marks on several occasions, in addition to other injuries at the hands of other students. Most recently he was hit in the face that resulted in a swollen handprint on the side of his face, and kicked in the face during story time the very next day which split his lip open. Our youngest - 18 months at the time - was repeatedly bit in his classroom, leaving very defined and swollen bite marks, some of which broke the skin. He was scratched across his face and neck, and given a black eye by another child who hit him with a toy. Several bites and other injuries went unnoticed by teachers who had no idea our child was injured when we inquired about what had lead to the incidents. These incidents happened in the matter of 3 weeks. The administration of this school is defiant in their approach to ensuring the safety of kids in their classroom. We repeatedly asked for changes to be made to prevent our kids from getting hurt, only to be met with opposition and called liars by the assistant director Kaitlyn Japikse and owner Mark Reinhart. The teachers who assisted us were promptly reassigned to different rooms that were not of their choosing out of retaliation from the owner. Mark and his staff do not follow any disciplinary action plans, document the children who cause injury and refuse to remove kids from the room due to their belief it does not reinforce positive behaviors and violent behavior is "developmentally / age appropriate". Mark will also tell you to take your kids to a different school / disenroll you if you do not agree with their approach that severe injuries in their classrooms are developmentally appropriate and the result of normal childhood behavior. The disgraceful treatment of families by Mark goes against everything this school states they advocate for and we would not recommend this school to anyone.

Not sure where one of the reviewers got their info re: safety. For years there have been two glass doors at the front of the building; the first one unlocked to allow shelter from the elements and the second door was always (automatically) locked. Now both glass doors are always locked and there is a reflective coating on every window so one cannot see into any part of the building. There is heavy duty security on every door and window on the building, in fact. Sadly/luckily there were government grants to help them protect against gun violence. If the front office staff is tending to something away from their offices, there is a doorbell and someone comes to the office.

I rarely leave reviews, but I feel obligated to share my experience with the admissions process at…read moreCentral Montessori Academy. I first applied for my child on May 14, 2024, and received confirmation. Over time, I was told he was on the waiting list, and later that he was first on the waiting list. Then that there was no waitlist and administration had changed. I remained patient and continued to follow up appropriately. Since then, I have reapplied and followed up multiple times across the past two years. Most recently, I submitted another application and reached out again only to receive no response at all. I understand that staff may be out of the office at times. However, a complete lack of communication and follow-through over an extended period reflects a breakdown in process, not just timing issues. As a parent, it's frustrating and discouraging to feel like your child's application is not being actively managed. I genuinely like what this school represents, which makes this experience even more disappointing. Strong schools should have strong communication especially in admissions, where families are trying to make important decisions. At this point, it's difficult to feel confident in how prospective families are handled.

I have nothing but positive things to say about AAK! We enrolled our daughter (21 months at the…read moretime) about 4.5 months ago and our son started at 14 weeks back at the end of January. We've been extremely pleased so far with the care they're receiving. Our daughter is really thriving. She transitioned from an in-home facility, so it was a big change for her. They do such a great job of balancing letting them play and go wild while also keeping structure and learning. She naps well, eats well, plays well, and is constantly learning new things. Her teachers have also been a huge help recently with potty training! The teachers in her class are on the younger side and have the energy it takes to run around with a bunch of two year olds all day Our son is doing well too! He's been napping well, he's getting his bottles on time, and is a pretty happy little guy every evening when we pick him up. The primary teachers in his classroom are ladies who have likely already raised their families. They are very loving and affectionate and also have the patience it takes to deal with crying babies most of the day A HUGE selling point for us is the camera system. Personally, I cannot even begging to put a price on the peace of mind I get from being able to check in on my kids whenever I want. Whether I am just missing them or want to check in for other reasons (has my daughter peed her pants and had to change clothes today? Ha) it is really really beneficial. Each day we get a paper for each child that says when they went to the bathroom/had their diaper changed, when they napped, when and what they ate, etc. For control freaks like me, this is great. I'm a "the more information the better" person. Anytime we have had comments/suggestions, they've been addressed and implemented immediately. For instance, we asked if our daughter's teachers could give us more feedback on her days and they immediately started writing little "high/low" recaps on her papers for us. We asked if they could give her a late afternoon/early evening snack to help with her "hangriness" on the car ride home and that same day they started an additional snack. Long story short, we have most certainly not been disappointed with our choice!

Overall not a great experience for us personally. Some teachers are absolutely amazing (especially…read moreinfant room and age 2) but the preK room was a mess this past year with a ton of turnover from the teachers to the point where I didn't even know who was in my child's classroom. Then one teacher decided to hit on my husband which made him super uncomfortable and he refused to do dropoffs for quite some time. My kid is far from perfect which we know and understand but they had me convinced there were serious issues at play so we put my child into therapy and had them tested for ADHD and personality/behavior disorders. All the tests came back negative and the therapist and counselor couldn't figure out why we were there since my child was considered a normal 5 year old testing boundaries and understanding feelings. My child has attended many birthday parties and they are always praised for being the best behaved child there and we have few to no issues at home. All poor behavior seems to be related to AAK. There are cameras in the room so you can check in often but the teachers rarely have control of the classroom and they are often on their phones which I brought up to the front desk staff multiple times to no avail. The high turnover for the room also results in teachers with various discipline styles and not always age appropriate. I have saved all communication with the center and I have an email from the center telling me that they believe in ignoring bad behavior which is why they don't talk to my child when they are upset. While I understand the concept, this often led to escalation that could have been avoided by verbal communication and respect. One discipline action was to have the child write "I will not disrespect my teacher" over and over again.... Did I mention this is a 4&5 classroom where they can't read yet? In another example After the news shared about a school shooting my child came home and said that the teacher told them that happened because kids didn't behave!!! I was furious on that one as my child was convinced misbehavior led to getting shot. When my child was finally expelled for violence we never received a written letter nor an incident report but instead were just told on the phone that my child wasn't welcomed back. The other parents and I have a group text and no one heard the same story of what happened and I still don't know what all happened that day (I imagine the truth is somewhere in the middle of what the center, the kids (including the other involved student), and my own child have told me). Based on the other reviews on here I imagine the daycare will reply back back blaming me and my child as they usually do but I just recommend any new parents talk to other parents before enrolling and talk to parents with children in the upper classrooms who have had experiences. We were there 5 years before my child was expelled and as a result I also pulled my second younger child which is a shame because they loved their teachers. But I just couldn't risk them ending up in the same situation as the older sibling. If you do go here I also recommend Not letting your child move up classrooms early as they get bored quite easily and routines are the same. My child was in the last classroom since 3.5yrs old (even though its a 4&5 room) and they were learning the same things at 3.5 as 5.5yrs so there is no division in the class for different coursework based on age or intellect. We have since moved to a new daycare and my eldest is doing amazing!! They are being challenged intellectually, have had no behavioral issues, and are loved by their teachers: Either the change in centers changed my child or nothing about my child changed but the issue was with AAK. I debated posting a review but its important that parents to talk to parents. Everyone will likely have a different experience and I'm sure some people will have a wonderful 5 years there but this was just our experience and even if we are an outlier I felt it needed to be shared.
