This Montessori school didn't want a child like this in August/September of 2020. My son was in a daycare/preschool setting prior to attending this Montessori school & we had no issues with his behavior. After three weeks of almost daily calls, going from a full day to a half day, to pretty much being asked to leave I reenrolled him to the daycare/school he was attending previously. He has just finished kindergarten at the top of his class; he finished all the math units three weeks before the 2023-2024 school year ended. I feel as though this school does not follow what Maria Montessori developed for children's education.

Our daughter absolutely flourished at the center near CMC and loved going to school each day. I was nervous leaving her on the first day at 6 weeks old.

This year they created a deadline for signups and if you didn't make that deadline, they just put those applications in a pool and "will get to them at some point in the future." That doesn't cut it for me, my kid is the same kid she was last year, I sent in her updated medical form and new application, and to be told it will be some time in the future that you can start accepting my kid for before school care is ridiculous. If you are going to make me find a different solution to her before school care, it's not going to be temporary!
