I say that because I attended a public school system in New Jersey. 98%-99% of my student body went on to college, so I can't complain about my educational experience. This is the first experience I've had with a private school system and it was nice. They offered the students a diverse educational experience as well as after-school activities. Along with strong parental support, I'm sure all the students will do fine in life.

Watching our youngest finish up her VPK year feels incredibly bittersweet. All three of our…read morechildren have attended this school, and I truly cannot recommend it enough. We actually started at a different preschool in 2016 with our oldest child, and had a very difficult experience there. Finding this school afterward was honestly the best thing that could have happened to our family. Our oldest child finished here, our middle child then started here (while still in diapers in the youngest class), and now our daughter has done the same and is graduating VPK, having learned and grown so much this year! The academic curriculum is outstanding, and the teachers and staff genuinely pour their hearts into everything they do. Beyond academics, what truly makes this school so special is the loving, nurturing, and familial environment they create for the children each day. The students also learn life skills, language skills, and even gardening, and extracurricular activities such as karate, dance, and soccer are offered as well. This school has been such a meaningful part of our children's early years, and we are truly sad to say goodbye. We are beyond grateful for the love, care, and dedication shown to our family over the years.

You can feel how much they care--communication is great, the teachers are attentive, and the entire team creates such a positive experience. The environment is beautiful, clean, and thoughtfully set up, making it a place where kids feel comfortable, confident, and excited to come each day. Our child has grown so much here, made wonderful friends, and truly looks forward to school. We couldn't be happier with Royal Palm Montessori Academy and highly recommend it!

I am a parent who has always tried to support my child's school, but after a deeply troubling and…read moremishandled situation, I feel compelled to speak out. My daughter came home with visible bruising, and as a concerned parent, I reached out immediately -- emailing the principal and administration and messaging the teacher, since it was discovered on a Friday and the school was closed over the weekend. I received no response. First thing Monday morning, I went to the school in person. Principal Barbara Leon was unavailable to speak with me. I met with Ms. Michelle, who listened and said she would try to gather information. She later called me back with very few answers and oddly asked that I not speak with any other parents about the incident. We then followed up in writing with Principal Leon, as well as administrators Julia Pease and Holly Oliver, requesting records and any available footage from the day of the incident. Again, we received no response. Instead of answers, we were met with a DCF report filed against our family -- and a visit from both police and a DCF officer. We were never contacted directly by the school with any findings or follow-up about what actually happened to our daughter. Adding to our frustration, Principal Barbara Leon sent a message to other parents stating the incident had been handled -- despite never once addressing or confronting us, the actual parents of the child involved. She took time to reassure others, but gave us no communication, no transparency, and no accountability. Aside from completely neglecting the incident, the way this was handled shows a serious failure in leadership and concern for student well-being. We are left with growing concerns about what the school may be trying to hide. As parents, we deserve the truth -- and above all, our children deserve to be safe.

The staff is great but we should have known on the very first day (when the other parents and the…read moreteacher barely acknowledged us) that this was not the right school for our daughter. She was treated very badly by the girls in her class, they were very mean and excluded her without even trying to get to know her. To the staffs credit, they did make an attempt to get the girls to interact & be more inclusive but you can't turn mean kids into nice ones. I ended up pulling her out. Horrible experience here. The students are rude and clicky. The two stars is for the staff and their efforts to make it right.

We are so thrilled to have found Puffin for our daughter. I can go on and on about how special this…read moreplace is. It always smells so clean when you walk in. It feels safe and warm. This was the first school our daughter went to so needless to say, she had never really been around other adults or kids without us. We knew right away when we came here that it would be a place we call home. The staff go above and beyond for every student individually and they really accommodate all the kids if they're going through something or need extra support. They send photos and communicate daily through an app, which really makes it easy to know how your child is doing. They make holidays and birthdays so special for the kids. Puffin is a bilingual program, so it's been really beneficial to us that our daughter is coming home saying her colors, numbers, and days of the week in Spanish!! She's learned so so much and they really continue to build on the strengths of the kids. They are challenged to be their best academically, while also given the tools to make strides within their social/emotional development. As a mom and a teacher myself, I can see that the staff are so professional and trained to handle any situation. When my daughter is having a tough time, they comfort her with ease--do her hair, sing with her, read and color with her..there is nothing the staff can't do and haven't seen before. They're truly superheroes and they're always smiling. I appreciate the team at Puffin and their approach as a program!!
