    Great school and camp, simple, up-to-date, and age-appropriate. I really enjoyed checking this school out and love the emphasis on nature.

    MDC is the most nurturing school and welcoming community. I could not recommend MDC to another…read morefamily. When we first moved from Honolulu to Doylestown, we were thrilled to find a school that felt like home and not only educated our children but helped mold them. Every child is recognized and understood for his and her own gift and unique personality. Best decision we have made!

    I sent my child here about 12+ years ago because I had heard such good things about the Montessori…read moreprogram and how kids can learn at their own pace, which I thought was good for my daughter as she was ahead academically of most students in a traditional preschool setting. However, she still needed to work on some of her fine motor skills. When we got there on the first day, she was EXPECTED to know how to hang up her own coat with a hanger in a closet. She was only four years old at the time, and had never done anything like that before. As the parent, I tried to show her what to do, so she would know how to hang it herself in the future. However, when I tried demonstrating, I got scolded by the teacher for showing her what to do! I let that slide, and she soon learned on how to hang her own coat etc. But, after that, the shenanigans continued on. My daughter complained that the two teachers yelled a lot, were not compassionate, and would not help her if she needed help with classwork. One time, they were doing a handwriting activity of some kind. My daughter did not understand the directions given in the book. Like any student, she decided to ask the teacher for help and to explain the directions so that she could do the assignment. The teacher yelled at her and told her to figure it out for herself, even though she had already tried to and was very confused! They told her she wasn't allowed to go out for recess until she had figured out what to do. My daughter eventually told me what had gone on and I decided to contact the school. The teachers told me that she might be "developmentally delayed" or even have special needs. Keep in mind, this was a 4 year old! This is all because she asked for directions on an assignment!! I am happy to say now, that she is going into her Junior year of High school taking all AP and Honors classes and does not have special needs. Every child learns at their own pace, and I thought that was what Montessori school promoted. I was sadly incorrect, especially about this preschool.
