My child has been at this school since preschool. I would say that Lower Elementary is definitely a…read morestrength, as some other reviews have mentioned. However, Upper Elementary was a different experience. In my opinion, it's not worth it. The academic pace feels slow and behind. You might get lucky and end up in a class where the teacher sets higher expectations(I heard from my child there is only one class), but otherwise, it's hard to justify staying that long just for academics. If academic progress isn't your main concern, it could still be fine. Overall, this school may is not the best fit for fast learners. Teachers focus on keeping the class balanced, which often means slowing down advanced students to match the majority's pace.

Due to moves, our daughter has been to two other schools, and WMS has been exceptionally better…read morethan the other. The environment is calm, positive, and incredibly welcoming. The student-to-teacher ratio is wonderful (23 students and three teachers). The school administration and teachers proactively communicate. The lead teacher in Dogwood is an absolute blessing. She has been very attentive to our daughter's anxiety, and our daughter has blossomed in this classroom. The school celebrates many cultural holidays, and our whole family has been enjoying the community events hosted by parent volunteers. The school sends visibly sick children home, as they should (not our experience with previous schools). We are thankful for fewer sick days because of this. Our only feedback would be to increase recess/outdoor time and to add additional greenery to the outdoor areas.

Extra effort by these teachers gave were discouraged. -Watch out for teacher that talk well but do not follow up. These teachers will get your child evaluations wrong. Also, kids at this age are unable to determine if the teacher is bad or good. Look for attitude or behavioral changes in your kids and act quickly to reduce the damage of bad teachers. The damage maybe done quickly but recovery could take years. Our first child had a horrible teacher and we did not even know it until was too late. Once we took action we noticed positive changes. -Teacher turnover. Most years our kids get different teachers. Often the new teachers were worse. -Involuntairy Diana fund which is suppose to goto family that need extra help. Not sure where all the is spent. -administration -Not qualifed family members working as teachers and admins. -We taught them better at home barely trying than the school -Did not handle covid situation well. Montessori is all about the teacher relationship not with the school. Certificate of Montessori is also based on teachers which give the schools the claim to be certified. There are not great options for Montessori in the Bothell area. I heard Issaquah maybe better. Woodinville Montessori especially is all about making money from the most wealth and unfortunately this Montessori is the same, albeit less obvious than Woodinville. If we were to do it over we might of taken Heritage preschool with some emphasis on play based learning. It was not worth the extra money and time. We spent extra hoping the investment will be well worth it for our kids. After 5 years we are still believers of play based learning but this was just okay. When we had great teachers it was worth it but they were not around long enough for us.

In 4 months with them he learned more than he had in 18 at his previous school! Not only that but he learned how to learn! They are also amazing at working with all ages and dispositions. I cannot wait until my 22 month old can start at teeter tots! I cannot recommend this school enough. Please don't let the lack of a fancy or modern facade deter you from sending your child here. My son is starting kindergarten this fall and I am sad he won't have Judy and Linda but know my youngest will benefit from their experience and wisdom!

I already left a detailed review on Google for Kids Country Canyon Park about the wonderful…read moreteachers and the nurturing, caring atmosphere the team provides. Here, I especially want to highlight the director, Haleemah. Haleemah truly does her best to address parents' concerns. I can't thank her enough for always listening to my worries about my kids and responding thoughtfully and professionally. She takes concerns seriously and handles them in the best way she knows how -- and that ultimately gives me so much peace and confidence as a mom. As parents, feeling heard makes all the difference. Haleemah creates that sense of trust and partnership, and that is not easy to find.

Kids Country is their home away from home and I truly trust their care and direction. So thankful we found kids country.

Our family has had the pleasure of being part of Rainbow Montessori School for the past two years…read moreand are very sad our time with Jen, Barbara, and Martha has come to an end. We enrolled our youngest (of three) at Rainbow after a very poor experience with a her former school and are beyond glad we did so. Rainbow does so many "things" correctly. 1. They say what they will do, and they do it. Plus so much more. Our daughter came home knowing the essentials: courtesy, kindness, respect, numbers, letters, and counting. Shockingly, she also came home at the end of the year able to read, how to recognize 20+ flags, and to recognize and communicate with a few ASL and German phrases. 2. She was loved and respected as an individual and a community member. The teachers love their students. They also show students love through boundaries and self responsibility -something that transferred to my kiddo's behavior at home. 3. Rainbow is the best "bang for your buck". My daughter is going into Kindergarten better prepared than her sisters who were in full day preschool/PreK programs that were 5 days/week. 4. They encourage and guide students but never force them to "do" academic work if a child is t ready both emotionally or cognitively. They encourage kids to play and try new activities. Only complaint: We wish we knew about Rainbow five years sooner for our other two kiddos.
