    If you are an African American parent considering this school, please read this carefully…read more By the time we pulled our 2yr old out of this school, it became painfully clear that the environment was deeply prejudiced and borderline racist. She started in April 2025 after thriving at her previous Primrose location, where she was confident, happy, and excelling. Within two months at Lantana, her teachers completed an ASQ assessment and rated her as not meeting expectations in nearly every category. Let that sink in. Our daughter, who is bright, energetic, and constantly praised for her intelligence by everyone who meets her, including her pediatrician, was suddenly portrayed as behind across the board. Just before leaving Old Orchard, she had an ASQ completed there and was thriving in every category. When I questioned leadership about these shocking results, I was met with gaslighting. I was told the assessment was different. I was asked to complete one myself. I was made to feel like I did not understand my own child. Her former school was equally shocked. Around October and November, the narrative shifted. We began receiving complaints that our daughter was not listening, did not want to come inside from the playground, and had put her hands on other children. Typical two-year-old behavior. We acknowledged that like many toddlers in the "mine" stage, she sometimes reacts when a toy is taken from her, and we assured the school we were actively working on that at home. Instead of working with us, they escalated it. They began sending behavioral reports home and recommending speech therapy and play therapy for a child who speaks clearly and in full sentences. Two years old and speaking in full sentences. Yet teachers, some of whom are not even certified, felt comfortable suggesting therapy as if something were wrong with her. They started using loaded words like "tackled" and "going after the teacher" to describe a two-year-old little girl. I am still trying to understand what exactly a toddler is capable of doing to a grown adult in a classroom that is supposed to have at least two teachers present at all times. Yet we were told no other child or staff member did anything and that our daughter simply decided to kick and hit other kids unprovoked. That does not align with reality. Our daughter has playdates. She spends weekends with her cousins. We have never witnessed anything close to what they described. I have voicemails from leadership, including the owner Erin Lundie, using carefully chosen language that clearly attempts to label our daughter as aggressive and violent. At one point, I became so disturbed by the sudden change in her behavior that I genuinely started to question whether something inappropriate was happening at school. This is a child who used to love school so much we sometimes had to force her to leave at pickup. Suddenly, she was having meltdowns at morning drop-offs. Another major red flag was a call from their HR Director, Shannon Tilton, about our daughter not wanting to nap. I explained that she is at a stage where naps are inconsistent and she would prefer a quiet activity. I was told verbatim, "We do not force them to sleep, but according to Texas law they are required to stay on their cot for the duration of nap time." That is completely false. Texas regulations require that children who do not sleep be offered quiet activities. So not only were they mishandling our child, but they were also misrepresenting state regulations to justify it. I could go on, but the bottom line is this: the leadership team and teachers either failed to properly do their jobs or were actively shaping a negative narrative about our daughter. We were paying over $1,600 a month, they were not doing us a favor. Since removing her, she is now attending a new daycare, and she is thriving once again with only positive remarks from her teachers so far. Zero issues. No behavioral labels. No therapy recommendations. No exaggerated reports. Just a happy, intelligent child in a supportive environment. That tells us everything.

    By far the most organized Primrose School .The management staff very helpful they set you up for…read moresuccess. You will get planning time ,low student to teacher ratio,they care about you having the appropriate trainings will answer questions .I loved the fact the the owners are involved .Personally I think this school should be a training school for others looking to work at other Primrose locations !

    We made the difficult decision to withdraw our daughter from Guidepost Montessori Flower Mound in…read moreAugust 2025 due to serious administrative issues and ongoing problems with classroom management, including situations involving teacher behavior that we felt crossed appropriate boundaries and resulted in our child being treated poorly. As parents, we did not feel the concerns were handled with the seriousness or urgency they deserved. Following our withdrawal, Guidepost Montessori confirmed in writing that we were owed a refund totaling $2,156, including deposits and an overpayment. We were told a refund check had been requested. Unfortunately, nearly four months passed without receiving any refund, despite repeated follow-ups. We contacted school administration, regional management, and were later informed that refunds were being handled by a new entity after a change in ownership. Even after being redirected and providing all documentation again, we received no payment and no response for an extended period of time. The lack of accountability, communication, and professionalism--especially after concerns related to our child's well-being--has been extremely disappointing and stressful for our family. A school that promotes trust, care, and Montessori values should demonstrate the same responsibility in how it treats families, both emotionally and financially. I strongly encourage prospective families to ask very detailed questions about administration stability, classroom oversight, and refund policies before enrolling.
