After having worked as a lead teacher Montessori Children's House located in Warminster, I love all…read moremy students and did my best as a teacher. However, I regret to say that I cannot in good conscience recommend this school. In comparison to other Montessori schools, the quality here falls short. The school operates on a very limited budget for education, resulting in a lack of essential classroom resources and a deficiency in authentic Montessori materials in the toddler class, such as practical life, math, and language materials. Instead, teachers are advised to purchase cheap supplies from dollar stores. I had to request parents to provide practical life materials like fruit and vegetables for lessons. Unfortunately, when we ran out of materials and the children were eager to engage, I found myself apologizing, explaining that we lacked these resources due to no weekly budget in the class - such situations compromise the authenticity of the Montessori approach and create challenges in delivering quality education. Moreover, the cost-cutting measures extend to the parents, who are required to provide snacks, water, and even plastic bags for the whole class on a monthly basis. The school fails to provide basic supplies like plastic bags for diaper changes, forcing teachers to borrow from each other. The frequency of fundraising events and requests for parental contributions raises questions about the allocation of funds. When it comes to safety, the school placed a much older child who frequently hurt the younger children in the toddler class. We experienced instances such as a child pushing five children consecutively on the head. Two teachers in my class reported the issue to the head of school, who responded with "I can't deal with it now, I am busy" and often shrugged off similar events. This lack of concern for the safety and well-being of the children in the school is deeply troubling. Furthermore, the hiring practices are questionable, with individuals who are not capable of working in a childcare setting or a lead teacher who doesn't have any training background in Montessori education being brought on board. Additionally, the treatment of employees is disappointing. Upon tending my resignation, the company unjustly reduced my pay rate without informing me and prematurely terminated my contract, depriving me of entitled paid holidays. In summary, it is sad to witness how this company prioritizes PROFIT over the well-being of its students and employees. Prospective parents and educators should be aware of these facts before considering this establishment.

Nona, the principal, is the most amazing, hands on, warm and intelligent principal anyone would be lucky to have. She stands in the hallway and shakes hands with each student, every morning, and wishes them a good day. The teachers are amazing. I can't say how lucky and blessed we feel to have entered our child into such an establishment. He used to go to another, very nice, daycare, which I referred to as "supervised arts and crafts". Montessori is a way of thinking and learning that cannot be beat. I'll recommend this school again and again.

My son Was treated a certain type of way and I believe he was targeted because I spoke out as a mother-as a parent there.

I have my son in a new school and already have seen a complete difference in how the teachers and directors care for my son and for me as well. There's a lot of other schools in the area that offer care and support for your child unlike this school. I suggest stopping around.

My oldest son attended a different school last year, and although he enjoyed it, you can tell that he is learning so much more here. A true Montessori school, the kids enjoy their work and take so much pride in what they do. The teachers are so loving and caring, yet foster such independence. We are so happy here. After touring multiple preschools, we knew this one was the right fit for us. On top of that, they are both learning Chinese, and really enjoy the dance class they have there as well.

When it came time to put my daughter in daycare, she advised against me checking this place out, saying it went downhill. I toured it, anyway, and was horrified by what I saw in the 20 or so minutes I was there. I heard childcare providers outright screaming at crying children, other workers ignoring children while they sat staring in a stupor, and it seemed like most of the curriculum involved watching children's TV shows. Pretty sure there isn't any teaching going on here-- just expensive, subpar babysitting. A lot of the place smelled like feces and urine, too. What's going on with this place???

You can pick the classes you want to take and either do the rest at home or find other venues. We took full advantage of the school, leaving only math that my brilliantly mathematical husband covered for my son and some of his peers in our own home. Stone Hill offers classical education -- the humanities and sciences, as well as language -- in small classes, at a very rigorous pace, and at very affordable rates. By high school most students qualify for advanced classes in just about every subject. Our own son elected to take college classes at Rutgers and Temple his junior and senior years of high school and now he is graduating college in three years; a huge saving for us. Stone Hill definitely prepared him for the rigors of college education. Homeschooling is a great way to develop and educate your child, and Stone Hill Learning Center is a huge help in providing a disciplined learning environment, high academic standards, and fellowship among other demanding homeschoolers. Taking a full load of classes just three days a week, Tuesdays through Thursdays, gives your student an excellent education with plenty of time for your student to explore his or her creative endeavors or for long weekend field or family trips. We are so glad and grateful we found Stone Hill Learning Center during our son's homeschooling years.
