They are attentive, polite and curious, which speaks well for their teachers. Every spring a teacher, with their class, will stop by and give the neighbors a flower plant for their garden. Also shows that the teachers get their kids to think about their community. I live a half block away and I can always tell when it's recess, so much fun and energy. Some of my younger neighbors have their kids going here. Everyone is pleased with the education their kids are getting here. Teaching is a challenging career. I appreciate the teachers here. I resent folks who bad mouth educators.

Children are able to work beyond their typical age level and explore at their own pace. At the same times, the teachers have special education back grounds so they are able to provide extra help and ideas for students who learn in different styles. Having ages 2.5 - 6 year old inthe same classroom fosters a love of learning and teaching in children. My son gets so much out of learning from children close to his own age rather than an adult. Montessori also prides itself on respecting the student and providing an environment where children learn to self direct and work independantly. Children learn to respect one another and take responsbility for their own learning. Independance is a key factor to Children's House. My 2 year does dishes on a regular basis, can sweep and mop floors, and even clean windows. These are all skills that I would not execpt of a 2 year old and yet Montessori has taught me that children are capable of doing all sorts of things for them selves. "I can do so many thing, all by myself" is sung regularly in the classroom. Contrary to popular thought, Montessori does expect children to learn certain age appropriate lessons. Instead of a typical classroom, the children are given work assignments (3 for example) but they have a choice of which to work and for how long. All that is expected is that at the end of the work period, they have worked on all 3. The children learn to self direct their learning and there is never a child sitting around "not doing anything." If a child is having a tough day, the teachers work hard to help them through it. The school also has Kindermsuik, a Library Reader, and even a Yoga instructor! The kids run their own garden in the spring and fall. They plant and take care of the garden themselves. It truly is a wonderul school. You should check it out!

I didn't realize how HUGE this place was going to be until a few days before and was nervous when I found out there were no golf carts left for purchase. Luckily, there was a free shuttle that I could use to get around the track! This place is BEYOND gorgeous. Canada Corner? Must visit during any race weekend. The trees make it a beautiful spot for shooting and watching the race. Honestly, there isn't a single bad spot to watch the race here.

There are races here in the summer months that you can spectate, and you can also race around the track yourself in go karts. You can bring your own food and picnic, and there are even camping spots on the grounds if you wanted to spend the night or weekend. I visited to do some ATV driving around the area. The ATV trail goes all around the property and is pretty adventurous at some points! I know for sure I screamed and cussed during my drive. Afterward, I visited the gift shop, which is huge and has all kinds of gifts and racing paraphernalia. It's a great place to find gifts for the racing or car lover in your life.
