Freehold Montessori School was my (now four-year old) daughter's first introduction to a…read moreclassroom/learning environment and we could not have been more grateful and appreciative of the entire experience. Nothing has compared to the peace of mind of dropping her off every day knowing that she was being thoughtfully developed in a safe and joyful environment by an academic staff that would embrace her individualism while instilling within her the skills to become a life-long learner. Honestly, our only regret was not enrolling our daughter sooner. While I cannot say enough wonderful things about this school, here are the most immediate that come to mind: 1. Ms. Margaret - If only we could clone Ms. Margaret and put her into every classroom across the country! She is truly an effective teacher that is passionate about sparking curiosity in her students and ensuring they are given the tools to maximize their potential. She effortlessly goes beyond "textbook" teaching to insert micro lessons about everyday life. The students are constantly learning in a fun and memorable way. Ms. Margaret also understands that every student is different, she is very tailored in her engagement. While we did not have the pleasure of working with teachers from the other buildings, I have to assume they are just as spectacular and aligned with the overall vision and philosophy of the school. 2. Relatedly, we were very appreciative of the thorough parent-teacher/director feedback loop at FMS. Parent-teacher conferences are in-depth and productive. We were given the details of our daughter's performance, saw samples of her work, side by side progress in her writing, and tangible examples of her day-to-day/contributions to various activities in the classroom. We were given the gift of learning about our daughter in a completely different setting and were able to understand areas we could reinforce at home. 3. Similarly, the school director - Ms. Yogi - is prompt, accessible and always acting in the best interests of the students. If we ever needed anything, she was very responsive, took action immediately and was incredibly thoughtful in following-up. During my initial tour of the school with Ms. Yogi, I noticed that she not only knew each student across all three buildings by name - but she truly understood each child and their personality/needs. She is an impressive leader and has cultivated a nurturing and emotionally secure environment for her students, while delivering excellence in academics. Within the first few minutes of speaking with Ms. Yogi, I knew this was the school for my daughter. Having meticulously researched and visited most preschools within the area - I can say FMS operates in a class of its own. There is no other school out there that provides a nurturing, yet academically enriching and diverse learning sanctuary. I am confident that any parent enrolling their child here will be just as pleased with their experience.

Every day my three year old says something to me and when I ask, where'd you learn that, he tells me Miss Cindy! They have done a great job with the COVID precautions and worked through any hiccups very smoothly. Even with the somewhat of a disconnect (parents aren't allowed in the facility) the staff and especially Miss Lauren go out of their way to keep me informed about my one year olds development and what we can be working on at home. We would highly recommend Kiddie Academy to anyone looking for a top notch daycare/school facility in the area.

Hope Christian School prepared her well for kindergarten, both academically and socially. Quite pleased with the Christian values and traditions instilled in the students. My second attends HCS now, and I am looking forward to my third attending as well. -- Anne All three of our children attended HCS. It was important to us that our children's preschool feed their minds and their spirits. HCS is like preschool used to be. It's about teaching children how to grow up and become great people. --Laurel HCS has shown me how a Christ-centered, academically based preschool can gently and safely usher my child from my loving arms into our world today. My child runs to an excellent, caring teacher with fantastic helpers, and back into my arms with the excitement of telling me how great his day was. He is being prepared for next year academically and for his whole life spiritually. Had I known the worth and greatness of this school, I would have sent my three older children here, hands down! --Regina I enjoyed the atmosphere in the school so much, that I became a volunteer helper in 1998 and am still volunteering today! --Cindy

As a current staff in the building, children can be difficult and it's hard when we have a lot of children at once but we make it work and make them feel safe throughout the day.

This is one of the best daycares and the tuition is reasonable.

She tells parents the kids need therapy when they are doing normal developmental behaviors. Instead of teaching the behaviors that should be used (ie not hitting, throwing toys) they punish the kids and make the kids feel like they are bad. She calls the parent of the child that got hit to pin the parent against other parents. When the daycare opened, the teachers were great and taught the kids. All those teachers left after the first year the school was opened. Now there is no learning and only playing. I wouldn't recommend this school to anyone!

The owners along with the entire staff are such kind, special and highly qualified people who really do care and give individual attention to each child and their respective families. Bloom offers a challenging and motivating curriculum, fun activities that are age appropriate and flexible schedules.

We highly recommend Bloom Academy to everyone and anyone. We will be sad to see our daughter graduate this upcoming school year but we will always cherish the moments and memories that Bloom has given us.
