If there was a way to give more than 5 stars I absolutely would. As a stay at home mom it was very…read moredifficult to start the search for schools for my daughter. As soon as we stepped into WMS we felt at home. We visited many other schools in the area and we found we compared every single one to WMS. We have never looked back. WMS is not just a school it's a community. I've never felt so welcomed anywhere in my life. Every parent, student, teacher, and faculty member has always been extremely nice to us. Most importantly they care for my girl as I would for her myself. They supply her with a place she feels safe, welcomed, and cared for. Because of this she has learned so much, gained so much confidence, and my shy girl has become such a social butterfly. There is nothing better than to hear the excitement in her voice when she shares her dat with us. Each of her teachers have gone above and beyond for her. When she first started and was nervous to interact with her peers her teachers would help "break the ice" with group play on the playground. When she would fight her naps they would rub her back until she falls asleep. When she has shown interest in learning more they have gone out to being in more materials on a subject they know she would love to learn about. When she's had days of not wanting to leave my side they have given her hugs and consoled her until she is calm and ready to start her day. I'm a "worrier" of a Mom and to know that she's in such great hands gives me tremendous peace. I could continue to go on and on about how amazing WMS is and that you should definitely send your children here, but my words can never convey how truly amazing this school and community is to us. Please take a visit, go to a open house, and I assure you'll see just how remarkable this school is too!

Just like in our corporate world, HR protects the employer and employees. The same applies to this…read moreschool. The school admin wasn't interested in fixing the setbacks experienced by parents ( plural because I had happened to speak with many more former parents about their bad experiences). Still, they weren't willing to speak up because they were hoping for a better review from the school as the kids went to private. My son's teacher was obnoxious; she had no respect for anyone. She applauded kids who were socially outranking each other and didnt appreciate the introverts or slow speakers. As a bilingual family, we were frowned upon, and our son's personality was constantly pushed around as a delay or blaming it because we were bilingual. Our interactions with the school during the parent meetings were dry. There was zero compassion and interest in your child's attitude. Extremely short days and holidays took a significant toll on us because we never felt our kid had a constant school day to settle, make friends, or learn anything. The Montessori concept is working in silo for most hours of the day; I noticed my son would pick the wrong items to match or do something terrible that wouldn't get corrected because Montessori meant independence. I witnessed this when I was there for Mother's Day. My heart is sad and angry at the same time as I type this, but I am thrilled that my eyes and brain worked at the right time before we made a mess with our son's life. He is so happy at his new school.

Before committing to CHM in 2023, we visited several preschools in the area. I was honestly not…read moresatisfied with any of the schools I toured, until I visited CHM. Immediately I knew this was a special place for my son. And our experience here with school and summer camp have far surpassed what we had hoped for. Their school motto of "grow confidently"- really illustrates the transformation my son went through from a 2.5 year old toddler to a 5 year old boy who is confident and loves to learn now. The teachers are outstanding- they really love kids and love teaching kids to embrace and enjoy learning. The administrative staff ( Ms. Kerri & Ms. Janine) are amazing and make you feel at ease and that we were part of their family . We will forever love and be a huge advocate for this school !!

If I could post 0 stars, I would…read more If you love your child, do not send them to this 'school'. We sent our child here and had to take her out after half a year. There were multiple incidents of bullying and/or kids just misbehaving and the school not handling those situations properly. I had no false hope that every kid would act like an angel 100% of the time and believe I was realistic in hoping that if and when a child would not behave well, the teachers would know how to handle it- boy, was I wrong! My daughter was scratched, pushed, hit, had her leg stood on by a boy (to which the teacher just told the other kid not to do it bc my daughter didn't like it.... Because so many people would) The straw that broke the camels back was: my husband arrived to pick up my daughter and noticed a bump/bruise on her head. He asked the 3 teachers at the door what happened. They all said they didn't know. Our daughter told us that a boy (who had done other things to her in the past and sounded to be an overall behavioral issue), hit her in the head with a stick on the playground. I asked if a teacher saw. She said no. She said she told a teacher and that teacher put the kid in timeout. Ok, fine. BUT, she happened to be one of the teachers at the door that said she didn't know what happened to my daughter.... In all the time my daughter went yo the school, we felt they operated in the dark. We never received an email about any incidents and when we brought it to her teachers attention, he said he would look into it and get back to me. Never did. After this last incident, they also said they were going to investigate and interview the teachers and get back to me with their findings. They never did. It became very obvious to me that this school was all about collecting $$, but not providing even the basic service of safety, not to mention an education. I am not an unreasonable individual, and if they had just communicated when things happened and told me how they remedied it, I would have been ok. Send your child elsewhere..... there are plenty of good schools out there. This is not one of them.
