We are open enrollment for the madison district due my work. I cannot say enough positive about the district. The parent involvement is incredible! I've not seen this level of involvement anywhere else. The parents truly care about their student and other students. The longevity of the teachers and staff says it all about the madison district. It's a wonderful place to be for my daughter.

Safety: The kids are dropped off and let into a gate with…read morehundreds of other kids before school. No one really directs students where to go. It is also very open. After school kids are let out in the front of the school where several adults are standing. Anyone can take your kid. Education: This school does not invest in your student. If you did not start there in kindergarten they have no interest or the capacity to teach your student. The teachers state the classrooms are too large and only have one teacher and no aid so they don't have time to support each kid. The classrooms are old and the principal comes on a little too strong. He uses scare tactics to push kids out of the school to maintain the A rating.

The owner, who has since become a personal friend, is deeply passionate about early childhood education and is dedicated to creating a safe, engaging, and supportive space for every child. My experience with Creative Bridges, confidence in the owner's character, the dedication of the staff, and the thoughtful environment they have created, I highly recommend Creative Bridges to families seeking a preschool with a strong focus on children's growth, development, and well-being all while having fun in the process.

The teachers are wohighly trained, warm, & friendlyThe school has had to make adjustments for Covid, of course. My grandson was in a public developmental preschool for a speech delay. It was only 6 hours a week and I was shocked at how little parental involvement, communication, and education existed. I placed him in Creative Bridges the remaining two days a week. Long story short, I ended up placing him in Creative Bridges full time, which was a wonderful decision I learned my grandson was way behind with both his fine & gross motor skills, and had numerous other issues needing investigation. His speech and confidence absolutely blossomed at Creative Bridges. Long story short, he was just diagnosed with autism at age 4 & 1/2 years old, but is still thriving at Creative Bridges.

My Kids LOVE This School !!! Thet are finishing their 3rd…read moreyear at NWEC and they have not complained. They used to go to a Phoenix District #1 Public Elementary and I had to deal with constant calls from the school. My kids getting bullied and beaten up, teachers letting the kids do whatever they want. I send my kids to school so they can learn. NWEC does that. My kids are smart, friendly, polite, A/B students and I couldn't be prouder. I am only sad that my oldest has one more year to go in this school (he will be an 8th grader 2019-2020) I am going to have a very difficult time looking for another school to meet the qualities of NWEC... In someway they have become part of my family. LOVE the Teachers, Staff, & Principal (Mr. Armenta) and not to mention all the kids are amazing. I don't have to deal with bullying, bad teachers, or constant complaining calls from the office... Thank You New World

I have nothing but positive things to say about her and the staff at MCS. She took over the operation just as we hit Covid and the work they've put in to keep things running -- and then make capital improvements and prioritize grounds care on top of it -- I see the love they put into their place. As far as the schooling goes, I'm happy. Really enjoyed the small size, multi age classrooms, and their commitment to the Montessori Method. "I've got friends..." who tried Montessori schools elsewhere with poor results -- but none of their schools sounded like MCS at all. For my two cents, the environment MCS cultivates daily is safe, considerate, honest, and supportive. I'm on my only child so preschool research wasn't a major priority for me. But now, having seen my child grow through MCS and the instruction Ms Li provides-- both to students and staff -- I would recommend any parent consider this school. It's the real deal. I've been so impressed. And because I'm clearly a MCS fan, I'd like to add my own thoughts regarding the ownership transition. I didn't experience the old owner everyone loved. I did experience some parents choosing to leave the school, in part, because of the results of the change. I liked the school enough to stay here as long as i could. My thoughts today: (1) everyone seemed to like the decisions of the old owner; (2) he sold it to the owner; (3) today the new owner seems to have it under control and is putting her mark on it -- sounds like the old owner made another good decision. Since we started at MCS, I've seen a consistent child-first atmosphere from the staff that does not compromise on the child's experience. They've not kept around staff that did not fit. They have invested In the building and landscaping. And they even have a little monthly newsletter now. It's an awesome little school and you deal right with the operators. I love it. Plus Ms Li is really on it about the Montessori Method and she walks the talks. She's a real professional.

The teachers are amazing to my kids Ms.Oliver, Miss. Bristow, Ms. Roberts, Ms. Ortega, Mrs. Oertel, and Miss. Brown encourage my kids to do better be better and encourage them that they can accomplish anything if they put their mind to it and make good decision making. I see a huge difference from my kids since online learning due to Covid-19 with their learning and self-esteem. The school does some fun festive activities like wacky wheel day, water day, pajama day, and video game party day are some fun festive activities that the whole school participates with parents. Miss Ireland and Miss Eaststep know their students well and they encourage their students to make good decision. If you have any questions or concerns Miss Ireland and Miss Eaststep are always on it and make sure all your questions and concerns are answered they do an amazing job running the school. I do recommend AmariSchools to family and friends I have Four kids that attend AmeriSchools and now I have a nephew that attends the school now and we are going to keep attending AmariSchools until they graduate eighth grade!! I strongly recommend AmeriSchools!!!

The current principal, Ms. Cervantes, is responsive and creative and has brought in some incredible teachers who are willing to go above and beyond for their students. The positive energy radiates through everyone and this school is safe place where children thrive. A bonus for this school is that they support families with children that may have 504 plans or IEPs. They take these seriously and have additional support for ALL children. It has been a godsend to not fear sending my younger two boys to school and having their spirits broken by the educational system. I highly recommend this school for anyone looking for smaller class sizes, high quality education, and support.
