He brings home a stack of artwork and papers everyday and is so excited to show me. In the last 2 months we've already accumulated more artwork than we did in 3 years at the previous childcare center.

Honestly, I cannot say enough good things about this school!! The first day that my 4 year-old son…read moreattended the school, he came home happy, cheerful, and proud to be a student of "Montessori school." He felt safe, included, and confident as a new little learner in his classroom. His enthusiasm and interest to learn and explore new things grows everyday. I cannot thank enough his teachers for guiding and encouraging him to learn and explore new things in school. I found everyone working in this school, right from the administrators to the teachers, to be caring, dedicated and compassionate individuals who love working with children. They work tirelessly to support and guide them in order to help them gain meaningful knowledge at their own pace. In short, this school is a hidden gem tucked away in North Aurora road and all parents who want their children to experience authentic Montessori method of learning in a school, should definitely visit and explore this school. I only wish their organization had a prominent website that was solely dedicated to the school and shared their curriculum, vision and mission. Had there been a proper website of this school instead of the "montessori unlimited", we would have enrolled our son long ago when he was 3; we learned about this school from a friend and I'm so glad we visited them soon after. Thus, a prominent website and/or a strong presence in social media will, I strongly believe, help many more families to be aware of this wonderful school that provides authentic Montessori learning experience to children.

Add us to that list. There really was no comparison with other options in the area after meeting with Paul (owner) and Linda (previous director) and a few of the teachers. No fluffy pretense, just straightforward and positive attitudes across the board. Effective leadership + excellent teachers = outstanding program. Despite all this, we were nervous our first few weeks as we were leaving our nearly 2-year-old son with strangers for the first time. We called on the first day and Paul (owner) answered the phone and put us at ease. He offered to walk down and take a look for us, and said that our son was playing - laughing, even. He said to call whenever we were concerned. We did, and each time our boy was either having fun or napping. (Incredible!) Once, getting the feeling that maybe Paul was exaggerating a little to make us feel better, I came early to pick up our boy. It was no exaggeration - he was having a ball. It's lasted three years - he was excited to see his friends and teachers when I dropped him off just this morning. Bottom line - we strongly recommend The Goddard School in North Aurora and have nothing but praise for them.

I truly cannot say enough about this school. When we came to the school, our son struggled with…read morereading and writing for quite some time. Within two months after he started at FVMS, we could already see MAJOR improvement. The improvements continued and now, he tries to read while he is walking. I never thought I would ever tell him not to read, but I had to draw the line when he was trying to read and walk! Do you know what he told me when I stopped him...."but mom, I love to read". Ahhhhh...what a relief to a parent to have confirmation that they made the right choice in switching schools. There are many other wonderful things about the school too! Extra curricular activities including chess, karate, cooking and yoga are offered on campus. It is totally awesome that when we pick our kids up from school that they are done with everything and we can go home (instead of carting them all over town to off campus classes, running late to everything and sliding in to home with no time for a decent dinner or quality family time...not to mention everyone is tired, stressed and fighting...you know what I mean). Oh...did I mention that they have organic hot lunches and before and after school care? Woooo-hoooo!!!! When we transferred to this school we immediately felt a part of the community. Our whole family felt like we fit right in. We have so many wonderful things to say about this school. If you are here, on this page reading reviews, you may be in search of something new, something different...a change. If so, this is it!!! At FVMS, your child will build a strong knowledge base in a way that keeps their love of learning alive (or revives it if that is your case), encourages them to think for themselves, allows creativity, inspires them to reach their fullest potential and dares them to be true to themselves. I am SO grateful that we transferred to this school....it was literally life changing for our son. Take the time to take the tour...you will be amazed! We were...

This is not a traditional school, they allow children to make mistakes and encourage them to find the answers. They support the children in learning how to communicate with each other in addition to teaching beyond educational standards in arithmetic, writing language science and so on. My children left Montessori and felt that the public schools were not able to keep pace with what they learned through these programs. They have both expressed that their public school experience is socially disappointing because the students are often unkind and treat each other with disrespect. While my children were encouraged to help peers there public student peers are often concerned with shaming and putting peers who are different than themselves down. Fox Valley Montessori taught my children that learning is fun, that curiosity is a value. My children learned to be respectful, they learned how to manage their work and it is serving them quite well in high school as they manage their time for finals and AP classes. This is not a traditional school, it is so much more, this school teaches your child what community is. Their Montessori education has prepared them far better than I could have imagined and I cannot recommend this school enough.
