If you cannot get an entire class to pay attention then it is for sure the teacher not the children. Shame on you Mr. Rerucha and the principal you had during that time.

I can tell you that the school is named for witty writer William Sydney Porter, better known by his pen name of O. Henry (yes, that's with a period after the O). This review concerns the school's purpose as a free community resource for fitness, and in that arena, O. Henry gets a solid 3.75 stars. The AISD campus is located on Exposition Blvd. just a few blocks north of Lake Austin Blvd. in the hoity-toity Old Austin neighborhood of Tarrytown (bordered by Mopac to the east, the Colorado River to the west, and 35th St. to the north). Within walking distance is a Randall's grocery store, the Lion's Club Golf Course, the West Austin Youth Association (WAYA) sport complex, and the Howson Branch of the Austin Public Library. The Austin Runners Club http://austinrunners.org/group-runs/ and Al's Ship of Fools http://alsshipoffools.com/weekly-runs/ running groups meet here most Tuesday and Thursday evenings for free workouts on the O. Henry track or longer tempo runs in the hilly surrounding neighborhoods. The cushy-surfaced track is well maintained and the parking lot facing Exposition serves as a nice rest, stretch, & hydration area. The track is about 62 meters shorter than the traditional 400 (it's about a fifth of a mile), but you can use your Garmin or other GPS device to track your true distance. Some common distances and the number of laps required: 1600M = 4.875 laps 1200M = 3.5 laps 1000M = 3 laps 800M = 2.33 laps 600M = 1.875 laps 400M = 1.25 laps Never run a track before? Here are some tips: http://www.runnersworld.com/run-faster/track-running-dos-and-donts Parking is very limited, so I generally park on the street behind the school. Check signs for time limits & restrictions so that you don't get towed! There are tennis courts on the back side of the campus off Norwalk Lane and they are always in use by local adults when I've been on site after school hours. Unfortunately, the buildings are not usually unlocked in the evenings, so restrooms are generally not available. Sometimes I get lucky and there's a volleyball game or something going on and I get to access those precious facilities. Otherwise, I run over to the library or Randall's (or in dire need, one of the many porto-potties in the yards of homes under renovation) for relief. Check the school calendar http://ohenrypta.org/o-henry-calendar/ for special events that may close public access to outdoor amenities.

This is in part due to the practiced philosophy running deep within the school of girl empowerment and the drive to encourage them to be thoughtful leaders. I can already see the benefits in my daughter through her language, actions and overall confidence. Picking her up each day with a huge smile on her face says it all. Even as a new student she has developed pride and loves telling people she goes to "The Girls School"!

Activities are well thought-out and there is ample time built into each day for arts & crafts, reading books, playground time, and other activities (and oh yes, the all-important nap!). The staff-to-child ratio is higher than what we have seen at other daycares and the current head of school, Courtnee, has gone above and beyond in getting to know each child and their parents. One benefit to a Montessori model is having mixed age classrooms. Especially with the toddler room (18 months - 3 yrs), it provides the opportunity for younger kids to see behavior and action modeled by older kids, particularly with potty training. Our son can see children of the same age or slightly older go through that step and I think it has taken out much of the anxiety. He has picked up good habits such as helping to clean up and put things back, sharing, and being kind to others, and I am confident he is safe, well cared for, and growing while at Guidepost.

Our son has been attending Guidepost Montessori Westlake since he was 18 months old, and now at almost 4 years old we couldn't be happier with our experience. Our son has a big personality and can be very energetic, and the guides have always met him with incredible patience, kindness, and understanding. We've seen amazing growth in his social skills and language development, and he has become much more confident communicating with both children and adults. A very special thank you to Ms. Angela and Ms. Jacqueline. They are truly wonderful guides who care deeply about the children. Their calm, nurturing approach has made such a positive difference for our son. They were also incredibly supportive during potty training, approaching it with patience and encouragement, which made the process so much easier for our family. The school environment is beautiful, clean, and thoughtfully prepared, and the administration is always organized, responsive, and supportive. We also love the enrichment programs offered at the school like Kinder Dance, piano lessons, Spanish, and sports, which give the children wonderful opportunities to explore different interests. Most importantly, our son is happy and excited to go to school every day, which says everything. We feel very grateful to be part of the Guidepost Montessori Westlake community. Parent perspective: "As a parent, there is nothing more reassuring than knowing your child is safe, respected, and truly cared for every day. Guidepost Montessori Westlake has been an incredible place for our son to grow." If you're a parent looking for a thoughtful, patient, and well-run Montessori toddler or preschool program in Westlake or Austin, this school is truly a special place for children to learn, grow, and thrive

Wow. I have to repsond to Austin Mom C. lashing out at comments I made concerning my child's…read moreexperience at this preschool. This person is the President of the Board of Directors at Butterfly Christian Preschool and clearly thinks I am not entitled to have an opinion on the re-enrollment policy nor to share it with others. It's important to note that not a single other preschool in Westlake has such a disruptive re-enrollment policy. That goes for Westlake Methodist, Park Hills Baptist, Westlake Presbyterian, St. John Neumann and though not Westlake, Good Shepherd Episcopal. If you want your child to adapt to a preschool schedule and develop friendships with their cohort for years only to have it all yanked away then this is the preschool for you. Clearly the focus is not on the child with respect to re-enrollment, right Austin Mom C.? I can assure you my child will no longer be a student at this school once their MWF experience comes to a screeching halt in May. I might add how unprofessional it is for the Board President to question the decision to let my child finish out the school year. I've never heard of a Board President (or Board member for that matter) encouraging a family to withdrawal from a preschool. Interesting. Board President Austin Mom C., would you prefer that I turn my child's world upside right now rather than wait until fall?
