    My daughter has been going to The Boyd School Herndon for nearly 19 months. I can't say enough…read moregood things about this school. The director of this school is truly passionate about making this school the very best it can be. Any issues or feedback I have had in the past were always welcomed and resolved almost immediately. The director is engaged in your child's progress and wants to help each child meet their full potential. The teachers are wonderful, providing feedback on your child's progress regularly. I had some issues with my child at home and not only did they give me suggestions, they were willing to come and observe at my house. This is not your typical school. I am grateful that my daughter has such a wonderful environment to grow and learn.

    I agree with the first reviewer about the school being closed too often, especially in the winter…read more Fairfax County Public Schools close frequently although on days that there are no reasons to be closed (the snow was already over and the roads were perfectly fine), and the Boyd School follows the Public Schools decisions. Public Schools are free so parents have to put up with it, but we pay a hefty tuition for a private school, we expect better. In addition to that, they close on many other occasions such as two weeks on Christmas, one week for Spring Break, teacher's service day, and more. My daughter is currently going there and I'm considering other options because of this. In terms of staff and curriculum, it's just okay. The teacher - student ratio there is quite high for the 3-6 year-old class (10 to 1). Considering how high the tuition is, the ratio should be lower. Overall the school is quite inflexible. If you want to cancel the contract, you have to notify them 3 MONTHS IN ADVANCE, which is an awefully long time to wait if you are not happy with the arrangements there.

    5 Stars speak for itself how happy I am as a parent with this school…read more I have 2 boys who attended this school. One will be graduating this year and older son graduated about 5 years back. I cannot thank enough to all the teachers who work so hard to create confidence and desire to learn in a fun way. The school values the importance of many aspect of learning and growing at young age. The teachers understand the needs, personality and style of each student. They will work according to that child needs and wants. Biggest thing that attracted us as a parent to this school in 2003 was low turn over of teachers. And it still stays true after almost of decade knowing the teachers and Mrs. Khan at the school. The facility is not a fancy place that will try to sell parents but a happy place to bring out the best of your child.

    Oh Montessori School of Herndon - how do I love thee? Let me count the ways…read more My husband came across MSH after my youngest daughter was knocked off another pre-k's wait list. And I'm glad that happened. What started off as a lukewarm feeling with MSH soon developed into a deep appreciation and respect for the teachers and staff. Tirelessly and patiently they encourage kids to challenge themselves, foster a love of learning, and treat each other with mutual kindness and respect. MSH isn't the fanciest Montessori nor the newest. As parents we're driven to believe there is some sort of correlation between a child's education and a fancy school facade. The MSH location is in a house-like structure with a lot of space to learn and play. It's cleanliness and tidiness is exemplary. The head Director's views on education and teaching philosophy clinched the deal for me. The Campus Director/teacher is the reason I will continue sending my daughter to MSH. She is firm but fair, has a great sense of humor, and caters her approach to children based on their unique personalities. My daughter's morning teacher is a gem. We couldn't have asked for a better pre-k teacher. Evidence of the fact is during parent teacher conferences when she goes over a detailed explanation of your child's progress instead of glossing over the semester and dismissing your concerns. I'd also like to recognize all the other wonderful staff at MSH who teach, protect, and care for our kids. Finally and most importantly - my daughter loves to go to MSH each and every morning (well almost every morning -- toddlers don't like Monday's either.)
