    Our daughter has attended THMS for over two years, starting in the infant program and currently in…read moreprimary. We are very happy with our experience. We thoroughly researched and toured several schools before enrolling her at THMS in April 2023. Mr. Amir, the former owner, was a great leader. Ms. Shireen, the current head of school, is equally wonderful. Despite facing challenges like every organization, the school has experienced positive transformations. Ms. Shireen, Ms. Uzma, and the incredible teachers have prepared our children for kindergarten. There's been an increase in open communication, and more visibility into the curriculum. The school offers fun activities during school hours and some after, and they always include parents and families whenever possible. Our daughter has cherished every teacher, including her afternoon teachers during the extended day program. We haven't experienced any harsh treatment, thankfully. While it's understandable that we might pick her up sweaty from the playground due to Georgia's hot weather, I don't expect teachers to keep all the kids' shirts tucked in or wipe their faces constantly. If that's the case, I'd provide face wipes and leave a note for the afternoon teachers. We've also never picked her up wet because they always help change her if she has an accident, even if she spills water on her shirt! We provide change of clothes and they bag up the wet clothes for us. I deeply respect Ms. Shireen's challenging job. She remains positive and I always see her at school with a smile on her face. Montessori philosophy doesn't sugarcoat developmental truths, and Ms. Shireen and the teachers must tell parents where their kids truly are. They spend upwards of 40 hours per week with them, unlike many of us. I appreciate their hard work and am excited to see what our daughter learns in the next two years.

    I would not recommend Tomorrow's Hope Montessori School in Suwanee. My experience there as a parent…read morehas been extremely disappointing and concerning. The way the staff treats the children is far from nurturing or aligned with the Montessori philosophy. During my daughter's time there, we noticed multiple red flags. She would often come home with her clothes soaked or improperly dressed after using the bathroom -- shirts not tucked in, pants half pulled up -- showing clear signs of carelessness. Her face was frequently red when we picked her up. At first, we assumed it was from face paint or playing, but after reviewing camera footage, we realized it was actually from how harshly the teachers were wiping her face. This is completely unacceptable. The food handling practices are also alarming. I personally witnessed a teacher carry five chicken nuggets from the kitchen to the classroom in her hands, even though she was wearing gloves -- no plate, no tray. When serving the food, it was literally tossed onto the children's plates with no care or kindness. Most upsetting of all is the teachers' overall tone and treatment of the kids. The environment is cold and impatient. I witnessed one incident where a child was crying loudly during mealtime, and the teacher yelled at him, grabbed him, and forced him to sit on the floor simply because he was playing with his chair. That is not how any child should be treated, especially not in a school that claims to follow Montessori values. Considering how expensive this school is, the lack of care and compassion is unacceptable. We were willing to sacrifice our hard-earned money for what we believed would be a safe, nurturing, Montessori-style environment. Sadly, what we experienced was the complete opposite. When I brought all of this to the attention of the school director, Shireen Ali, and we reviewed the camera footage, she showed zero empathy or concern, even though everything I described was clearly visible on the footage. Her only solution was to transfer my daughter to a different classroom -- nothing more. That's not acceptable. These teachers do not seem properly trained, and honestly, it doesn't appear that anyone on staff is actively monitoring those cameras unless a parent specifically asks. We ultimately withdrew our daughter because we no longer felt safe leaving her in that environment. I'm sharing this so other parents can make an informed decision -- what looks good on the surface at this school can be very different from what actually happens behind the classroom doors.

The small details they put into the tour to allowing our daughter to sit in the class to see how she would interact with the kids and her teacher made us feel extremely comfortable. We can't say enough about her teacher Ms. Jasmine, Ms. Vivianne and Ms. Chris! They have done so much in the three months that our daughter has been going to school. One of the big attractions we saw was the curriculum they had even in the young toddlers room. Since this was our daughters first school, we wanted to make sure she had the right development and we found it here at Primrose. Another big perk was the healthy nutritional options that's already included and the way they communicate in their daily report how much they have eaten/drank throughout the day also gives us a clue as to what she likes and doesn't like. Compared to some of the other schools we saw in the area, they are a little higher, but I feel like it's definitely worth the investment and you won't be disappointed with their professionalism and the way they truly treat you as part of their family! Hats off to management and owners (who you often see in the school throughout the week) for your continued efforts and training process. And a huge THANK YOU to her teachers for all they have done so far and we can't wait to see what else she learns over the next couple of years!!!

    I'm sharing this not to be mean, but to help other parents who are trying to make the best choice…read morefor their child. My son went to Kids R Kids for a little over two years -- from the time he was a baby until he was 3 1/2. At first, everything seemed great. His teachers adored him, he loved going, and he had a little group of friends he grew up with as he moved from room to room. But things changed when he moved into his last classroom. Around this time, he was going through a lot -- a new teacher, a much larger class, starting potty training, and having to watch most of his close friends move on to another room right outside his own. It was a lot for a little boy to handle all at once. Instead of being given understanding and support, his struggles were treated like major behavior problems. We started getting constant phone calls about his "bad" behavior -- things like hitting or throwing chairs -- but when I spoke to his teacher, her version sounded much more like typical toddler behavior. Still, the administration's tone made me feel like I was failing as a mom and that my son was somehow broken. The final straw came when, after one especially hard day, they slid a brochure across the counter for an early intervention program for "special needs." I left in tears, feeling completely defeated. Out of desperation, I had a child psychologist observe him -- and she told us there was nothing wrong with our son. She even said it was wrong for the school to suggest such a program without us initiating it. It broke my heart to realize that instead of helping him through a tough transition, the administration had given up on him. We eventually withdrew him, and I'm so glad we did -- he's thriving now. I truly believe many of his teachers cared and did their best, but the administration completely failed us. They lacked the training, empathy, and communication needed to support my child when he needed it most. Our son deserved better. Every child does.

When I pick them up, they come to the car smiling and happy. On the first day of school, my 5-year-old son said, "It's awesome, I love this school!" He continues to tell me how much fun he has in TK and how nice the kids are. He has always been skeptical about God, but that's definitely chagning. He is getting a strong Biblical education. They pray multiple times a day, go to chapel, have Bible lessons, etc. The other day, we saw a beautiful sunrise. He said, "Jesus made that for us." And at dinner the other night, he said he has Jesus in his heart! The teachers and staff have been amazing. It seems like most of the staff has worked at this school for many years. They have smiles on their faces, dress nicely, hair done, makeup on... You can tell they genuinely want to be there! Sugar Hill Weekday Preschool is fully staffed like a real school with a director; assistant director-operations; assistant director-admissions; registrar; school nurse; multiple assistants; music & movement teacher; STEAM teacher; and Spanish teacher. ...Not to mention, all the wonderful, loving classroom teachers and assistant teachers. We get a letter from the nurse anytime there's a confirmed illness, or even if our child bumps his head or gets a cut and requires a band-aid. The level of organization has been very impressive. They have signs and tags for everything with each child's name and number (backpack tags, lunchbox tags, car tags, name tags for the beginning of school, etc.). The facility itself is spotless. Custodians are constantly coming in classrooms when children are away to empty trashcans and wipe things down. This particular private pre-school also receives services with Gwinnett County Bright from the Start (special ed services). Some private pre-schools do not qualify to have special ed staff from the county in the classrooms. This is definitely worth considering if your child might have any developmental delays, speech delays, etc. Everyone we've talked to who has had students go from SHWP to Buford Kindergarten have said their children have been extremely well prepared for kindergarten. We can't recommend this school enough!
