I graduated a while ago in 2016, looking back it was/ still is a great school I made friends and…read morememories that are great and hard to forget but the environment was and still probably is not always welcoming,there are still cliques, bullying, popular kids etc. coming out 5 years ago Im glad I did it after i graduated but i always think of what would've happened if i was in high school, most likely I get kicked out and it doesn't sit right with me as I still have faith and a relationship in Christ. I got along with everyone mostly well sometimes I got picked on for being a high functioning autistic and I still sometimes wonder what they think now but for the most part DMC was a great high school experience for me and I miss my friends.

MCC is simply the best. We have taken our two children there for seven years as have had nothing…read morebut an incredible experience. MCC is like family to us! It's so wonderful having a place we completely trust and are thankful to send our kids to. I love the Montessori philosophy and inquiry based learning methods. They do such a great job supporting children's natural curiosity while also teaching independence, responsibility and important life skills. I've been so impressed with how's much my kids have learned and how's much fun they have! They love their teachers, they do so many fun activities and never seem to get bored. I'm also impressed with how often the activities in the room change, and all the cool arts projects they bring home! The owner and all the teachers are truly the best people; kind, nurturing, patient with a solid sense of humor. We're so lucky to have MCC in our lives!

Overall I like this daycare. I've taken my son here since he turned 2 and plan on continuing until…read morehe has to enter Kindergarten. While, they're not as strict as other Montessori daycares, I find that a good approach. Children are meant to be children and they discover with play. Applying strict rules to everything restricts kids imagination but that doesn't mean that they are not given structure. As far as I've seen, they keep the kids active during the summer, and whenever weather permits during the winter. I like that they don't have TV and their playground is great. They are right across from a park so they go there during the summer sometimes. The only thing Im not too happy about is when I've called to let them know about something, I feel like i'm always rushed by the person at the other end.
