McDonald Montessori School

We had the pleasure of visiting McDonald Montessori over the weekend for their annual open house. We were so impressed by the community coming together around the school. So many kids and parents having a great time. We spoke with some of the students and their academic strengths were apparent. The students (and graduates) knew their stuff and especially knew how to articulate what they had learned. Really awesome conversations over snow cones! Great place!

This highly enriched yet simplified school has enabled me to ease back to work with true PEACE OF MIND! Knowing my daughter is in good hands and in an environment that encourages creative learning is such a relief as a first time mom. The entire staff is friendly and especially her main teacher, Mrs. Karen who has patiently helped her overcome her extreme separation anxiety...she is now a very confident little student that sometimes forgets to tell me bye! Words can't even express my deepest gratitude for having this school near by! Thank you for all you do! Have a great summer!

McDonald Montessori has been the perfect fit for my kids. The school delivers authentic Montessori principles in a highly respectful environment. The students are loved and elevated; my kids are offered countless hands-on learning experiences in a setting that is both orderly and beautiful. McDonald Montessori's teachers are outstanding - expert in cultivating independent, engaged, and enthusiastic learners. I know my kids will take the lessons learned through their Montessori education with them through life. Very grateful for this school and the people that make it go! Thank you!

We have been a McDonald Montessori family for 6 years, and cannot say enough nice things about the program. The teachers and staff are some of the most caring individuals I have met anywhere. After six years, they feel more like family than teachers. The small environment of the school allows a lot of personal interaction and both of my children have developed wonderful relationships with all of their teachers. There is wonderful focus on not only education, but also on manners and character.

While a caring environment is our biggest priority, the education at McDonald Montessori has been top notch. Both of our children were reading at the beginning of their third year. More importantly, they both developed a very deep love of learning and were excited about what they were learning. There were weekend days where they would cry because they couldn’t go to school! When our first child left McDonald Montessori, he moved to another private school where he was ahead of the rest of the class.

We truly feel that McDonald Montessori has done a phenomenal job at preparing our children. We are very grateful that we found such a caring and well-structured program!

Our son loves this school!!! He just finished his third year and will be entering first grade (his fourth year at the school) in the fall. His reading, interpretation, math, geography and social skills are way above his grade level. He loves learning and we feel, as parents, that it is because of the nature of McDonald Montessori. We put him in school at three years old because he was obstinate and difficult to teach at home. We feel, as his parents, that he would be classified as a behavior problem, overlooked, and undereducated if he was in a public school. The loving, nurturing, Montessori environment provided at McDonald Montessori has allowed him to feel comfortable with himself and he has developed into a well adjusted, socially aware, kind, caring, hard working, and intellectual child. We are so pleased at the small class sizes and the supervised independence that the school offers. I should also mention that McDonald Montessori is very reasonable priced. The quality of the teachers at the school surpassed our expectations, as well. We love this school!!!
