Students excel academically. School is open to feedback and addresses any concerns quickly.

The staff is very caring and diligent in working with each student on their own level-this includes all subjects-even Islamic and Arabic.Overall, students are happy and feel accomplished because of this. The school is actively working to enhance services. There has been additional trainings for staff on restorative practices, phonics training, etc. There was a safety concern brought forth by parents after the situation in Palestine erupted. This was taken seriously by the school, which had an evaluation and has added additional cameras as one additional safety measures.This year, small group skills counseling sessions is also taking place for identified students. Feedback from families, staff, and students has been used in order to make improvements over the last few years.Staff really tries to work with students when there are issues, rather than suspending. The best interest of each child is taken into consideration and all efforts are made by staff to help improve any situation that may arise. There are lots of events and activities that the school has as well. The diversity of the school is a strength.

This school is very bad. The teachers are very rude, and are bullying the children and threatening them with cameras enforced by the principal, who is very rude and wastes money on genocide supporting companies and cameras instead of fixing the stuff that is bad in the school. Many unqualified teachers that don’t know how to teach are joining the school, which is causing many students to leave. I don’t recommend this school at all, take your kids somewhere else.

Only focused on tuition not effective in character building. All busy work. Definitely money centric business vs student centric.

Our experience has been excellent with a caring and qualified teaching and administrative staff. They care about all their students at all the levels, and have a progressive focus on modernization of education both in terms of quality and environment.

To be sure, Montessori is not appropriate for every child, nor is College Prep appropriate for every child. If your pre-Middle School child is inquisitive, loves to learn, and follows rules relatively well, they will thrive in the Montessori environment. I highly recommend you avoid Montessori if your child is entering 3rd grade or higher and this would be their first experience with this type of learning environment, unless you and they are extremely dissatisfied with the traditional environment and you're ready to try just about anything! This school only has Montessori to 5th grade. Their middle school is college prep, and it's a suffocating environment. Creativity and individuality is stifled on a daily basis and are sacrificed at the alter of a demanding though bland curriculum. This is a curriculum driven middle school, as opposed to a learning driven learning environment. My child was told on a daily basis that she couldn't ask questions because they had to get through the lesson or they would fall behind. It appeared as though the teachers were afraid of what might happen if they gave the students even an inch of freedom. The students often don't get gym or outdoor recess, so they rarely have an opportunity to breath away from the watchful eyes of the teachers (and, oh how they watch)! The teachers run an extremely tight ship, which works for high-achieving students who want to be told what to do and how to do it in order to get the 'A', but for more sensitive students who aren't interested in the grade per se, this is a stifling, dull, and generally uninteresting and bland learning environment.
