We have had our child in the infant program since she was about two months old. As first-time parents, we were nervous, but the Principal was very experienced and knowledgeable. She has had that school for almost 40 years and has stuck to tried and tested methods (and not fads) when it comes to daycare and Montessori. The staff was very responsive and gave each child a lot of attention. They do not crowd kids into rooms and simply put on tv. They do real activities and send reports home daily. The building is beautiful with lovely night sky murals on the ceiling in the front. They have a theater, performing arts venue, science lab, and many other additions. The playground is unique due to the big plot of land and they have a veggie garden for the kids. They really are big on accountability and growth.Our child has a solid moral compass, curiosity, confidence, and good character: all things that the school strives to inculcate. I saw children there that were the children of parents who went to Spellwell themselves years earlier. That is a testament to the impact a well-run school can have on an individual and broader society. Honors kids from high school come back and visit. The staff looks like a close-knit team and the principal has vision. Wonderful place

My daughter has attended Spellwell Montessori since she was 9 weeks old. She has transitioned seamlessly through the classrooms and various age groups. There was open communication daily about what she did or if she needed any supplies. The teachers always greet us with a smile and stories about my daughter from the day. I was worried when I had to leave her at a daycare and be a way. However, I never felt like I was missing out on anything. I highly recommend the program to all parents.

PHENOMENAL SCHOOL!! Both of my daughters have attended Spell Well for many years. The Head of School, Teachers, and front staff are all exceptional and make all students feel comfortable and loved. The infant program is fantastic and provides student-teacher ratios that can help parents feel comfortable knowing their child will be always monitored and cared for. Spell Well provides individualistic learning styles to accommodate all students. Spell Well does an extraordinary job at cultivating students’ talents and interests, while simultaneously instilling a love for learning, reading and creative thinking. Spell Well has provided my daughters with skillsets to be used for a lifetime.

I attended Spell Well in preschool many years ago and I've been so happy to share the same environment with my children now. Their growth from a tiny home to what it is today has been impressive. I would recommend this school to anyone looking as they have maintained a high level education and the same loving environment even through their growth to a much larger school.

The structure of Montessori school was new to us, after touring multiple facilities we chose Spellwell. We love that our kids are not only safe, but taught and cared for by the staff here. The skills they are learning at 4 years and 2 years old are already transferring into our home life.They love their school and also we do!

Both my Kids went to Spell Well. Best Decision we made for our Kids. Its very critical the young minds needs to be allowed to flower fully to attain their full potential. Spell well teachers sure made a huge difference to my kids making them creative, willing to learn by exploration, discipline and respecting themselves and others.

I am new to the school and I am very impressed with the program and the leadership thus far. This is a high quality program and I am grateful to have my daughter be apart of it.

Both our boys went to this school and we couldn't have asked for a better environment or more caring teachers and staff. Our boys were always happy to go there and the school helped greatly in their education and growth.

Fabulous. We moved from public school not knowing what to expect. It offers such a great learning experience while teaching students respect and love.

We have been at Spell Well for 5 years now with 3 of our children, a 4th starting soon. We have had children in every class level. Spell Well Montessori has provided an important educational base for each of my children. They know how to learn. They like to learn. They have an appreciation for all cultures and people. They know the importance of being kind to others. We love the Montessori component. We feel our children are very safe at Spell Well and can focus on their education and being a kid in a positive, respectful, and encouraging environment. My kids love going to school there. We highly recommend Spell Well Montessori!

My son is thriving at Spell Well. He's developed a thirst for knowledge. We're considering keeping him here through the younger elementary grades because of how much he loves it.

I have had three children attend Spellwell. I have now been at the school for 10 years. My eldest is now in middle school . My children have really blossomed at this school and have always felt very secure . The staff knows all the children . The lead teacher turnover is very low at the school which in itself speaks volumes. My two older children still feel very much at home at the school and are known by all the staff. The head of school has an open door policy when it comes to any concerns parents may have and tries her utmost to address them. In addition, the school is really preparing children with a well rounded education for a more "global world." Spanish is introduced in the preschool years and is very regular. The Spanish teacher is wonderful. In addition, the school has just hired a Mandarin teacher! The environment is very warm and nurturing.

The school will love you if you are of a certain complexion other wise you will be discriminated against and not treated with much dignity.

My son has gone to this school for 9 years. He has been very happy and it helped him in his early formative years. The concepts taught to them at an early age has given him a head start for the future. The staff is great, and Ms. Nilo is WONDERFUL!

This school has a great plan and framework but they are too packed too many students especially in the lower grades causing the teachers to not be able to focus clearly when there 25 to 30+ kids in one class with one teacher. This is very dangerous, they need to reduce the class sizes or open additional classrooms to provide a better learning environment. The leader is great but her front staff can be very rude except for one nice lady. If these things are cleared up this school will be an excellent place.

This is my daughters first year away from home. When researching and touring schools, I was drawn to Spell Well. I'm a very particular mom and I like things a certain way, but I felt very comfortable with the staff and teachers there. The director Ms. Nilo calmed any of my concerns and always has an open door to discuss, and has said we are welcome anytime.I was very nervous about her starting school, but her experience has been wonderful. Both of her teachers, Ms. Rachelle and Ms. Andrea are awesome and so patient. She is learning so much and the montessori curriculum is really fostering her independence. The school has a PEACE curriculum so they are taught to get along and help solve their own problems. I cannot say enough good things about this school and cannot wait for our younger child to attend when she becomes of age.

I am a teacher and I do admire the wonderful job Ms. Riaz does with her class. She is teaching my son to be caring, compassionate and respectful in a multicultural world!

My son has been enrolled in Spell Well Montessori over six years. He is actively engaged, constantly challenged, exhibits continuous growth, and is truly happy. I support the director and her decisions to run a well-oiled machine. Spell Well Montessori provides unmatched service by genuinely caring for their students and parents. Way to go Spell Well!
