Vista Montessori School

I hardly ever write reviews but I feel compelled to now because Vista deserves to have a much higher Google rating! My 18-mo has been here for about half a year, and we're just thrilled with it. This is our third Montessori school--my older daughter attended two--and the philosophy, which I'm very familiar with as the child of a Montessori teacher, is practiced carefully and compassionately. The teachers and staff have always been cooperative and responsive with me, and warm and caring toward my toddler. Every time I pick him up, he's happily engaged in some activity, either independently or with a teacher.nnI've looked at almost all the Montessori schools in the area, and while I wouldn't hesitate to send my kids to any of them, the intimate and thoughtful program at Vista has definitely been the right choice for our family.

We love Vista Montessori! My son was a student here for four years. When he graduated kindergarten he was reading at a second grade level. The teachers know just how to push their students and make them want to work hard. The transition from Montessori to public school and first grade was a concern of mine, but it has all been seamless. My daughter is a current student (she's 2 1/2) and we are equally as pleased. She loves all of her teachers and is excited every day to tell me what lessons she worked on. The staff at VMS has been very supportive and helpful with her potty training as well.nnCan't say enough good things about the teachers (and Mr Dave)!!

VMS has been a daily part of our family life for the bulk of 10 years. All 3 of my children have started their school career at 1 1/2 years old with VMS and I've never had to worry about their care or comfort. They keep things small, and in doing so have the time to give to our children the one on one attention to help them thrive. They're always open to hear any concerns or suggestions and ready to work together with the families who are a part of their school. It's a good sign when your preschooler constantly requests to be the first one dropped off in the morning and the last one picked up in the evening ud83dude02.

Love the staff, lessons, and memories we have from Vista. My commute was over 30 minutes to take my son here for 4 years and wouldn't trade it!

My son was at Vista for 5 years (including Kindergarten) and I wouldn't trade that experience for ANYTHING! He learned so much more than any other place he could have been. They taught him how to be an independent, tiny person. They helped with everything from the normal math and reading to things like tying shoes, buttoning jackets, potty training, conflict resolution and SO much more. I knew every day when I dropped him off he was in for a well rounded day of learning that went well beyond what I could expect, even after years of being there! We've considered having another child and they would be enrolled at Vista with zero hesitation. I drove past multiple childcare and even other Montessori schools DAILY to stay at Vista and would do it again in a heartbeat!
