Matawan Montessori Academy

My son, who has been enrolled at Matawan Montessori for 6 months, has just been enrolled in a new daycare. After 6 months of dropping off and picking up our son with no communication about behavioral issues I was pulled aside by the director and told my son was not welcome back for the start of the new year. As you can imagine, I was confused and bewildered. We have been assuming everything is fine as we haven’t heard a single issue about our son communicated to us. The director told me that there have been incidents over the course of two months that have happened. I am not blind to our son’s active and stubborn personality but I was shocked and angered that there was NO communication to me or my husband over those months and the day we hear about it is the day we are told he isn’t welcome. That is concerning and frankly inappropriate. I have loved the education and kind parents here and felt our son was getting a high quality education but I would prefer to have him in a school with open communication and collaboration between child/school/parents. If you are looking for open communication then this may not be the school for you. It certainly wasn’t for us.

Our two sons have attended since they were 3 years old and they love it. The teachers and staff are all very friendly and loving. One thing we love best is that the boys are learning Spanish and Mandarin!

My son has been attending Matawan Montessori School since he was 2 and half years old. He is now in the primary program. We have had such a wonderful experience with the school and teachers. best school in this area.

This is an amazing school, two of my daughters studied here and i highly recommend this school. Very friendly staff and very clean premises.
