Testimonials - Meadow's Montessori - grow... change... learn

The following testimonials are actual words from 2011 enrolled parents at Meadows Montessori.

Said about one of our teachers: "Thank you so much for all of your hard work and effort with our son. We really appreciate how you helped to continue his love for learning. You always had his best interest at heart. Under your care, his curiosity, maturity and independent nature has grown. Parent contact was also helpful. As a first time parent, it was helpful to hear your perspective as a teacher and parent."

"A note to thank you for all you do for us. We are very proud of our son and also grateful that he is in an environment where he is learning life lessons, no just reading and writing at Meadows. We are very thankful for you all of the teachers; we know you will have all the success in the world because of the love and dedication you put into teaching all the kids."

"After feeling anxiety about changing schools and enrolling our daughter into Meadows Montessori, we were immediately relieved as we watched her being welcomed into a warm and caring environment. From the start, we were impressed with the discipline, patience and caring atmosphere with which each and every child is given and taught. Meadows Montessori is by far an educationally superior school with highly experienced and dedicated teachers and exceeds that of other childhood programs in the area. Meadows Montessori is a place where each child learns respect, responsibilities, independence and logic. Moreover, it is a place where they instill confidence; a place where each child is nurtured both socially and academically, and all in a loving environment to develop these strengths. Meadows Montessori is a great school that sets a solid foundation that will prepare our daughter for the future years in grade school and beyond."

"We are so fortunate to have a school like this in our community that I could go on for pages, but here are just a few of the things we love about Meadows Montessori: the level of respect shown to the students, the vocabulary that everyone uses, and the elegant, clean, and kid-sized environment. I can see that you expect each child to learn differently, act differently, and have their own interests. Clearly you are guiding our daughter to explore and expand, and there is a strong sense that she is just perfect the way she is. I do wnat her to love education and learning, but I want her to love herself as well, and I'm so glad to see that you support her individuality. She has started giving me lessons and instructions when we are at home, and she says, "I believe in you, Mommy." I know she can only use these phrases because someone has been regularly saying them to her; building her self-esteem through positive messages. You have obviously put much thought into the design of your facility and it promotes calm, organized learning with just the right amount of stimulation. Our daughter is much better at putting away toys at home, cleaning up after herself, and I know that it is a result of good habits she is learning at school (because I sure couldn't get her to do that before!). You know that we came to you after leaving a different preschool here in the area, and while I so regret that we didn't find you first, perhaps we were meant to have that brief experience just so we could appreciate the vast and powerful differences between Meadows Montessori and the more typical learning centers that are available. No amount of convenience or cost-savings could ever persuade us to place our daughter anywhere else. As long as you have classes for her age group, we look forward to the partnership that will help fulfill her potential to become a happy, productive young lady."
