Our boys have truly flourished at this school. My older son went into Kindergarten with a strong foundation and did really well. Our younger son has gone through so much development. Truly wonderful community, teachers and administrators.

Great Director and Teachers. Love the curriculum and teaching methods! The school is extremely clean and safe and my daughter has been thriving there. The mothers and fathers day celebration activities were awesome, and we would love more opportunities to be more involved. We have been extremely happy!!!

Teachers so far have been really caring and following a great structure. My only wish would be to have more grade levels for the kids. Ie: a class between toddler and primary

We’ve had a great experience with our daughter’s class. Her teachers and the front office staff have all been very supportive and nurturing.

The teachers and staff at this school are the most loving and kind educators for our son. The start of pre-school can be such a difficult time but they held my son in their arms (literally) and our hands throughout the whole adjustment time. He is now so happy to attend school, has made some friends and we love seeing him happy. So fortunate to be able to drop off our 2 year old son at this school where his learning and social skills continue to improve every day!

Love that they have the opportunity to try new foods. We receive pictures throughout the week. They have an interactive music class. Love that they are able to get involved in other programs, like soccer shots and dancing in harmony, while being in school. The staff is incredible and always friendly.

There are not enough words to show the gratitude I have for this school. My older son started attending Montessori Academy on the Ranch in August 2019 and he is excelling in elementary school. I have to give a huge thanks to the teachers for tailoring his work period to him and meeting him where he was developmentally. My younger son also started here in April 2022 and still attends. He has grown so much. When he first started he could barely walk and talk at 18 months. Within a few months his vocabulary expanded along with his motor skills. His teachers truly focused on his specific development needs as well. Both my kids learned how to be confident, independent and complete basic tasks, such as clean up after themselves, get dressed, ask for things in a polite manner, etc. The school also does a wonderful job of potty training our kids! I didn’t have to do anything! Both my boys absolutely adore the teachers and the staff is wonderful and gets to know you on a personal level. We love the school so much we decided to stay here even though T-K was an option for both kids! Thank you to Tamara, Michelle, Tia, and the rest of the staff for the impact you made on my kids! We are so grateful!

We have had great experiences with both our kids at MOTR. They learn and thrive in their classrooms and we are happy with the ease of communication with staff. Our daughter’s teacher, Ms.Michelle is well loved by all. We are grateful to have this place in our community.

Primary Three Teachers (Michelle Riddle and Hannah) are the absolute best. I couldn’t be happier with how much my daughter, Kennedy, loves both of them. She tells me such wonderful stories about them when she gets home. She looks forward to showing them her toys and telling them about her afterschool activities etc. I also think that Tamara and Tia really care about their teachers and administration. They seem to have a knowledgable staff that is very happy to be there. Most importantly, they seem to provide the staff with support when it is needed. Montessori Academy at the Ranch is 12/10, and we are happy that it has been Kennedy’s preschool!!!

The teachers and staff are second to none. It’s what drew us in 4.5 years ago and what keeps us there to this day.
