"Very nice staff and my kid is happy, but education is lacking in my opinion. Not Montessori in my opinion and we come from a Montessori family with multiple family members being Montessori teachers and they even noted the lack of traditional Montessori lessons. It worked as a place to keep my kid safe and I thoroughly enjoyed the meal prep and cleaning that kids were responsible for, but I'm looking for a little more Montessori education and writing from a school."
"I am so grateful my child has been able to attend Longwood! It has been an amazing experience. We started out at a different daycare and moved here. I love the staff and know they have his best interests at heart."
"Ms. Lindsey and Ms. Ashley are our primary teachers. If all teachers are as good as they are then this school's success will be great. The Director and Assistant Director have been nothing but friendly and accomodating. We consider ourselves lucky to be enrolled here."
"I can tell everyone that works here cares about the children and their growth. I feel invited and welcomed when coming in each morning. I love the days when I pick her up and someone is still there to share with me a little story about how my daughter did in school that day or something silly she did."
"All has been well so far. I wish snacks were more nutritious. The children are often eating processed crackers and snacks vs. nutrient dense foods. I wish there would be more variety and exposure to new foods as well, it seems the menu is the same each week and snacks are rarely accurate."
"We are very happy with the school. All the staff are very professional and loving, the school is very clean which is a major plus."
"Every single staff member at Longwood Montessori has been kind, profressional, and caring towards my family and my daughter. The facility is always very clean and tidy, and is such a warming environment to be in. Staff members took my safety concern questions very seriously before attending, and I appreciate that. I have no concerns that my daughter is receiving the upmost care and love by everyone around her. She has grown and thrived since moving to her new school. It is very hard to find staff members/teachers that have been at a location for 20+ years, and that really says something about the school. 10/10 would recommend Longwood Montessori to anyone around!"
"Overall, my experience with this school has been positive. Teachers and staff consistently exceed expectations, any concerns I bring are always quickly addressed, and my children enjoy the time they spend at school with their teachers. I also can tell the teachers truly enjoy what they do and are in partnership with you as a parent in fostering your child's growth and development. I can't say enough great things about this school and the teachers/staff. We love Longwood Montessori."
"This school has terrific communication with parents, nurturing/ teachers, and they interact with the children in amazing ways! The children learn and grow in a positive environment with their friends and teachers each day. My son tells me all about the things he learns, and tells me he loves his school. You can see how experienced they are with hands on learning and notice how dedicated their teachers are when checking in on the watch me grow app each day. If you're looking for a school where you feel like your child is being loved and taken care of all day while learning in differentiated ways, look no further."
"Vi en muchas ocasiones cómo maltrataban a una niña con capacidades especiales. Le gritaban constantemente y le
Obligaban a jugar por horas con un mismo juguete.. todo lo contrario a lo que se supone deben implementar como escuela Montessori "
"I would love to see teachers wearing name tags, or maybe even having pictures of teachers with their names on the boards outside of the classroom. Would help parents that want to make sure that they are respectfully and appropriately interacting and addressing teachers by their names!"
"Overall we love the staff and the experience. We would like to see nutritional changes that align with more nutrient dense Whole Foods being served."
"It’s been a wonderful experience watching my child grow and learn in a nurturing environment."
"Beau loves school, I am just concerned we need kindergarten preparedness stuff. I have no idea what is being taught daily."
"We love everything about this school. The teachers feel like family, and truly foster independent thinking."
