Forbes Hill Montessori School 23 Bishop Road, Quincy, MA 02170

"Oonagh gave my son a great foundation and learning pattern. He spent 3 years in her school. She provides a true Montessori learning environment."

"Our daughter is currently in her second year at Oonagh's preschool, and I've witnessed tremendous growth over the past year. Her English communication skills have flourished, progressing from virtually non-existent to the point where she can even translate for my parents. Additionally, she has started reading books to me, demonstrating remarkable progress. Moreover, her overall maturity has noticeably increased. She now feels comfortable in an environments without the need for her parents, which is a significant achievement after just half a year of being in school. I wholeheartedly recommend this school, and we are planning to enroll our second child when he turns 3 years old."

"Our daughter Cameron spent 2 years at Forbes Hill and I wish she could have remained with Ms. Connolly through high school! Cameron absolutely blossomed over her two years at Forbes Hill. Ms. Connolly fosters independence and creativity in her students and sparked a curiosity and love of learning in Cameron. She made incredible progress and even started K2 as a "fluent reader." Not only do children make great strides academically, but Ms. Connolly is genuinely caring and compassionate, someone you can truly trust to care for your child. I enthusiastically recommend Ms. Connolly and Forbes Hill to any parent."

"I have two kids who attended the school. I wholeheartedly want to recommend the school and its teacher and director - Oonagh Connolly, to any parents who want a nurturing and educational environment for their children. The exceptional care and genuine dedication of Oonagh have made a significant impact on my children’s early years and their enthusiasm for learning. Initially, I was impressed with the school curriculum which was a perfect blend of academic learning, social development, and also fun. However, what made me extremely happy was Oonagh’s passion for teaching and her warmth and patience with the kids. She creates very safe and family like environment but at the same time she is extremely committed to foster a stimulating learning atmosphere. The classroom was filled with educational materials and the kids had a variety of activities every day, including music and arts. The parent-teacher conferences were like nothing I experience in their schools now. Oonagh also gave me regular updates on my children’s progress, along with pictures and stories that kept me involved and informed. I can write much more but I feel like it won’t be enough to express my gratitude and nostalgia for my kids preschool years. I could only wish that they stayed there longer (until college, if possible :))."
