Montessori Academy of Ocala

"I have been working in Montessori for about 18 years. During that period I have seen 4 directors pass by. In the last 6 years we have been blessed to have Ms. Pauline, as the school director. The way that Ms. Pauline loves the children, the staff and the school is out of this world. Her dedication, loyalty and commitment to the school make her the human being that she is. It is a real pleasure to work with her. God continue to bless her. Without her the school won’t be the school that is. I love Montessori."

"My son attended this school at the age of 18 months till he was about 2.5 years old. He learned so much in such a short time. He was saying Spanish words, knowing his letters, numbers. I was so amazed. ( I was also a teacher there which made things easier). He is now going into kindergarten and he still talks about the teachers here at Montessori. The curriculum is wonderful and the staff, teachers are loving and amazing educators. This was the starting point for my son to grow and flourish . I couldn’t be more happier that he attended this school!!!"

"I would like to share my thoughts concerning our school. We have a beautiful school, bilingual educated staff full of love and passion for our children. We our friendly and open to support our parents needs. Our director is a professional, talented woman with a humble heart and always a beautiful smile on her face. I have been working at this school for fifteen years and don't regret a moment to give my heart and passion to my children and parents. We are a family serving your family."

"best wishes to the teachers and faculty! They are so nice to the children and give them their full attention. I appreciate all they do for my child. They treat me like family at this school, always doing their best to help. This is the best school I've ever seen and I'd like them to get credit for all that they do for the children here. Honestly will be sending my other children here when they are old enough, as well."

"We had a terrible experience with the administration. We took an appointment with them a week a head then they called to change it 2 hours before the appointment simply because the teacher wanted to leave early. After our tour in the school they called us to let us know that they had a space for my son, and we took an appointment to go pay them and after driving for 30 minutes they said that they do not have a spot for my son! At least we deserve a phone call to let us know that they are sorry instead of us driving there to find out that they did not respect their word and did not communicate well. The director they had was rude, she was loud in her office and left me waiting for 10 minutes, then she sent the front office girl to tell me that they do not have a space for my child. Later, the director came and was very cold and said : " I decided to move another child to take his spot" . Schools are partners with parents and families to teach good values, respect and great communication but this Montessori school which we thought is a good school, can not teach basic good values because they lack it them selves."
