Montessori Episcopal School

"Montessori Episcopal is, without a doubt, the best school we could have chosen for my daughter. The atmosphere is unlike any other school/daycare I had previously visited—it’s calm, personalized, and inviting. The students learn independence and responsibility, and the Montessori model has been amazing from an educational standpoint. Most importantly, daughter loves learning and feels safe, which are the two criteria that matter most to me. Her teachers are amazingly supportive and encouraging, and they growth I’ve seen in my child since she started there is incredible. Can’t recommend MES enough!!"

"MES has been so much more than childcare. It has become our family. The teachers care about my kids (even the one who left years ago) with their whole hearts. I have personally witnessed patience beyond measure and the actions that show that every child is valued. Every child is an individual and every child is respected, loved, and encouraged. Lesson plans are derived for each individual child. The school is also constantly updating classroom works, new playground equipment and fostering a love of learning and of community. It is with a heavy heart that my youngest will graduate this year and I will not get to see this family daily anymore. MES has given my children a superior and balanced foundation and they are now ready to take on the world."

"Three of my children attended school at MES and were well prepared for elementary school, loved and cared for in a compassionate manner, and were allowed to be little. There is structure but always with kindness. There is a warmth and depth to the teachers that is rare. The fact that they teach Christian catechism principles and attended a weekly chapel gave the children a good foundation also of our faith. It was a diverse atmosphere where all children were cared for equally by a multi-ethnic staff. I love that part! I love so many parts about MES. I couldn’t have imagined a better environment for my children to be in while away from me."

"My daughter attended Montessori Episcopal School from age 2 until 5. As a single mom I was concerned I could not afford to give my daughter the education to prepare her for school but was referred to MES by another former parent. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. The knowledgeable and loving staff more than prepared her for Kindergarten. She is above grade level in all subjects, she behaves better than others, is a model student, shows empathy and compassion, and most importantly her love for God is a shining example to all. I contribute these attributes to MES. I know that my daughter's strong foundation at MES has prepared her for life. She still uses phrases and skills she learned there."

"Both of our kids have attended MES and we have loved our experience here. The teachers are knowledgable, experienced, and so caring. They are true to the Montessori method of teaching and my kids have come out with such a tremendous balance of practical life skills and a strong academic foundation. As a School Counselor, I know how important and formative these years are for our kids. We have been at other schools in the area and I was not finding schools where the curriculum and programs were both developmentally appropriate, but also challenged students to learn how to think and learn how to learn. We have found all of those in MES and I could not be more grateful for our time as an MES family."
