Ohana Academy

"My son started to attend the school when he was three right during Covid. He had selective mutism and had difficulty talking to anyone. Over time, the teachers were amazing with him and after a year he came out of his "shell" and began to communicate with not only the teachers but peers as well. The teachers, Ms. Simone and Mr. Lamonte are exceptional with the students. Kind, firm, understanding and guiding. They take the time with each of the students, the Montessori way, and make sure they progress at their own pace. The class sizes are normal ratio with each teacher having an assistant to support them. I would recommend this school to anyone that is looking for Montessori or just a care group of individuals that support the students."

"This was a great school at one time, as recently as a few years ago. Once they sold and changed names, it all went downhill. Inexperienced teachers and aides, large class sizes, and lack of discipline has really brought the quality down"

"The school that didn’t notice a kid in their care had made his way outside and was found sitting in the street should have NEGATIVE 5 stars"

"We adore Miss Simone and Ohana academy. I'm always amazed at her creativity and ingenuity in her lessons, and I admire the way she meets each child at their social and academic level. I appreciate how communicative leadership is with parents about upcoming events, special days etc. The staff clearly care for the kids and enjoy their jobs. I feel confident when I drop my little off in the morning and she always has a smile when we pick her up. We will be so sad when it's time to move on!"
