Apple Montessori Schools & Camps - Cliffside Park

"My 4.5 year old has been at Apple Montessori Cliffside park for 3 years. She comes home every day chatty and happy, with new skills, new lessons and new experiences. Her teachers, Ms. Alcantara and Ms.Suarez continually go above and beyond to make the children feel safe, loved and intellectually inspired. I truly don’t know where my child would stand educationally or emotionally without these two ladies. They often call often to give me a heads up on how my daughter is progressing. They let me know when she has a particularly good day, so her confidence continues to grow. We also have one on one meetings regularly to talk about her school work and social skills. She is writing, starting to read on her own and doing math every day in preparation for kindergarten. I feel they are ahead of the curve educationally because each child progresses at their own speed to ensure they have full understanding. Every person on staff at Apple Montessori is attentive, hardworking friendly and caring. It feels good to know my daughter in such good hands, safe and happy while I'm at work."

"My son was enrolled in the summer camp program. He had a wonderful experience and enjoyed learning amongst his peers. The curriculum is robust and he enjoyed the field trips and water play. His teachers Ms. A and Ms. Suarez we’re kind, patient and caring. Shoutout to Ms. Melo as well for always being a welcoming and friendly face especially during early morning drop offs. He learned so much and we are so grateful! Highly recommend!!"

"Sent my child starting at 18 months to the toddler program. He started off average and at times behind on some developmental milestones in gross, fine motor skills, problem solving, speech, and socialization. By the end of the year he really excelled in all these aspects. His speech is starting to take off. He also improved in concentration, patience, understanding the world, concepts of order, placement, categories. He cleans up after himself, very adorable. The teachers and administrators are amazing. They know toddlers. They also seem to really really care. I felt comfortable that my child was in the care of such warm compassionate teachers. That said, he did get sick very often. I think last winter was especially bad for all day cares and schools across the nation. They do take measures but given the population I guess it was inevitable."

"Last day of camp for the students today and I have to say that everyone has been wonderful! My daughter has been having nothing but great experiences at this school and with the teachers. Ms. A and Ms, Suarez are the best, and we will miss Ms. Melo now that summer camp is over!"

"We truly love Apple Montessori Cliffside Park! Both of our children have been going to Apple Montessori for the last 4 years and we simply love the care, attention, compassion and investment that everybody provides. The director, Ms Rogers is an outstanding, organized and involved leader that sets a great example/culture. Both Ms Alacantra, who is the head teacher to our older child and Ms. Rodriguez, who is the head teacher to our younger one have so much passion and care to guide our children to bring their best. The teachers and the whole staff not only invest in our children to excel academically (and our children often surprise us with their progress) but most importantly they instill confidence and love. We wholeheartedly recommend Apple Montessori Cliffside Park to any family."
