Community Montessori School

"More than two years in, our daughter loves CMS and so do we. After visiting more than a dozen schools in the area when we moved here, the CMS environment felt the most right for us (even if it is a bit more or a drive from home). But it is well worth it with a fantastic teaching and support staff, a deep commitment to Montessori education, and lots of space to roam and play = happy children. We're extremely grateful for all the hard work put in to re-open and keep everyone safe during the pandemic, which has allowed the children to continue to thrive and be together during a very challenging time."

"We love CMS! We searched high and low for a school for our toddler. As with all parents, we wanted to find a caring teacher, a nurturing environment and a safe school. We were also looking for an environment that would allow our son to have an organic education and time in nature. We were SO lucky to find CMS. Upon touring the beautiful campus, you can see the school staff takes pride in the entire environment and all staff are so caring to the children. Our 2 year old loves this school! He comes home happy and spouting off all of his classmates names and talking about the chickens."

"My son has been attending CMS for 3 years now. It is a fantastic school and he has really thrived there! We plan to continue his education into elementary for many years at CMS. The grounds are beautiful and peaceful and I feel like it contributes to the learning environment. There is a big emphasis on nature which I love, and he still learns all the fundamentals to keep up with regular public schooling. I would definitely recommend this school."

"Our child started at CMS when he was 16 months old. He is now 4 years old, and his development has been amazing, both mentally and socially. He is developing an inquisitive mind, and he is learning to seek knowledge independently. Socially, he plays well with different age groups, which is a direct reflection of the socialization he receives in the classroom. The campus is second to none. It's spacious, beautiful, and peaceful. Most telling of all, HE loves to go to school. We are beyond pleased with his experience there and intend to keep him enrolled through the elementary program."

"If you're considering a Montessori School for your family, THIS is the place to be! My son has been there for 2 years now after spending his kindergarten and 1st grade year in public school. We decided to make the switch after his enthusiasm for life and learning disappeared. I finally convinced my husband to give us 1 year -- "just 1 year and we'll see if we notice a change. If we notice an improvement...if he comes back to life, we'll stay. If he remains unmotivated, then we'll move on." Those were life changing words for us! Within a few short months, and thanks to his AMAZING friends and teachers, we watched our son's renewed vigor for life gradually unfold. We're here to stay and so very excited there's an upper elementary program on this side of town. You will LOVE it here! The teachers, families and staff are committed and involved. If you're curious about Montessori schools, just do like we did and take a tour :)"
