Reviews of Southern Stars Montessori Preschool
"If I could give 0 stars I would. If you can avoid this preschool, please do so at any cost. We started here in 2022 and for the most part, our children had a lovely school year. Everything went downhill in 2023 - all beginning with the school director being fired (or quit?) out of the blue and without any parents being notified. We started noticing other senior teachers disappearing. One day the founder shows up and is working as a teacher and convincing parents that all is well and they have teacher turnover but "a ton of qualified masters-level candidates applying". I hear from another parents that former teachers have long-since been disrespected by the founder and administration and that they had had enough. After a few weeks of many parents questioning, they held a 'parent conference' and it is the most unhinged meeting whereby they introduce a handful of new people and essentially tell us they fired everyone for a "breech of data confidentiality" - but cannot tell us anymore. In the following months, we see teacher after teacher disappear with no notice. We have to ask in multiple scenarios: "Who is this new person at the door? Who is my child's teacher? Is Miss ____ still with the school?" We never get a clear answer. The founder is possibly one of the most difficult people I've ever had to deal with. She gaslights and bullies if you're critical or not blindly supportive. She uses the word "Montessori" like it's going out of style to convince parents their children are getting the best education. She blatantly lies to your face and has her administration do the same. After months of red flags (including, but not limited to: one of my children screaming not to go to school - something I heard from other parents too; my friend's child being LEFT ALONE on the playground after school; my children being sent home in the wrong clothes or dirty pee-filled diapers; staff to child ratios being severely off; inconsistent and sometimes incorrect communication about our children on the app) and a negative interaction with the founder and her staff - whereby they quoted the contract at length via e-mail and suggested I could "unenroll my children that day and pick up their things by end of week", I finally made the EASY decision to pull my children. At final pickup - the teachers didn't even know it was their last day - they weren't even informed. I was able to have a candid conversation with them where we all expressed how unfortunate it was I (along with many other families) were pulling our kids and they in no unclear terms expressed that the founder is very difficult to work for. I suspect the teachers have been treated poorly this whole time too, and I hope they find better jobs. Good luck and good riddance to Southern Stars - I sincerely hope you're out of business soon or get your act together."
"Really nice preschool with a great staff. The stem activities the kids do are amazing and the facility is one of the nicest I’ve ever seen. We will absolutely be enrolling."
"Can I give more than 5 stars? Our son has been at Southern Stars Montessori since just after he turned 2 (he's currently 3.5). This has included a full school year plus two summer camps. We LOVE it and cannot say enough good things about this place and the Montessori style overall. Most importantly to us, from Day 1, our little guy has loved going to school. As he's become more vocal and articulate, it's very clear how much he adores his teachers, the larger team, and his classmates. From our perspective as parents, the communication has been amazing via a great app that provides daily updates and photos from the teaching staff, and timely/responsive emails from the Director. We've always felt our child was safe/secure, loved, and getting access to great early education. A few additional bonus notes: The hours are great for working parents, with options for early drop-off and aftercare; they have a great meal program, providing snacks and an opt-in for lunch; and a personal favorite - they were a huge help supporting our potty-training journey!"
"We love Southern Stars Montessori! Our oldest has gone there for almost two years and plan to send our youngest when he reaches their age requirement. We've watched our son grow through multiple classrooms and teachers who have always made him feel right at home. The Director is also always listening to parent feedback and continually improving the experience (anything from the sign in process to facility enhancements)."
"Recently opened but we love it already! Our 2 year old is loving the stimulation and exposure to the school's extensive resources. He's able to learn and interact in a diverse age group, adapting quickly to the new environment. Classrooms are outfitted with tons of different learning activities in addition to the necessary letter/number/word lessons. Arts and crafts, puzzles, animals, and those traditional toddler themes are also used while learning more independent play. Our son seems to be getting plenty of book/reading time which has always engaged him and thrills us as parents. We were always curious about the Montessori approach, but now we're certain it's a good fit for us. Shanice and Kristin have been wonderful to work with, and we highly recommend Southern Stars!"
