The Cherry Blossom Montessori School

"This is our first year and I have three children in different classrooms at this school – Lower Elementary (6 yo), Primary (5 yo) and Stepping Stones (3 yo). My children come home every day happy, healthy and excited about school. Teachers are certified and continue with their training throughout the year. School is cleaned daily and well maintained. Classrooms are fully equipped and children are regularly working with various materials. The school maintains a good security system monitored by a locked door with camera and miscellaneous cameras throughout the school. I am welcome any time to watch my kids, peek through an observation window all while the staff help me move from room to room, especially during my children’s most needy times. Beforecare and aftercare is provided, perfect for my busy work schedule. Every parent I’ve met has told me their experience with the school has been excellent and their children have learned and grown so much. Most of all, the entire staff and teachers truly care about their work and their students. They work hard, they work with you and they guide our kids to develop to the best of their abilities. My 6 yo, arrived with no Montessori background and he’s adapted to his materials and studies like a child who started in Stepping Stones. My 5 yo, is picking up a confidence in school I’ve never seen before. His development and skills are the complete opposite of his brother but he continues to develop at his own level while challenged daily. My 3 yo, so strong willed, just starting out in the Monetessori method continues to develop the most important foundation in her education surrounded by interactive and engaging teachers. Aside from the outstanding teachers, the staff are dedicated, kind and most of all patient. They are an inspiring group, we are lucky to have found such a wonderful school."

"Our daughter joined CBM (Cherry Blossom Montessori) at 2.5 years old, and she is now almost 5 years old. We could not be happier with our selection of a preschool for her, and we did extensive research/visits to all the local schools. We will be enrolling her in KG at CBM as well. CBM is a wonderful learning environment, and fosters creativity, education & academia, co-mingled with practical life skills. They are very nurturing and loving, and treat your child like a member of their family. Every teacher/staff member at the school knows your child by name. We also love that CBM allows our daughter to be independent, and offers her an environment where she can focus on her own needs and wants, but they still guide and direct her learning. We are already planning to enroll our son as soon as he is old enough, and are confident that he too will thrive as our daughter did, at CBM."

"Our son joined the Cherry Blossom Montessori (CBM) School in January 2011, a month after we moved to Hillsborough. We currently have two children enrolled at CBM. Our son is in 2nd grade (Lower Elementary), our daughter is in Kindergarten (Primary) and our youngest daughter will start preschool in September 2016. Throughout these past five years at CBM, we continuously remain impressed with the knowledge, experience and communication of the teachers and administration. The academics our children are exposed to and learning on a daily basis and at this young age, is extremely impressive. CBM feels like an extension of our family. The highly educated, professional and caring teachers and administration is incomparable. For us, CBM is the right choice and the best investment we are making for our children's future.
