I wish I had gone to MKL.....What a fantastic environment! My son is now in 4th grade; he has gone there since he was in kindergarten. Over the summer he actually was upset that he was not in school. He has also told me many times how much he loves it here. MKL is so much more than just a school,

When you hear that the schools in your district are rated excellent....excellent to what? Arizona has the worst schools in the nation and that is one of the reasons we chose to send our son to a private school. Montessori teaching is so far above any other way of learning. All the children from infants through the 8th grade are amazing. Read less

I have been very happy with the quality of education here. My son has been at this school since he was an infant and is now 4. I am impressed with the montessori method teaching the skills of independent learning. Much better than learning by rote. I have seen myself how a class of 3-5 year olds

The kids seem to treat each other well and the environment is close-knit. If a have a 'complaint', it's that there isn't alot of opportunities for parents to come see their children during the day. Other preschools invite patents in periodically for special events during the school day (picnics, field trips, etc...) but that is rare here. Read less
This is an excellent school. My son started at this Montessori when he was 2 1/2 and I could not have been happier. There are two great playgorunds, a little farm and a garden. The students of all ages participate in taking care of the animals and growing vegetables in the garden. The classroom was

The School has great program good teachers. The only issue I have is though it is like a private school, the teacher student ratio is very high.

I cannot say enough good things about MKL. When we were looking at schools for our son's elementary experience, we kept coming back to MKL even though it was a 45 minute drive from our home. Since we are both educators, we were very particular in what we wanted in a school. After much consideration,

While our son did well in his primary (3-6 yr old) school, he has made temendous gain in both his academics and social growth. Even more importantly, our son loves his school. The staff at the school is one of the most considerate, qualified group we have been lucky enough to work with. I recommend this school wholeheartedly. Read less
