He adores his teacher and his friends and manages to complete a very large amount of work every day without a second thought. My daughter recently turned 3 and began a primary class with an equally wonderful teacher. The 4 year olds are reading and completing addition problems. The extracirricular activities are numerous and the school parties and holiday celebrations are grand. I feel great dropping my children off every morning. Read less

Arborland is an excellent school! Everyone gets individual attention. The education is very well-rounded and gave me a superior foundation for all my subjects. The main thing is that Arborland trains everyone extra well in public-speaking. With fewer students, everyone gets a chance to go onstage

I absolutely love Arblorland Montessori. I believe Arborland lays a great foundation for a child's growth by exposing him/her to various aspects of learning such as math, reading, science, art, geography, etc. They start children learning at an early age. My son started at age 2 1/2 and I am excited

They also offer a wide range of extracurricular activities such as swimming, tennis, piano, karate, dance, etc. My son learned to swim and has been taking tennis lessons with Mr. Guy for about 8 months. I also love the annual Halloween parade, International Day in the spring, and the annual Christmas/holiday recital which is a big deal. These are the most well prepared, fearless, confident children and I believe Arborland has really helped mold them into that type of person. If I could give Arborland 6 stars, I would! Read less
