I am the current parent of 4 students at OLM. We LOVE the school. The teaching staff is second to none. As a former educator, I couldn't be happier with our decision to attend OLM. The 'not-so flattering' review below is honestly the first negative thing I have heard from a student during our years
... Read more at OLM. We have experienced all aspects of PK/K, lower & upper school, and have nothing but positive things to say. I will;however, admit that although my overall opinion of the Early Learning Center is tops, I will say that if you are looking for a structured educational based pk program, there are others out there for the same tuition. Our decision with our fourth child was to take advantage of other opportunities & return him for K-8. Read less

I am an alumna of OLMS, and my youngest child of four children is now enrolled at the school. After spending 14 years at public schools with my older children, it is a tremendous relief to be involved at OLMS! One visit to the school and you will immediately sense an atmosphere of peace, serenity and

The academics are rigorous, with students ranking 1-3 years above grade level on standardized tests.

The students in my class were all accepted to our top choice high schools, and many of us were also offered numerous academic scholarships. With the exception of a limited few, the teachers care about the students...I still talk to my teachers. In addition, the small classes enable the students to be very close-knit.. I still treasure the memories made at this wonderful school. Read less

I'm not a parent, I'm an alumni- but I just have to warn you, other than a small amount of teachers, this school is not good. With the exception of Mrs. Feeney and Mrs. Cerjanec, the teachers are actually pretty mean. One of them actually read my very low french grade aloud so people could laugh at

It has a very clichy atmosphere, and if you do send your kids there, which I suggest you don't, make sure you ask them if there okay alot, because my parents never knew I was severely depressed there. I don't even know one student who enjoyed their time there. I am speaking from direct experience, avoid this school. The 'music program' is one day a week, a person comes to the school, and you go to the school early, and other than athletics, there are no extracurriculars. Read less
