Sterling is on the right track. It has gone through some growing pains over the last couple of years, but those issues appear to be improving. We love Sterling for our kids...as an example, my first grader participated in a project where the class ran their own fundraiser, voted on how to spend their

These kids are learning how to be individuals in the world -- how to make things happen and how to respect the people around them. They are treated with respect and the teachers are the most caring I have ever met. It is not a perfect school, but that, maybe, is part of the charm... and the life lesson. Sterling encourages unfettered learning...not cookie cutter results. Read less

I have been at this school since Kindergarten, and I absolutely love it! The teachers are wonderful, and I love the academic level. I have to say though...It is worth being there all those years because the Middle School class is soo cool, and it is very advanced...and prepares very well for high school

It allows the students to have freedom, but with that comes responsibility which helps for organizational purposes. Sterling Montessori is a great place to go, and I would definitely reccomend it, even for parents with special needs children. There are teachers for special needs children, that get to know them personally, and help them every step of the way in whatever they need. I absolutely love this school, even though I think I have already said that. Read less

In regards to the previous comment my child is in her second year at Sterling and to my knowledge the class sizes have not increased, infact my daughters class is smaller this year than last. As far as special needs students I have not seen this increase either. This is a great school.

Since I reviewed this school in Nov 2007, things have changed. The 2007-2008 director left after only 1 year. The classes this year are much more crowded, and teachers have to deal with more children with special needs. I think it is putting a big strain on the teacher and the school. But they have

My children are in K and 2nd Grade at Sterling Montessori . We couldn't be happier with this school. They get all the attention that they need from their teachers. The staff is great, the enrichment program is very good. They learn Spanish , they have lots of afterschool programs (arts and crafts, cooking,

Sterling is a wonderful school where your child will simply blossom. The teachers are excellent, openly communicate with the parents, and truly show an interest in your child. We switched to Sterling after our children attended several different Wake public schools. The learning environment at Sterling
... Read more is the best we ve witnessed compared to Wake public schools. The students are all well behaved, focused and enthusiastic about learning. Each Sterling elementary classroom has two teachers with a very low student to teacher ratio. The school promotes and encourages many field trips, several in-class demonstrations and special presentations, parent involvement, and general openness. The education goes well beyond the textbook to actively engage the student with the material in the form of projects or demonstrations. Extra curricular activities include chorus, band, music, GEO-Bee, Science night, Spanish night and more. It s a fantastic school and we have no regrets in switching. Read less

We were on the losing end of the heartbreaking incompetence displayed by the administration of this school in this year's lottery process. We were accepted after putting in our application early, waiting on pins and needles for the day of the lottery to find out that we had been accepted. This was

The new lottery may have served to justify those who were left out, by no fault of their own, but broke our hearts. I only hope that in the future, the administration can catch up to the wonderful work their teachers are doing. Read less

I have been at Sterling for over 7 years and have had just the time of my life. I love staying with my friends and teacher for three years in the same class. It is sad to move to the next class, but I have found that it just gets better as I move up. We learn a lot about the world around us and many

Instead of teaching us facts and giving us work sheets they give us projects and we get to choose. They also prepare us for the world behind the school. We have Spanish, art, PE and music but no other electives. I don t mind because my teacher mixes in really interesting projects with our core subjects. I love this school. Read less
