I am very happy with the education our child has received at St. Anne's. I would not hesitate to recommend the school to those on the fence about the quality of the school. A bonus has been the relationships we have gained with other parents, as the parents are encouraged to become involved. This creates a sense of community that is absent at public schools. The one negative is the aging building the school is currently in. While the building itself is old, the technologies used within the school include a modern computer lab with macs and ipads. Safety features include multiple exterior cameras.

I am new to MAL, but I have worked at Montessori schools across the country, including at The New School, and I can honestly say that MAL is hands-down the best of all of them. My fellow leaders are experienced and passionately devoted to Montessori education. From an administration viewpoint, everything runs smoothly, from scheduling to parent communication. All of the teachers are extremely caring and dedicated to providing the best quality Montessori education to each and every student. There's none of the in-fighting or politics I've experienced at other schools. The building is beautiful, and designed specifically for the school. The classrooms are well appointed, with access to the outdoors, and it's wonderful to have several playgrounds, plentiful garden space, indoor space for large-motor activities and performances, dedicated art space, and a large library. The building is full of natural light, with pleasant colors and beautiful floors. We have a strong, inclusive community of parents, led by our Parent Community Group. I absolutely look forward to coming to work each and every day, and your child will love coming to school here.
