"All areas are clean. They do have some plastic bags for dog pooping. Nice job cleaning! But while walking our dogs the street light at Roosevelt and Monroe are not lit-ten up so we couldn’t see where we were walking."

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe sent my child to this school to be in a better moral environment. School is inadequate in every way, the only activity for children is basketball. It's as if the school was opened for the children of a few wealthy donors. My child can't show his talents, nobody cares. There are 3 coaches but they don't teach anything. No discipline. Not enough homework. My child feels left out by other children. I'm very disappointed.Parent Review3y ago16 Reviews - Great Foundations Montessori - Northwood
