We absolutely love Marin Montessori School (MMS). Both of our children have attended, one starting in 1st grade and currently is in 4th. The other started in 4th and now is in 8th grade at their Junior High. MMS has been an incredible experience for our family. Even though we commute from San Francisco, it has been more than worth it (MMS has a shuttle bus, which makes the commute very convenient and easy). We were looking for an authentic Montessori program, and MMS is truly the best of the best. As an aside, the campus is stunning, and I strongly encourage you to visit if you are considering it.As parents, what we wanted most for our children was both a joy in learning and a strong academic foundation. MMS has provided exactly that. The children are given meaningful freedom in their learning, while also being held accountable for completing work and encouraged to stretch themselves into new challenges.Another piece I deeply appreciate is how the teachers have supported both of our children in navigating conflicts with classmates, which is such a normal part of growing up. I always felt confident that the teachers approached these moments of friction thoughtfully, supporting all parties and helping the children learn and grow from the experience.Both of our children love to learn, and we fully credit Montessori, and especially MMS for that. In my opinion, checking out MMS is an absolute must.
