Read what parents are saying about Anchorage Montessori SchoolVery longstanding success with children and families over the last 40 years. My time here (7+ years) has enriched my appreciation for Montessori philosophy and teaching.
Posted by a teacher on 9/30/2019My daughter has attended pre-k through second grade so far and is going into her third grade year. I taught in a montessori in Georgia years ago, and was pleasantly surprised by the differences in Anchorage Montessori. AMS is a true montessori in so many ways and it is a really beautiful atmosphere. There are families from all walks of lives in the classrooms, with different cultures and beliefs. Teachers are kind to the children and work hard to see compassion shown between students.
Posted by a parent on 8/8/2018Fantastic. We love this school! Our children have attended for three years and are now in the elementary program.
Posted by a parent on 6/9/2018We could not be happier!! This school is exceptional in every way.
Posted by a parent on 4/25/2018My children started at AMS when they were toddlers and are now ages 4.5 and 2.5. We like the school for many reasons: 1) My kids look forward to going to school every day. 2) AMS is so much more than just a daycare. The day is structured without being rigid, with activities including music, Spanish, life skills, math, and reading. 3) The children are taught socialization--how to treat and interact with others properly. 4) The classrooms are clean and very orderly, yet also feel like nurturing places that foster creativity and the urge to experiment and learn. 5) The teachers and staff are all very warm and highly dedicated to the school and the kids. Tuition is on the higher end, but for us it's worth it as the school is giving our kids a solid foundation for lifelong learning and healthy relationships.

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageNorthwood is a truly wonderful school. My son is in their special education Pre-K program, and they’re so supportive. When looking for a school, I didn’t want him to be expected to change to fit the environment. I wanted the environment to support his growth. I’ve found that here. They spend time figuring out what works best for each kiddo to help them meet their full potential. They even have a sensory room that was put together with the help of an occupational therapist for kids that need a break. My son’s teachers have always been nothing short of amazing. They communicate with me about his progress and if he needs help with something in particular, and while of course teaching is their priority they never put that over the well-being of their students. I wish I went here when I was a child, instead of being bullied by my 1st grade teacher lol. Northwood has a community and environment unlike anything I’ve ever seen at a school and it makes me so happy that my son goes here.Parent Review1y ago - Sand Lake Elementary School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIf you have a special needs child and want the peace of mind your child is safe, I do not recommend this school. If you have a child that is any way different from what the school believes all kids should be, I do not recommend this school. Horrible principle.Parent Review1y ago
