Shadow Mountain High School

We pulled our daughter from Great Hearts after she attended the school for almost 3 years as a result of a terrible experience we had with her teacher, other staff and students. I found Desert Cove after researching high and low for good schools in our area. What a night and day experience! We love Desert Cove! My daughter came here in the middle of her 2nd grade year and was placed with an amazing, gifted and kind teacher named Mr. Walker. He is a gem and absolutely amazing. He deserves recognition for his outstanding work as a teacher. The staff at Desert Cove are caring and very kind. My 4 yr old son will be starting Kindergarten here next year.

What can I say about this school? Not enough. It is beyond fantastic! Teachers are certified and will do anything to make your child succeed. The communicate well with parents. The teachers love teaching. The homework is the perfect amount. You or your child won’t be disappointed

Small classes! Great community! No parent cliques. Everyone is extremely inclusive and it feels like an old school elementary experience. The students are not in a high pressure environment and still perform well academically due to the positive atmosphere. It’s a child-centric school, and you can feel the warmth the moment you walk on campus.

We transitioned our daughter to Community Montessori School from another Montessori program, and it has been the best decision for our family. While many schools use the 'Montessori' label as a marketing term, CMS remains deeply committed to the authentic practice. The difference in our daughter is remarkable: she used to come home irritable and overstimulated, but since joining CMS, she is noticeably calmer and more regulated. The teachers cultivate a truly intentional environment that supports both her academic growth and emotional well-being.
