James Monroe Elementary School

This is the best school my children have ever attended. The teachers spend a lot of one-on-one time with the students. The classroom is small and initmate. Unfortunately, my boys only attended the school for one year becaused we had to move, but they had already started with phonics/reading and basic arithmetic. WOW! Great parent involvement. They stay true to the Montessori teaching method. They teach theatre, dance, art class, Spanish and gymnastics. The school is big on manners, politeness, etiquette and respect. They do the pledge of allegiance and pray before snack an lunch! Please do your research on Montessori schools before considering bringing your children here. There is no homework given out. They don't give the kids a lot of time to play outside, but enough to stretch out for at least 15-20 mins. a day. They nap 1 1/2 hrs to classical music. Independent learning at your child's pace which encourages learning and confidence. Emphasis in learning. My kids always came home smelling like perfume. Glad they were being loved & hugged! Founders of Google, Wikipedia & Amazon all attended Montessori schools to name a few, you can't go wrong.

We have been fortunate to experience this school for the past 3 years. The way they handled online learning and the safe return to face to face learning the following year was nothing short of a miracle. The students didn't miss out on having a quality education and for those that preferred online learning, that option was available. I will be forever grateful for the faculty that helped our little ones get through this crazy time.

If you LOVE your child, you should NEVER send your child to this daycare. Don't be fulled by the owner's fake act of kindness. She only cares about $$$. My Child got INJURED from this place and NO ONE from the TOT STOP informed us. I am writing this review so that no child/parent will go through the hell we went through at this place.
