Taproot Montessori School

When my kids attend this school the ratings was 8/10 because it has amazing principal ( Kathie Scoopie) , after her another principal came in and the school started to be awful each year worse than the year before until the ratings now is 3/10. The principal stands with some bullies from pta and their kids with some bullies awful teachers.

This school has greatly improved over the last few years. As the community is growing, and more people are moving in this area the school is growing as well. They have implemented an afterschool program and a summer camp and summer school program.It's a diverse school and very close knit families. It is definitely going to be getting better over the years. Though there are a lot of things that they can improve on, the School is getting there.

GSDA has changed. They are no longer taking high school students, which I wish was something they had warned us that THAT decision was a possibility of happening so we could’ve just looked for different school. Did not get the support my students needed. Almost felt like they didn’t even want to try or bother so they let my whole family go in the middle of the school year instead of just offering other choices for my students to learn and get the emotional support that was needed that schools usually provide. And we were left on our own to look for another hybrid school. The online program we signed up for was only there to get a grade in a specific timeframe or you fail. There was no learning and since it was already paid for…too bad, right? The consultants are helpful but when the higher up was decided to be involved per policy, the care of the added stress to my students slowly ceased to exist. Why did I still say yes to recommend this school? The teachers and most of the staff are very friendly and helpful but it just didn’t leave a great impression on us on how they handled our family BUT your family’s experience may be great for grade K-8. Just good to know what happens if things aren’t working out as planned.
