Hurlbutt Elementary School

I feel so incredibly grateful to be part of this Montessori school community. My kids, now 5 and 7 years old, have been here since they were toddlers, and it has been amazing to watch them grow and truly thrive. The best part is that they are excited about going to school in the morning!The teachers here are truly amazing. From the beginning, they created a nurturing, respectful environment that fostered independence, confidence, and a genuine love of learning. The Montessori approach has allowed my kids to progress at their own pace while still being gently guided and challenged. It’s been beautiful to see them develop strong problem-solving skills, focus, responsibility, and kindness toward others.The classrooms are calm, organized, and thoughtfully prepared, encouraging curiosity and hands-on exploration. Academically they are flourishing, but just as importantly, they are growing socially and emotionally in such a positive way.The sense of community here is truly special. The teachers and staff genuinely care about every child and build meaningful relationships with families. I feel supported, heard, and confident that my kids are in the best possible environment. I could not imagine a better foundation for my kids, I highly recommend Seven Acres Montessori School.

I have heard other parents say it is "Small but Mighty" and I agree. I love the importance on not cutting back on the academics - no cuts to art, music, grammar/spelling (as I've heard some other schools have done), language, cursive... It's still about academics and educating the whole child. The addition of the technology adding to the personalized learning model is well balanced (no defaults to the tech teaching the kids - it's used to compliment not take the place of teachers.) So many benefits of this school.
