Mechina Of South Florida

I was so worried, when my kid went to the school. But there was nothing to worry about, teachers are great in kindergarten, first grade 2nd grade. Management and principal are really helpful. School tries to help canned and family as much as possible. For example, this year they were giving away free bikes for each kid. They have special online programs for parents, so parents with different language will be able to help their kid with education process. Main thing for me that kid loves going to the school. It’s not too little or not too much homework. Also school has after school programs and summer school camps. And Security is good. Nobody, other than students allowed to be in school. You can enter school just through security, showing your ID, and only with schedule appointment. That makes me feel safe for my kid. My special thank you for second grade teacher, Mr. Riera. He is amazing and kids love him awesome my kid has really good understanding of the program and showing good results.

My child has attended North Beach for 6 years and I can say that this is an EXCELLENT school! The teachers are committed to their students development and students are regularly recognized for their accomplishments building their sense of confidence and joy of learning. Projects and assignments are developed to help stretch children's thinking. Many comments on this site about this being a public school run like a private school. I would agree and am very thankful for that! The workload on students is high with homework almost every night, but the kids get used to the workload and it prepares them for everything that comes next. If you're a parent that doesn't believe homework is important, then this is NOT the school for you. Also, many comments disparaging the "rich yoga moms". To be clear, these moms donate their time and resources to make NBE a terrific elementary school for all. Specifically, they play an active role in helping to organize classroom events, they help fund incremental teachers for those that need more support and they volunteer to support the school whenever needed. Overall, an outstanding school in a terrific community filled with caring families.

A wonderful experience. Teachers and principal are knowledgeable, kind and supportive. Authentic Montessori not watered down. A hidden gem in Miami Beach.

I moved my two daughters to MASJ from "the best" Montessori in Boston. I can say, without a doubt, that the education level at MASJ easily surpasses Boston. What is more, is that the entire team is comprised of loving and caring educators. This 100% includes the administration. The location is absolutely beautiful. The children have play and (homemade) lunch time with a water view, and last month, a Manatee swam up to them. My older daughter is now at Miami Country Day and is a straight A student, thanks to the fundamentals she received at MASJ. I cannot recommend this school highly enough.

I would not reccomend sending your children here at all. I sent my son to the high school this year, and out of all the Jewish schools, we have tried this id definitively at the bottom of the list. Both the Judaics and the traditional course are not sufficient with the teaching they provide. Along with the poor teaching, the workload given to students is extreme especially this year with an ongoing pandemic.

Absolutely not worth the price. The academics are at a lower level than public schools, which I remarked after I retracted my children from this school. The counselors are not concerned by the students' problems, the teachers keep switching, or even get expelled. The teachers are not paid enough, as they claim, and each year at LEAST 5 of them leave. Parents are literally spammed with e-mails that have nothing to do with their children's life. The high school is in a bad condition, and students destroy the wall when they kick it, as the latter are made of paper. There is NO discipline. Judaic teachings have nothing special, and overall, this schools lacks a well structured academic system. The students' future are compromised, be careful with your decision!
