Lincoln Prairie School

I must confess that, in my opinion, Acartah has become one of the finest Montessori schools in the Northwest suburbs. Prior to enrolling my child at Acartah, they attended Bright Horizons. I was always on the lookout for a school that offered a comprehensive curriculum along with a rich selection of extracurricular activities integrated into the program.A dear friend recommended Acartah to me, and I must say, it has truly exceeded my expectations. Their standards have been elevated to a whole new level. For instance, the inclusion of daily swimming sessions is remarkable. Personally, I find it challenging to imagine any parent consistently committing to taking their preschooler to swimming class every single day. Inevitably, there would be days when this proves to be difficult.Mrs Pam was the comforting teacher, helping kids thrive at early age and develop confidence and interpersonal skillsFurthermore, the exposure to gymnastics, art, and music is invaluable. My child not only learned to play the piano but also developed a creative and innovative mindset, thinking 'outside the box.' Currently in elementary school, not only qualifies as gifted but also excels in all academic pursuits. Mrs Laine is top top notch of KG teachers, she challenges the kids to be ready for elementary, I will be always in debt to her achievements with my child. the work they did with Kids in KG made them so ready for elementary school. they are top of all materials now. I am just impressed. My child goes to private charter high ranked school. all kids in their class are struggling my kid is not, Thank GOD, She is FANTASTIC TEACHER. and I am not talking about knowledge, it is about developing that mindset in kids, that being challenged is a GREAT thing not scary. that's what they did to my CHILD, nothing scares them anymore, the challenge excites them actually. A sKill we need all kids for the next era to have.I eagerly anticipate the day when my second child is potty trained and can join the Acartah community. To me, Acartah is more than just a childcare provider; they are like family.
