Greater Chgo Alt-Transitional

We love this school! The staff is great! It's so nice that it's only preschool and kindergarten. I was able to go on field trips, volunteer in the classroom, read books during library and so much more. Plus they are expanding the school. It's going to be truely amazing!

We love this school overall. The were able to have clear communication to parents and my children are thriving.

this is a great school with excellent teachers, administration, and SEL support!

My daughter attended St. Paul for 3 and 4 year old pre-K. I can't say it enough...the teachers were wonderful! My daughter learned many Christian songs and knew many Bible stories. She also learned her appropriate "ABCs and 123s". The teachers and staff are very caring and most have taught at the school for many years...I appreciated the stability. If we would not have moved out of state I would have definitely continued to send my daughter to St. Paul!!

Skokie Montessori School is a small school with a big heart and caring stuff.I had two kids in grades between 3-5. The pandemic helped me to decide to move them there. Their Chicago public school experience left us disappointed.Mrs. Joji is an emailing teacher And I will always recommend her and well as Mrs. Megan.My kids thrived there, I would pick them up happy and laughing yet tired from learning. I saw them becoming their own individuals with their interests and passions.Mrs Joji put a lot of hard work to bringing my kids where they are today.They received the most education in that 2 year pieriod. Their cursive wring looks amazing, it is a rarity that kids write so nicely in todays world. Their research skills really went up. Their use of vocabulary really bloomed and spelling. My daughter became to love math again and wow she showed me how strong she became. My sons wringing sentences and stories really improved when he was only able to write a short sentence with bunch of mistakes. Both of their abilities really improved. I can not say how beautifully they started drawing, coloring. Mrs. Joji used those really expensive markets, crayons . Great investment now I see from what work they did with them. My daughter always loved nature, animals. Under Mrs. Joji direction she learned how to research and really expand her interest to the point that I didn’t question anything that she says about facts , names, and everything about plants and animals.My son as well in different interests.Mrs Joji has I believe 35 years of experience of teaching. She does phenomenal job. She teaches morals that many of us I believe forgot in this world. Hi picked up many skils in parenting from her as well. She was always on top of everything and kept working with me very closely. Because the school is small in size my kids really learned how to care and thrive and excel in community. Also they have organic lunches!!! Warm! So you know your children are well fed and ready to put in that hard work with their brains.They have gym that Mrs. Joji teaches them games and sports they wouldn’t play otherwise. She even plays with them , my son loved it and always laughed a lot.It is a gem teacher And gem school with everything that is best for your child. We are grateful for those two wonderful years.
