Beechwood Elementary School

Not safe watch the parents there is 2 women who yell as others children and curse at them and the school dose nothing.

Let me tell you about Columbus Montessori Education Center—this place is something special. From the moment our daughter walked through those doors, I knew she was in a space that would nurture her mind, her heart, and her potential. It’s not just a school; it’s a community where every child is seen, valued, and inspired to shine.The teachers? Incredible. They’re patient, kind, and deeply committed to each child’s growth. They don’t just teach—they empower. They encourage curiosity, creativity, and confidence, meeting each child where they are and helping them soar. The environment? It’s warm, bright, and full of opportunities for discovery. Every corner of the school invites learning and exploration, and the outdoor spaces give kids room to move, play, and grow strong—not just in body, but in spirit.At CMEC, my daughter learned to think for herself, to embrace challenges, and to lead with compassion and determination. When the time came for my daughter to move on to middle school she transitioned beautifully to a traditional classroom. She was able to walk into a new school, classroom and lunchroom with confidence introducing herself to peers and teachers alike. CMEC is a place that shapes not just great students, but great people. If you want your child in a school that’s building the next generation of leaders, dreamers, and doers, this is it. My daughter is thriving, and that’s the kind of education every child deserves.

Stay away from this school, stay far away. Look at all other options, shoot, your local public school will be a better choice then St. Catherine's. This school is after your money, nothing else. I can't go into every bit of my experience with this school because it would never be enough to truly capture the awful work they did for my daughter. Again, RUN away from this place.

So blessed they had room for my girls to finish the end of the year. Everyone is very nice and caring. My kindergartener was having a bad experience at her old school. One week at Holy Spirit and she was like a different child. Waking up happy and smiling in the morning coming home happy everyday. She went from It's too hard I can't” "I'm stupid". To "I don't need help” "I can do it ”. The teachers are strict and do have high expectations but they are reasonable expectations and age appropriate.
