“Our oldest started at IMS in 2018 when she was 18 months. She started her journey with IMS in the pre-primary class, as first time parents we were very happy with the warm & welcoming environment for the little ones. Teaching her how to navigate in the classroom & building loving friendships. When the pandemic hit we turned to a virtual program with IMS & it really allowed us to dive deep into the curriculum..I must say we were impressed with all the engaging and fun activities/ work they offered to the kids — we learned the montessori way to incorporate at home. In 2021 we went back for in person and she was welcomed into the primary program with 3-6 year olds. She had a blast learning and growing with the teachers & classmates. We really enjoyed the montessori way during her younger years of 18 months-5 years old. Our daughter always came home telling us what she learned, coming home with all the projects and work that shows the diverse program she is learning about — keeping her well rounded. They kept her advanced academically testing in 90th percentile. IMS challenged her to be a leader in the classroom & brought those experiences home. We are grateful to have found IMS and how they have prepared her for kindergarten!
Also, IMS offers a fun summer program that will keep them learning and having fun with their friends. We highly recommend this school to all of our friends that are local to the area!!Thank you IMS for giving us a great experience with such a supportive community”

Our children both attended IMS from the time they were babies through kindergarten. IMS was a part of our family for those 10 years. We were so impressed with the teachers and how much our children learned at IMS. The focus on learning about diverse cultures and learning independence was wonderful. We also really enjoyed the events such as the Art Show and International Night! We are so sad our time at IMS is over, and our children still miss the school. IMS will always be a special part of our lives.

“Although my husband grew up in a Montessori environment, International Montessori Schools was my first experience with the Montessori teaching style and culture. It has been amazing to see our son develop independence and empathy in such a safe and nurturing environment. From his first week in the Toddler class, the staff have engaged intentionally with our family to meet our needs and encourage our son’s development. Now that he is in the Primary class, we’re experiencing growth through mentoring as older students are modeling behavior and learning alongside our son. It’s a joy to see him looking up to older students, but subsequently, encouraging younger students (by) living out the behavior that’s been modeled for him.”

During her Kindergarten years at International Montessori Schools, our daughter’s academic and leadership skills soared. She felt confident in her well-known, beloved environment to deepen her understanding of the world, her reading and writing skills and her abstract reasoning in math. As one of the oldest children in her class, she also got to experience modeling what she had learned to the younger ones, which helped her grow in self esteem. It was clearly a fundamental year that prepared her well for the Elementary years. As the Admissions Counselor at her current school said: “She was more than ready”

“Our first grader has nothing but fond memories of her years at International Montessori School. She often comments on how much she loved being able to work peacefully and to learn freely, surrounded by teachers who treated her with so much kindness and respect. Attuned teachers who really saw her and who challenged her while honoring her learning style and pace.
