We couldn’t be more thrilled with our child’s experience at Clementine Montessori. From the moment we walked through the doors, we could tell it was a special place. The Montessori approach to learning is truly remarkable, and we’ve seen incredible growth in our child since joining.
What stands out the most is how the school fosters independence and a love for learning. The classroom is full of engaging, hands-on materials that encourage creativity and exploration. Our child is always excited to go to school because they have the freedom to choose their activities and work at their own pace. It’s so rewarding to see them take ownership of their learning!
The mixed-age classrooms are a fantastic feature. It’s amazing to watch the older children naturally take on leadership roles, helping the younger ones and reinforcing their own knowledge. The sense of community is incredible and mutual respect among the children is something we truly value.
The teachers are dedicated and knowledgeable. They really understand the Montessori philosophy and guide the children with patience and care. It’s clear they are deeply invested in each child’s personal growth, both academically and emotionally.
Most importantly, we’ve seen our child’s confidence soar. They’ve developed important life skills like problem-solving, communication, and social-emotional awareness. The Montessori method has created a nurturing environment where our child feels safe to explore, make mistakes, and learn from them.
Overall, we couldn’t be happier with our choice of Clementine Montessori, they definitely deserve to be recognized!! The Montessori experience has exceeded our expectations, and we feel so fortunate that our child is able to learn in such an inspiring and supportive environment. If you’re looking for a preschool that prioritizes individuality, hands-on learning, and social-emotional growth, we highly recommend this Montessori school!

The teachers at Clementine are so amazing. They are loving and have the best ideas to keep the kids engaged and learning. I feel so lucky to have found Clementine Montessori. The kindergarten program is very special with special units that rotate in the afternoon and then they use the city to learn from, taking field trips that match their units. The programs are fantastic.

Such a happy, joyful place. Our daughter is thriving in her 2nd year here, and we loved it for our son too (now 7, he went for preschool also). We feel so lucky to have found this place. The teachers are loving, knowledgeable, and kind.
