Our family joined Beginnings Montessori 2 years ago with our 4 year old and 2.5 year old in the Primary class. The teachers here are like an extended family that love and encourage every student, and they are all accredited in the Montessori teaching method. I’m constantly amazed at what my kids know, how independent they are and the reasoned way they approach life. Beginnings also offers full-time, year round care which is a life saver for working parents.

As soon as my son is done with school (public) he can hardly wait to go to summer camp at Beginnings. The teachers are fantastic and he has made great friends.

All 3 of my children have gone to Beginnings Montessori and my 15-year-old son still refers to his year of elementary there as the best school year of his life! The fact that our community has this resource available at such an affordable cost is a testament to the heart and soul of the Beginnings community!

I have sent all three of my children to Beginnings Montessori School. I cannot say enough good things about this program and the foundation it creates for children and a lifetime love of learning. Love, love, love this school.
