Dana Montessori School

I cannot say enough good things about Prodigy Montessori. My son absolutely loves it, and adores the teachers. He literally runs into school each morning and comes home always having progressed at something new. As one of the younger students at the school, I was initially concerned he would feel intimidated, but the older students have been so welcoming to him. Ms. Priya genuinely cares about the students and is warm and encouraging, providing updates and sending through pictures or videos to give us a glimpse of how he is doing. Our son seems to be really thriving in the type of educational and fun environment that Prodigy Montessori has developed, and we have been incredibly happy there.

Prodigy Montessori is a great school with experienced teachers. The environment is great for kids to learn and grow. Ms. Priya took care of my daughter during her first days at the montessori just like a Mom! I am happy to see that my daughter likes various activities at school. She enjoys arts, crafts, and playing with the other children. The festival celebrations are a great way to make wonderful memories. I highly recommend Prodigy Montessori.

Prodigy Montessori has been nothing less than amazing for my 5 year old son!!! I found this school because although my son had attended St.Anne's, I needed to find a summer program with more days and hours since I am a full-time working mom. Prodigy Montessori is so cute, clean, and most importantly the director, Miss Priya cares SO much about all the students! She makes sure all the kids are happy and learning/playing as they should at their age. In fact, she has even helped my son start to learn numbers since his previous school hasn't taught him anything about numbers. My son knows the whole alphabet and can spell words that not even some friends a year older can do- I am impressed! My son is so happy here and I am so glad we found this school and Miss Priya! I highly recommend Prodigy Montessori of Dana Point!!!

Our almost two year old daughter goes to Prodigy Montessori (formerly Dana Montessori) and she loves it!! She is excited to walk into the classroom each day, despite being one of the youngest. Her language is improving each day - she knows more words than other kids her age. She has lots of friends at school and is generally very happy there. The teachers are all very sweet and she runs into their arms. The school does arts and crafts, singing songs, learning, playing outside, etc. We are very happy with Prodigy Montessori and appreciate all of the hard work that’s put into the school by the owner, Miss Priya, and the other teachers.

My older son started TK at R.H. Dana this year. He had previously attended a preschool that was wonderful when he first started but showed signs of a steady decline. My two year old was attending the same school and we decided to transition him to Prodigy Montessori - for a better experience for him, and for a more convenient double drop off for me. Prodigy came highly recommended from our neighbor, whose son attends the school. In fact, she mentioned not only did they enjoy the school, but he was thriving. We have now been at Prodigy for two months and are so impressed with our son‘s development. Ms. Priya is lovely and so caring with the children. My son looks forward to seeing her and the other teachers and students, and gives Priya a BIG hug every morning. She is the owner but also onsite and devoted to the children. This is SO comforting knowing our son is in good hands. Our old preschool owner couldnt name one child at her school. Two is a challenging age, and Priya has been so helpful in including us in her teaching strategies and techniques. Every week there are new projects on display showing the children are constantly busy and developing. We are so pleased with our decision to transfer schools and highly recommend Prodigy.
