Our daughter is in her third year at HMS, which is testimony to her fantastic experience at the school. The teachers are competent and caring. The administrative team is efficient and responsive. We also deeply appreciate that it is a back-to-the-basics / screen-free environment for children.
I’m so grateful to have found HMS 4 years ago. My daughter started when she was 2 and just graduated from the Kindergarten program last spring. From the very beginning, the staff created a nurturing and inspiring environment that allowed her to truly thrive - both academically and socially. Over the course of four year, we watched her confidence blossom. She was challenged in just the right ways and gained a genuine love of learning that we know will stay with her for years to come. The teachers and staff are compassionate, patient and dedicated to the growth of every child. They also will feel like family by the end of the school year. They really took the time to understand our daughters personality, strengths and areas for growth and helped guider her through every stage. I couldn’t be happier with our experience and am excited for my 2 other children to start. highly recommend!
We have been sending our child to HMS for 2 years now. I must say the journey has been nothing short of "Amazing" because of the "Little things that matter the most". Here is what you can expect: When you enter the premises to drop off your kid, one of the school Directors or Admin staff will always be there to welcome you and your child. The lead teacher or one of the assistant teachers spends 15-30 secs patiently to welcome your child without rushing during drop off.. Also, you'll be surprised that the teachers from neighboring classes might also greet you with a wave and "Hi", "Hello", "Good Morning". This happens every single day for the entire academic year. The curriculum is really good where your child learns at his / her own pace. The teachers are extremely patient with the kids. HMS is truly a community where your involvement as a parent doesn't stop beyond pick-up and drop offs, there are a LOT of opportunities for parents to be involved as well and experience what it is like for a "Day in a life at HMS". For instance: We have book reading once every week, there is a concept of "Open Classroom" where parents can come and spend 30 mins with their child in class to do an activity they like, there are events for Halloween, Easter Egg Hunt, Diwali, Holi, Eid, Passover, High-Tea and so on where parents can support the lead and assistant teacher with organizing arts and crafts, games etc. For older kids they have cookie or lemonade sales which teaches them real life math solving and people interaction skills. We were impressed seeing some 4-5 year olds do the Math when parents handed them some $$. There is a parents-teachers conference twice in a year where you get a detailed academic report and an in-person meeting where the lead teacher walks you through the child's progress. You will soon see a drastic change in your kids temperament, composure and behavior primarily due to the values taught in class, the friendships they form where they learn to not only share but also manage conflicts diplomatically. Each kid in our child class turned out to be a resilient, independent and mature Montessorian and we are truly grateful for HMS and its community of teachers, staff and leadership. Thank you HMS!
We have two children at Hoboken Montessori School, and we couldn’t be happier! The teachers and staff are incredibly professional, caring, and dedicated. The Montessori approach is implemented beautifully — our kids have grown so much in their confidence, independence, and love of learning. The environment is warm, positive, and truly nurturing. We’re so grateful to be part of such a wonderful school community!
HMS is a true Montessori practice where everything is centered around providing the ability to solve a problem. We are very happy with the transition of our child- the teachers have put in utmost care and effort. And the results are visible through his development. The administration is extremely responsive and accountable. Our class teacher Miss Gen is fabulous- so sincere, attentive, focused on academics and soft skills and most importantly brings a bright happy energy in the class!
