Hope Montessori Academy Creve Coeur

I didn't send my kids here, but I did tour the campus and speak with the teachers. First, it is a bit over 2700$ a month. The hours available for care are the longest of all of the local montessoris. The facilities are nice and the children all seem well behaved, but the admissions process has issues. They want to do a super creepy home visit (I hear thankfully suspended with covid) which has nothing to do with traditional montessori practices.. They are the most rigid and inflexible of all of the st louis montessoris. I know 3 families that have had children asked to leave because of "behavioral issues". It seems like they have just selected out very well mannered children rather than developed a superior pedagogy.

The best Montessori School in St. Louis. They meet all your needs. ❤️

The best school around. Hope feels like family.
