"We have been part of the Mission Montessori family for over two years, and I want to start by expressing our deepest gratitude for the wonderful start this school gave our older son. Our experience in Ms. Natalie’s class was exceptional; she brought so much passion to her teaching, and my son still has remarkable memories of learning about geography, animals, and space. He was always excited to go to school and share what he learned. I also want to personally thank Ms. Leandy. She is an incredible educator who truly listens and cares. When I felt overwhelmed or worried, both Ms. Natalie and Ms. Leandy offered so much love and support. They made us feel like the school was a second home, and I have shed many happy tears in their classrooms because of the bond we shared. While our journey with our son was beautiful, our experience with our daughter’s classroom was unfortunately different. We didn't experience the same level of academic variety or communication we had come to love, and we had some concerns about classroom maintenance and student engagement. It was a very difficult and emotional decision to move our daughter to a new program, as we had never planned to leave. We will always cherish the memories and the love we felt from the staff members who truly poured their hearts into our children. We wish the school the very best and hope our feedback helps them continue to grow."
We started our baby at Mission Montessori just before her 1-year birthday. The staff is so attentive, organized, communicative -- and the lead teacher for the infant class Ms. Tina is so caring and gracious; we truly appreciate all of the teachers that care for our little one at this school. I love seeing the photos they post through the portal, the weekly music sessions, and I especially value the fact that they treat the children as competent little humans that are striving to learn.
My child is going into his second year at Mission Montessori. We are so grateful to have found Mission Montessori. The staff is truly exceptional - patient, loving, and genuinely care about each child. The environment is calm and inviting and the classrooms are bright, organized, and filled with engaging, hands-on materials. I have felt secure knowing that my child has been supported throughout his time here. It’s clear that the staff is deeply committed to the Montessori philosophy and to creating an environment where children thrive. I couldn’t be happier with the experience my child has had here. If you’re looking for a nurturing, high-quality Montessori program with outstanding staff and a beautiful learning environment, Mission Montessori is an absolute gem.
Our four children all attended Mission Montessori. It's a wonderful school where they're not just being supervised like your typical daycare; the kids are doing meaningful activities that really grow and develop them. It is Christian-themed which we love. Our older kids were very well prepared for Kindergarten and "big kid school" when they left MM. Very fortunate to have found Mission Montessori and can't say enough great things about Ms. Sara, Ms. Brittany, and all the wonderful teachers and staff.
Four of our children have attended Mission Montessori. All the teachers and management are wonderful, the facilities are clean, bright and beautiful. All of our kids have loved their time at MM and the learning/programs have prepared our children for their entry into elementary school.
