We had a truly wonderful experience with Over the rainbow Montessori. Our daughter started going here after she turned 2 and graduated pre-k after attending for 3 years. She was a very shy 2 year old who was wary of outsiders. It has been incredible seeing her open up and become a confident and a talkative young child thanks to the encouragement from her teachers. The classrooms here are clean and spacious. The teachers are well trained and are good at handling children. They provide an environment where kids learn to be independent. The curriculum is well designed for every age group.The kids do a lot of art and craft but at the same time they also work on math like counting, addition/subtraction and do cool science experiments during circle time.The teachers read books in class and the kids work on their activity for the day which are designed by the teachers as per age group. The school is inclusive and exposes kids to all cultures. The facility is cleaned every day after school and is well maintained. The kids go outside every day to play in the school playground. My daughter had no issues adjusting to kindergarten thanks to the training and early education she received here .We really miss OTRM and its staff. I would highly recommend sending your child here.

Over the Rainbow Montessori School has been a wonderful and enriching experience for my child. From the moment we enrolled, I noticed how welcoming and warm the environment was. The school’s dedication to fostering a child-centered learning experience, true to the Montessori philosophy, is apparent in everything they do. The teachers are highly skilled and compassionate, creating a nurturing atmosphere where each child feels valued. They tailor their approach to each student, allowing my child to explore their interests and grow at their own pace. The classrooms are beautifully set up, with thoughtfully designed materials that encourage hands-on learning and independence. My child became much more confident, curious, and independent, thanks to the opportunities provided in the classroom. One of the standout features of Over the Rainbow Montessori is the sense of community. The classrooms encourage collaboration and mentorship among the students, which helped my child develop strong social skills and a sense of responsibility. The teachers and director are easy to reach out to and The outdoor spaces are equally well thought out, offering plenty of opportunities for physical activity and exploration. I appreciated the balance between structured learning and time for play, allowing the children to develop holistically. Overall, Over the Rainbow Montessori has been a positive and impactful experience for my child and our family. The school truly embodies the Montessori principles of fostering independence, creativity, and a lifelong love of learning. I would highly recommend it to any family seeking a nurturing and enriching educational environment for their children.

Both my kids have had the privilege of going to Over the Rainbow Montessori, and we couldn’t be more pleased with our experience. The teachers are incredibly caring, dedicated, and knowledgeable. They understand the needs of each child and create a wonderful learning experience. The classrooms are very organized and curriculum is implemented thoughtfully, allowing children to explore and learn at their own pace. Communication with the staff is excellent, and we always feel well-informed about our child’s progress. The teachers go to great lengths to make sure the facility is hygenic. We’ve seen significant growth in our child’s confidence, social skills, and academic development. His new teacher in Kindergarten said "his foundation at pre K and TK has been so exceptional that he is way ahead and ready for 1st grade already". The sense of community at Over the Rainbow Montessori is truly special. Highly recommend it to any parent looking for a nurturing, engaging, and effective educational environment!

Our daughter attended OTRM since she was 18 months until she was almost 5 years old. We adore the teachers and directors. They are incredibly attentive and responsive. They personalized care for our daughter and the Montessori routine helped her become very independent. The program is also academically driven, especially in the 4-6 year old class, which we loved. Our daughter is now very prepared for kindergarten but we will miss everyone at OTRM!
