My daughter is in her third year at Gloucester Montessori. I am amazed to find such a high quality of education in a rural area like this. The staff is helpful and accessible. I have made friends among the other parents. I also appreciate the way that the staff handled a sensitive family issue last year. I have visited many Montessori schools, some in urban areas with high populations of professionals. Gloucester Montessori offers an education on par with that offered in larger, more financially secure areas.
I have two children at Gloucester Montessori school and I am very happy with the education they are getting. I wish the school would continue past 6th grade.
The Montissori principles are fantastic however you won't find them at the Gloucester location. I thought the guidance in Childrens House's (PreK - K) were fantastic and the children really seemed to excel in all subjects. The amount of knowledge they are exposed to and actually understand is amazing. But the lower & upper elementary classrooms fall short. The student are behind in basic skills you would need in any other school - so it's difficult to transition from one environment to another without additional tutoring. I would not recommend this school to anyone past the 1st grade.
This is a very good school. My children are learning how to be successful and productive memebers of society. The faculty are warm and are always willing to help. It is small, so the teachers can really get to know the children. My children are always excited to go to school, and I love hearing about the 'works' they did that day. I would definitely recommend this school to anyone who really cares about their children's education.
