LOVE this school! My daughter started going to Countryside at around 1 1/2 yrs old after being in an in-home daycare because I wanted a more structured and learning environment. The teachers are very caring and all the materials are high quality. Many of the teachers and assistants actually attended the school when they were children. That tells you something. All the parents I talk to are so happy to have their children at this school, as am I. There is a long waiting list.
This school is wonderful -- my daughter was enrolled from 5 wks of age through kindergarten and she loved it! She started first grade able to read at a third grade level and with a healthy desire and curiosity to learn new things. As a single mom I worked part-time at the school. I thought that this would make me more likely to have issues with it (you never know what happens when the parents aren't there, right?) but instead a gained more respect than I previously had. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this school to anyone.
I was a teacher at Countryside Montessori for 9 years before I got married and moved to Alaska. I cannot tell you how much I miss this wonderful school. There are so many wonderful experiences the children are exposed to every day. Animals, gardening, special visitors from farms, reptile handlers, as well as hands on materials that are proportioned for small children in an adult world. It is also very important to involve parents in the everyday activities of their child and Countryside provides this without question. This wonderful Montessori provides enough love and attention to both child and parent that it allows parents to go to their place of work feeling content and at ease with their choice of enrollment. You will not make a mistake by taking a visit to this school to observe their menu! Anna Marie Ellis AKA Anna Marie Buckenmeyer
My 2 year old has been enrolled since 14 months old. She absolutely loves it here. The teachers are wonderful, and the school has a very low turnover rate.
