This school could be a great success if it was run in an organized fashion. Unfortunately, the new 'management' has made some poor decisions. The school is also filthy and stinks of cat odor. They are also starting to stray from the Montessori approach by splitting up the multi-age classrooms...this is not authentic Montessori.

Do not send your children here especially if you are a working parent. We spent a miserable year with this school. It's poorly run and dirty and a rip off.

When my son started Kindergarten at Datzyk, he could not read a basic reader book. I recently purchased a set of readers from pre-school to third grade level. Except for three or four sight words, he had no difficulty reading the third grade reader the first time he read it. He is also doing multiplication and starting to learn division. When he begins public school, I will not have to worry about his comprehension level with anything else he learns in the future.

I agree with some of the other posts regarding this school. We enrolled our children at Datzyk School because of the staff we observed and the Montessori approach. However, the staff who worked with both of my children who were in different classrooms left. The high staff turnover during our two years there and high staff/child ratio caused us to move our children to another Montessori school where we're happier. The school building is very old, dusty and moldy and the pets at the school also add to allergy and cleanliness issues. The school is sadly very unorganized.
