My children have been attending Springstone for almost 4 years now. I have had all 3 of my children enrolled at this school through that time and have had no issues or complaints with the staff, management or school system thus far. We have loved having our kids there, and my older just finished kindergarten and was totally prepared for it when he started, and succeeded throughout the year, thanks to his prep at Springstone. We have requested the same teachers for all of our kids- Ms Bryanna and Ms Molly- because they are so kind, patient, and communicative about our kids needs. We could not have chosen a better place to start our children's education! we love Springstone!

I've been waiting to write this review, since my twins first started at Springstone Montessori back in 2021, because I wanted to provide a comprehensive and honest review. Now my kids are in their last week, after 3.5 years, which in itself can vouch for our experiences. TLDR: Ms. Bryanna and Ms. Molly in the Oak Room and Ms. Justine and Mr. JC in the Cedar room have really helped my kids flourish, gain independence, and grow confidence. My kids are going into their kindergarten more than ready in meeting milestones. Each classroom has a vibe or different flavor and I recommend learning about the styles of each teacher so you can see which would be best fit for your child. The Administrative Team here has finally gotten their groove and are functioning and communicating well. I appreciate their hours of operation and that meals/snacks are included. Highly recommend for a quality and caring pre-school experience. Off the bat and in response to some previous 1-star reviews -Springstone's philosophy is not 100% strict Montessori values but it is their foundation and baseline.. which, for our parenting style of encouraging realistic independence, simplicity, and kindness.. worked perfectly for our family. If you're looking for 100% certified, monotone toys, and no technology whatsoever, then I would suggest looking at other Montessori schools or homeschools in town. We toured Springstone back in early 2020 in order to get our twins on the waitlist. Soon after, you can imagine the flux that ensued which affected waitlist experience and my initial impressions upon registration. Between 2021-2022, there was A LOT of transition between administration, ownership, teachers, and their communication systems. This caused quite a bit of stress for me as a parent trying to potty train and transition classrooms where teachers were not consistent. I almost pulled my kids out but I am happy that I ultimately did not. Since then, the dust seems to have settled and the school is now operating more consistently and with minimal disruptions. My son is in Cedar Classroom with Ms. Justine and Mr. JC. My son is more sensitive, does speech therapy, and best functions with a stable structure that allows for flexibility which Cedar provides. While challenging at first (age 3) and always anxious to go to school (would cry almost daily), he has grown to love attending school, has developed a good respect for authority and his teachers, grown in empathy, and made good friends. He is also learning very basic addition and subtraction which I appreciate that the teachers recognize and can challenge him with. Ms. Justine also encouraged me to bring his speech work into class where she had taken time to do additional work with him during their work cycles. Ms. Justine and Mr. JC are very approachable, authentically develop a rapport with the parents, and have a lot of patience. My daughter is in Oak Classroom with Ms. Bryanna and Ms. Molly. This classroom came recommended for my daughter who is bright, bubbly, social, quick to learn.. but was also very shy, lacked confidence in trying new things, and feared making mistakes. Over the last year she has definitely gained her confidence and found her voice. She's reading sight words, has made her good group of friends (whom I imagine and hope will remain friends beyond Springstone), has learned to become a leader, and has become more challenged academically. Ms. Bryanna and Ms. Molly certainly know how to remain cool in any situation and are always looking out for our kids' wellbeing and best interests. Overall, I really appreciate the transparency, communication, flexibility, and approachability that Springstone affords. They are a great resource for parents as both a childcare facility and also a stepping stone academic institution. Ms. Marissa, Ms. Cruz, and Ms. Kristen have been very accommodating and understanding of any requests, discussions, or other challenges that parents may have. I can understand why certain programs have been eliminated to become more in line with Montessori principles and that they're still trying to find the sweet spot balance between operations and programming. Springstone was recommended to us over 6 years ago by families who had sent their children here and whose kids transitioned from the school and did very well in their elementary years. We are happy we were able to send our kids here and that they are going to kindergarten with the tools, mindset and values, and resources they need to do well in their coming years.

After almost 4 years of our daughter attending Springstone, the staff here truly became an extension of our family and a staple of our only child's early upbringing. This was her first and only preschool and her teachers were nothing short of incredible. Michelle was her very first, welcoming us with open arms and a natural gift for working with children. From potty training to life skills to basic education, she had our daughter's confidence at an all time high and was so very cherished! Moving onto the next class was probably more scary for us parents than our child, but we quickly learned we were in the best hands with Bryanna and Molly. These young ladies possess a level of patience, dedication and compassion a parent could only dream of for their little one- lucky for us, Oak room was a reality. And preschool graduation was a bittersweet moment for sure. The memories, lessons and growth our daughter was provided with over her years at springstone are something our family will hold dearly and be forever grateful for!

Springstone Montessori has provided my daughter, Aria, a memorable experience with the opportunities and extra curriculars given. I will always recommend this school to anyone who is searching for a daycare and preschool! With the Montessori values and the level of commitment these teachers have, it is a school worth enrolling into. Her teachers, Ms. Bryanna and Ms. Molly, are unforgettable! They always maintained an open line of communication with me and listened to any concerns I had with my child. Both women were so respectful and loved all the children who walked into their doors. You could also definitely feel the love the kids had for them each day during drop off and pick up. Ms. Bryanna was the very first teacher we met when starting at Springstone. She noticed how Aria was shy yet eager to learn. She helped foster Aria's love for learning, and when we had to leave town temporarily, she provided us with an array of lessons that would keep her engaged. Whenever my daughter was having a rough morning, she would go out of her way to sit outside and talk with Aria. Afterwards, she always made sure to provide me updates with how the rest of the day would go. Now, as she graduates from Kindergarten, she's been identified as a child who is academically gifted; a feat she achieved with the help of her Montessori teachers!

I really love this school. My child is currently in oak room with Ms. Bryanna and Ms. Molly. They are absolutely wonderful and extremely caring individuals. My oldest daughter was also in oak room with Ms. Bryanna and has done extremely well in Kindergarten and in 1st grade scoring high on all her MAP tests with her academic foundation starting in the Oak classroom. She also takes the initiative to help and teach others in the classroom which is something that she learned during her time in montessori. I currently have my youngest daughter in oak room with Ms. Bryanna and Ms. Molly and we have seen so much growth with her and we look forward to having her there another year. Ms. Bryanna and Ms. Molly are part of the reason we stay at this facility. It's not the building that matters. It's the teachers who make the place what it is. I highly recommend Ms. Bryanna and Ms. Molly for anyone looking to have their child attend this school.

My daughter has been in Ms. Bryanna's and Ms. Molly's classroom for nearly 2.5 years. While it is bittersweet that she is moving onto kindergarten, we are comforted knowing that she will succeed in all aspects. The attention, thoughtfulness and tools provided by these special teachers are unmatched. Communication is of the utmost importance and Bryanna and Molly are great at actively listening to our concerns + following up with them.

I placed my child on the waitlist until I felt he was ready to start, From the beginning of the process Ms. Cruz was able to help ease the transition into starting school, the registration and the communication with everyone in the office has being nothing but great. This is the first time my son attends school and the overwhelming welcoming of the school staff makes everything better. If I have questions or concerns I know I'm heard. Thank you Springstone for being so welcoming.
