"We chose Montessori for our son at the age of 3 after looking into various programs. We felt the Montessori set up allowed him to learn at his own pace and had the ability to build his confidence based on a variety of learning options within the classroom."

“We chose a Montessori school because it allows each child to learn a wide variety of subjects/skills at their own pace, and most importantly, it promotes kindness and respect for others as well as self-discipline and character. Our son’s experience at Absorbent Minds has carried over to his behavior outside of school as well–using manners, taking turns, picking up his toys, helping at meal time, etc, the school helped us get the best aba services, my chіld’ѕ therapist was able to uѕе my son’s оbѕеrvаtіоnѕ from thе initial соnѕultаtіоn tо сrеаtе a fоrmаl plan fоr thеrару . He was also encouraged to use some of the skills he mastered, such as math, to help teach his classmates. This has been an incredible help to us at home since the addition of his little brother, who he now ‘teaches’ too.”

"At age three, Montessori allowed my son to learn from the four and five year old students who were setting examples. Now five himself, he is setting the example. Montessori goes beyond the scope of preschool and individually encourages each child to want to learn more because of the influence of the older children’s’ good manners, reading, tying shoes, etc. and the younger children want to do what the older children do. The result is greater success in school and leadership skill development."

"As an only child, Montessori has provided an opportunity for my son to have the positive influence of the older, and now younger, children. This has helped in his understanding of sharing, patience, teaching, mentoring and encouraging others."

“My husband and I are amazed at how much our son has already learned and how well he interacts with his teachers and classmates. We love knowing that he is in such a safe, caring environment and he is so happy there. He tells everyone that he LOVES school. Absorbent Minds is a truly special place and we already plan to have our younger (1-yr old) son attend in a couple years when he is old enough!”

“Our daughter (4 years old) is reading early reader books on her own! She can count to ten in 12 languages. She knows the difference between phalanges and femurs! She is taking dance class and sign language! She has learned how to hospitable and sharing towards others by bringing in and serving monthly snack, as well as the importance of cleaning up! She has learned to shake hands when meeting a new person. Our daughter has truly grown and developed into a wonderful student who loves school and learning more everyday! She has learned structure; she has learned to stay on a schedule and how to act as leader. She has learned to take her independence and use it an art project or to decide to learn to read. Our daughter has made many friends and had tons of fun!! Absorbent Minds is the best. Hands down!”

"Our son has gained a variety of educational skills. However, more important to us, he has learned how to be a self-sufficient, confident little boy. The Montessori classroom at Absorbent Minds provided him the freedom to explore, but also the guided touch from his teachers on how to excel with each work. The set up allows for different ways to teach basic learning (math, science, reading), but with different techniques. We believe that no two children are the same and, given choices, children can grow and learn at their own speed from a Montessori classroom."
