We LOVE Forest Park so much. Our two girls are now in their second year here and it has exceeded our expectations. It is a tight knit community and the teachers are amazing. It has been great to watch the girls thrive and come home talking about all the new things they learned that day and proudly showing us their school "works" at the end of the week. It is clear they enjoy the school and are finding learning fun even when it is a difficult subject. Big thanks to the FP teachers for pulling that off and making school a place they are eager to go to everyday.

Our son has been at FPMS for almost one year, after attending a different Montessori school for the previous 2 years. His social and academic growth since he started FPMS have been dramatic and wonderful! He is truly excited about learning, and is always looking for opportunities to share his new-found skills. One of the nicest changes for us has been that he is HAPPY to be dropped off in the morning (which was not the case before), and often wants to stay longer at the end of the school day. The FPMS community of parents, teachers, and kiddos has been incredibly inclusive and welcoming; we are SO fortunate to have found this little gem of a school!
