School Reviews

5  
I was so grateful to the wonderful staff of Good Shepherd Montessori. Both of my boys went to this school and felt loved and were super well-prepared for the elementary classroom. I can't say enough great things about this school. I never worried about my children while they were at this school. They have the children's best interest at the heart of everything they do. I was so appreciative of every moment my children got to spend at this school. They had the same loving staff for the 3-4 years my children attended.
