School Reviews
5 3/16/2012
We have sent our child to Montessori Radmoor for four years. He started with the Toddler program and now he is in the primary classroom. We could not be more pleased with the curriculum, teachers, staff, administration and sense of community. Since we have been there, they have really kept the tuition increases minimal and are willing to work with families on scholarships. Our son has blossomed there and we plan on keeping him there through elementary. After exploring all the options, we continued to be impressed with the school and feel blessed to have found it.
