Guidepost Montessori - Goodyear Omdömen 1

My family loves Guidepost Montessori at Goodyear from our heart. My children have been in the school for one and half years.

First, all the guides(teachers) and school office staff understand kids of different ages so much better. They know each child has his/her own pace and teach the child individually in addition to group learning. One of what most impressed me is that all staff here knows when a young child is hungry, thirsty or sleepy, he/she will be upset and can’t follow directions well. When this happens, guides or school office staff here will gently get a child calm down by giving him/her space, a nap or some food or water. The school provides a few snacks from morning to late afternoon. Snacks are very well scheduled and chosen. Many guides, especially Ms. Doll, Ms. Tara and Ms. Heather, were very helpful to help my boy’s transition to Montessori environment from traditional school.

Second, staff here is very kind and patient to children and their patents. They do try their best to solve problems. I have been always informed by Ms. Doll and school office of what happened and needed attention promptly. When my boy graduated from Ms. Doll’s class, he expressed his true feeling that he did not want to graduate because he loved Ms. Doll very much.

Third, Montessori school put children of different grades in the same classroom, which helps older kids learn to take more responsibility and younger kids learn faster and more both in academic knowledge and sociability. I am so happy to see my girl and boy go to the same classroom every morning and share a lot more than I expect.

Fourth, I really love the school’s before and after school care. Parents can even send children to school in spring break, fall break, Thanksgiving break and Christmas/NewYear break without paying extra money. Thank all school staff for sacrificing your precious personal time to take care of our children.

To my family, this school is a gem.
