The York region have many Montessori school options for parents to choose from, making the decision very difficult for parents and families in Richmond Hill. Montessori is an eduational philosophy that has proven to be successful for early education learning, but not all schools are the same. Parents should look for a CCMA accredited Montessori school to ensure true Montessori programing is delivered.
Which Montessori in Richmond Hill is the best?
I visited many Montessori schools in our area before choosing York Montessori School in Richmond Hill for my daughter. My only regret is not starting her at age 2 instead of at age 4. Even with her relatively late entry to the program she has thrived. York Montessori School provides a safe, clean, nurturing environment that follows an authentic Montessori approach to learning. I feel completely secure when I drop her off each day that she will learn something and that she will have the best care. When we found out my daughter had selective mutism, the director and the teachers put a lot of effort into working with us to implement strategies without compromising Montessori principles. A large part of the success my daughter has achieved to date in combatting her selective mutism is directly attributable to the caring and support she receives at York Montessori. She will enter grade 1 next year reading and writing above grade level. Her confidence and independence have grown tremendously. I would not hesitate to recommend York Montessori School.
