Lakeview Montessori School Reviews

Lakeview was founded in 1978 by Janice Mayhew and had just 15 students in that first year. It’s grown considerably in the intervening years, and the school has built a reputation on providing an inclusive, supportive, and forward looking approach to education. The school maintains a commitment to the whole child, while also providing supports to address a range of learning styles, including the fairly recent adoption of the Arrowsmith program.  Small class sizes also contribute to ensure a personal, student-centred approach to instruction. The philosophy and techniques of the Montessori method provide a foundation, though the school builds from there, including a dedication to 21st century literacies and Mandarin instruction. Extra-curriculars, such as the after school music program, are also a draw.
