Testimonials

“Having graduated from Montessori, I am aware nearly every school day of a keen desire to return to a Montessori-type environment.  I had some of the greatest teachers I will ever have while at MSR.  I was wonderfully prepared for my middle and high school careers.  It is impossible for me to fully put into words the quality and the well-rounded nature of the education I received from Montessori.”

 

I love school. I love school so much because of my teachers. My teachers were very kind, friendly, careful, fun and even more things. I go to MSR (Montessori School of Rome) which is the best and I think will always be the best school I will ever go to. When I was told I was going to move, I was excited but very sad that I had to move schools. Montessori School of Rome is my second home. Even when it gets hard, I love it. I like how we can be on our own level, and we have responsibility. At our school, we are taught how to be when we grow up.

The best teachers I had were in this school. I love our principal. She is funny, and she likes us. Some of my best friends are here. Our teachers guide us through and give us lessons when we need them. No only is this place my home, it’s the place I love to be. My favorite place there is the library. I love the librarian, Ms. Carol. She lets me come a lot. I also just love being around her.

So I would love to stay at this school. Thank you, Ms. Shemi for making a small place something big.

“We cannot thank the Montessori School enough for teaching our kids and advancing their knowledge base. Both of our kids learned how to read and write and got a lot of exposure to Science and Geography, which they would not have gotten anywhere else. Ms. Angie, Ms. Ana Maria, Ms. Ginny, and Ms. Pam are all amazing teachers and we will remember them always. We deeply appreciate all their love, compassion, and commitment to our kids.”

 

“The friendships and memories I made during my nine years at Montessori will last a lifetime. I will always cherish the hands on experience and amazing atmosphere Montessori offered; there’s no place like it! Being able to say I have had the same best friend for fifteen years through Montessori is quite remarkable. I can’t thank the incredible teachers enough for pushing me to excel and doing my best. Attending Montessori was a wonderful experience that I will always appreciate.”

 

 

“Best school in the world! My kids turned out pretty darn great and I credit MSR with most of it!”

 

As a new parent, I was very excited to have the opportunity to send our son to Montessori School of Rome. It was something very special to me as I went to this same Montessori School at the same location over 30 years ago.

I’m happy to report that our son has excelled since day one! His communication and listening skills improve daily. His independence, confidence and problem solving abilities are well beyond what any parent could ask for at his age. The way he processes everything that goes on around him is incredible, sometimes even scary.

I’m a firm believer that his development is due, mostly in part, to Montessori School of Rome and the wonderful teachers and staff that care for him. We are forever grateful.

I have been a student here since I was eighteen months old, and through my time here, I have experienced events such as International Day, Historical Timeline, and May Day that are unique to this school. Montessori has shaped me into the person I am today by helping me develop personal responsibility and a strong work ethic.

At Montessori, I formed a close connection with my teachers and classmates of all ages, allowing me to feel a sense of community. Because of our emphasis on community service, our school makes us feel we are involved in something bigger than ourselves.

The one on one time available with our teachers helps secure the foundations that will develop the child’s love of learning. These are all important skills in helping the child grow successfully into a mature, young adult, something that is difficult to find anywhere else.

“I will always remember getting to pick the sun on my birthday and doing the birthday walk! I also remember the peace rug and working out difficulties with my classmates. This approach helped me to problem solve and build relationships. I bonded with my classmates in such a unique environment that has led to friendships which have lasted through the years. Doing the golden chain in the lobby was one of my favorite memories!”
