University Montessori School

This used to be a wonderful place but about 2/3 of the students and families have left since March 2020 because it's become clear how disorganized, poorly managed, unsafe, and what the true intentions of the owners and executive director (same persons). They prioritize financials, are interested in running a business, don't listen to the parents, and have been saying the same things about education and are teaching the same way as 10-20 years ago. They had to be asked many times to clean the schools better. They have already had 2 COVID cases. They are saying they have to stay open for teaching, but use childcare as an excuse (state guidelines are that schools should be closed). They neglected to invite their highest grade to graduation (this is post-COVID closure) but write letters about those students' academic attributes, also lying about them at the same time. The teachers address bullying in a Montessori way by letting kids mostly handle things themselves. As a parent, I would be remiss to recommend this school to anyone due to concerns of safety, staff, and education.
