I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My three children have attended Montessori of the Tetons for a total of 5 years (it will be a total of 8 years by the time the last child goes to kindergarten), and we love it. There is no teacher turnover, Ms. Dee always gets the highest of ratings from child care center inspectors, unlike some other child care centers. The school is a traditional Montessori school, is clean and uncluttered. It feels like a school I would want to go to, when I walk in and look around. Children are well attended to and receive an excellent preparation for Kindergarten. The learning materials are interesting, stimulating, fun, simple, and important. All you have to do is call to set up a visit, sit through circle time and a bit more of the morning to know that it's an amazing place for children to learn, play, and grow into organized, respectful, responsible, creative, well balanced children. They have dance class once a week, lots of singing, arts and science activities and lessons, geography, math, practical living skills, and literacy and writing skills building. Their outdoor space is fun, safe, and thoughtfully developed with sand play, water table, play structure with slides and ladders, sled rides in winter. Early drop off is 7:30, normal is 8:30-9. Pick up is 12, 4, or 5:30pm. Her rates are the lowest in town for preschools. Class and school size is usually 10 or less, but sometimes 20 or less (with 2 teachers if 20). There is one class in the school. Go visit to see for yourself how awesome it is. Ms. Dee is a progressive minded positive teacher with years and years of teaching experience. I have sent many friends there too, and they now send their children there and love it too. Ms. Dee also happens to love working with children who others have deemed as difficult. Children make 15 flavors of ice cream once a year which they then serve at the annual ice cream social for students and their parents and siblings, after school one day per year. That's the type of fun learning activity that Ms. Dee creates for the kids.
