We had very disappointing experience with this school. The school was not upfront about many issues that would largely influence our choice from the first place. Child injuries and scratches were not reported to parents timely. You had to chase the teacher to find out what happened during the day. Not only that when you contact the administration, you will get the standard Montessori answer to every issue or question you might have. Think twice before you sign up. I agree with the philosophy of promoting independence in a child. But there is a fine line between a nurturing environment that encourages independence vs. your child will not be cared enough to even love the school and the environment. Also ask for the credentials of the teachers. The turnover rate in certain grades is high. There are good teachers in the school. But would you rely on your luck of getting a good one when you pay this amount of money for the best education you can offer your child? It should not be parents concern to control the quality of the teachers there.
