FORMER STUDENT OF MRS. JILL
Staying through Montessori through elementary school was truly the right decision for me. I was actually pulled out of Montessori for half a year or so, but the education I received elsewhere just didn't measure up, so it wasn't long before my mom put me back into Montessori. I can't even begin to list the ways that the skills I learned at Montessori Prep helped me. As a freshman at FSU, to this day I am using my geometry board skills to help me muddle through the perils of college pre-calculus. Furthermore, as a member of of the debate team here at FSU, the public speaking skills at the informal trials we conducted to resolve problems always come in handy! Aside from academics, the social perks that Montessori offered were immeasurable. As I sit here in Strozier Library at FSU I can literally picture the moment that Mrs. Jill sat me and another student down to help resolve our problem (which was nothing more than an argument over notebook paper, however it was taken as seriously as can be). I learned most of my social skills from Montessori, being that I spent my entire childhood there. And something can be said for these social skills being that I served as Junior Class President, Student Government Secretary, Debate Team Captain, Student Government President, and many more over the course of my high school career. It was Montessori that taught me how to choose the right friends and the types of people I should surround myself with. I can truly attest to the superiority of this institutions efforts. I miss Montessori too much!
- I really want to thank you for making this huge change for my son and me so easy. I am amazed and so happy that my son truly enjoys himself at your school and that he does not go off kicking and screaming like he has at the other schools that I have tried. You could not imagine how hard it was for me to leave my son in that condition and I had a very hard time concentrating at my job, wondering if he was ok and feeling bad that I had to do that to him. When I dropped him off the other day, he actually clapped and started giggling as I pulled up in your drive and it brought tears to my eyes, as he loves being there. I appreciate that you have great communication and that you notice things and are willing to speak with me. It really makes me know that you all truly do care about the well being of our children. I am really trying to be the best mother and parents and I appreciate any and all advice that you have to make those dreams come true. I know your school will do well and I will tell everyone how blessed I am to have my son part of your school.
