Dobson-Montessori School Reviews

 
This school is a scam. They call themselves a Montessori school but the kids spend half the day sitting down at a desk doing monotonous math and written work, unable to participate in other activities such as show-and-tell until they were done. We were told they 'didn't teach to the test' but every night my children had homework from a book with the title 'Standardized Test Prep'. My children went to a TRUE Montessori school prior to this and they absolutely loved school and learning. Within a week at Dobson Montessori they were grumpy, irritable, bored, and declared that they hated school and hated learning. My children's individual needs were never addressed correctly. If you want a true Montessori experience for your child this is NOT the school for them.

as a former student now in college I can look back and attribute almost all of my academic success to this school. They enforce such a strong desire on their students to learn, compete, and appreciate life. In my opinion results show more than claims. Of my classmates from the jr. high program just about everyone of them graduated within the top 30 from their high school most of them ended up at extremely prestiges private schools such as Upenn, Boston, Tulane, Stanford, NYU, and many others on academic scholarship. Nothing but praise for the experience and one that i wouldn't trade for anything.

My daughter has been at this school since pre-school, she is now in the 6th grade. her state scores just came back, and she has scored in the top 1% of the nation. They teach children to love to love to learn. They teach children to be mentors for others. They teach children to love them selves and achive greatness. This is the most AWESOME school. I wish the rest of the worlds educators could learn and apply this schools methods.

Dobson Montessori is child-centered in everything they do. Any conserns or questions I have are welcomed and quickly addressed. My child loves learning and she has rapidly excelled in this environment. They are also attentive to emotional development and encourage responsibility and respect. I have been very pleased.

We couldn't be happier with this school. The teacher quality is excellent with one teacher to every eight children, the children are getting the individual attention they deserve. Every school should be like this one. My son loves going to school and is disappointed if I pick him up early. It seems that every child is very caring of each other and are all very well mannered. I cannot emphasize the quality of both the school and the teachers. There is a lot of parent involvement as time is taken to help with homework and assignments. We love this school.

I think that Dobson Montessori is a great school if your child is a high achiever. If your child requires any one on one attention or extra needs-they cannot provide that.

The preschool program is not a healthy environment for children. The school no seem concerned with the education of the children any longer and seems more interested in making money. The preschool program has become essentially a day care monitoring situation, as the teachers can not provide adequate attention to the students.

We love this school! Our child has learned so much. The content is creative and relevent and the teachers really connect with the children to make topics 3-dimensional and fun. I couldn't be more pleased.

my daughter attended kintegarden 2004-05 I absolutely love this school. The teachers love their jobs. we were welcomed with a smile every day. children are treated with the complete respect. positive enviroment... I can not think of one negative thing to say about Dobson Montessori. I doubt there is another school in AZ that even comes close to this 'gem'. You owe it to your kids to visit the school and see for yourself. Teachers always have the childs best interest at heart. This is the #1 school. The only downfall - it is a private school which means it cost money.

Dobbson Montessori is a well rounded school. Apart from their strong academic program they include music, art and other extra curricular activities. Classes are small and the students get a more personalized instruction. They have been rated the top 95% in the state (in reference to the ACT scores). A high level of parent involvement is required if your child is to do well (they have a lot of homework). I am very pleased with the school and I would recomend it to anyone.

Good teachers, with small class numbers allowing indivual attention. Challenges students with fun projects that the kids thrive on. Lots of homework. My kids love being there and want to be there.

This school is excellent. I don't currently have children attending this school, but did previously. Of the many different schools that my children have attended - this school was by far superiour not just in academics, but also in the educational environment. The 'whole' child was nurtured and devoloped. . . Awesome school.
