This is our seventh year at ILMS. Our daughter started at 2 and a half in 2004. Our son started at the same age in 2007. We highly recommend ILMS as the PERFECT start in education for your child. Montessori education will foster the desire the learn and explore...and that is something that will stay with your child throughout their lives. It is truly the best foundation in education available. Ivy League Montessori feels much more like a family than a school. Earlier this year, our family faced cancer head on. Our son's teacher became part of our "team"...working with us to monitor the effects of his dad's diagnosis on his emotional well-being. She began sending emails if something seemed "off"... even if it was just that he was having a "different" kind of day. She became a true partner in raising our child. Getting through those months would have been much harder without her. That is only one example of the love that our children have felt since enrolling in ILMS...there are so many more. In addition to the comfort level we have with this school, we've been very pleased with the academics! Our 4th-grade daughter (who was at ILMS through "first grade" and is now in public school) has always enjoyed school. Long division and multiplication have come easy to her because of the hands-on manipulatives she worked with at ILMS. She makes straight As and always takes on any challenge offered at her school - writing competitions, academic bowl, choir, spelling bee - she is incredibly confident in herself academically. Further, she has a heart of gold and is always trying to work for the greater good. Our son (who will be 6 in December) loves to read and his latest accomplishment is writing stories. He writes about nature, friends, family. He loves math and has recently started working with the multiplication material. Montessori has also helped us, as parents, appreciate the different strengths of our children. We don't compare them with numbers, as you might be tempted to do with grades. Rather, we celebrate their individual successes. Here's a perfect example of a Montessori moment. We took our son to Disney last week as an early birthday surprise. We went to the Magic Kingdom, but he didn't seem really "engaged" so we decided to go to Epcot the next day. He LOVED it. Would have stayed on "Living with the Land" boat ride all day if we'd let him. It's a slow boat ride that teaches about different types of soils and climates, and growing food through hydroponics. His second favorite ride was "Soarin"... and he loved the international showcase. In fact, he said "I wish there were MORE countries!" If you only knew our son...he is ALL OUT, sports guy, cool dude to the extreme. Roller coasters would have been my default pick for his favorite thing to do. But the hands-on education at ILMS has given him a REAL appreciation for nature and the world around him... Again, we highly recommend ILMS...because of the family feel, hands-on learning, and solid foundation for future education. Schedule a visit to see just what we mean.

Our 7 yr old grandson has developed his language, reading and reasoning skills well beyond his age and well beyond his male cousin of same age in public school. We can't wait for his 2 yr old sister to start this coming January as she is already demonstrating rapid skill development simply by interacting with her brother.

I hear it is a great school :)

My Grandchildren love going to this school! They have learned so much about other cultures and I am so happy that they have this experience.

What's not to like about our beloed school. We've been there for 4 years now and we love it more and more each day. The staff is extremely qualified but especially loving and nurturing and the families are just the kind of people you want to have around your children as they grow up. Definitely ILMS is our home away from home!

Because the kids are the BEST in this School!!! That says it all...

Ivy League Montessori School has a hands-on approach to education and life skills and thoroughly engages its students. The student I know that attends this school is bright, well rounded and very expressive for the age she is, not to mention very intelligent. This school appears to be helping this young child develop in ways that she probably wouldn't attending a public institution.

Because my nephew goes there. It has been a wonderful experience for him.

Great School. The teachers make learning so much fun sometimes children cry when it's time to go home.

The teachers are exceptional!

ILMS is a great school. Their environment is calm, relax, friendly, family. The staff is great and delicate. I love ILMS
