This school is wonderful! the learning environment is loving and calm. My son loves to go to school everyday and hates to leave. The teachers and staff are warm and open to comments, suggestions etc and work along with parents to resolve any issues. My son has been going thru some physical therapy and his teacher did whatever we needed her to do to help him. Highly recommend!

My children have been at this school for three years and love it. The academic program is wonderful and Montessori is a well-rounded education style. The new Head of School has a fabulous background internationally as well in the US, and is heloing the school grow in the right way.

My child just started the preschool program and has really come to love it. Due to the intimate size of the school and it's community atmosphere, it's been easy getting to know other parents and the staff of the school. My child's teacher is caring yet firm which lends itself to happy kids who are eager to learn. The staff is very helpful and the principle can be seen walking the halls, checking in on classrooms, and talking to parents. The parents are engaged and eager to help one another. The only negatives are that they might need more administrative staff as small things get put on hold until they can get to it. But I don't see this as a problem that will affect my child's ability to enjoy herself and learn.

My kid loves this school so much, and so do we. All the kids I've encountered who attend this school are happy and well-adjusted. They are remarkably interested in what they are doing and proud of the achievements. I'm impressed by the level of involvement by adults, from parents to teachers and support staff. Definitely recommended and well worth the cost to provide our child with an unparalleled education.

Nurturing and safe environment. Head of School has over 2 decades of leading Montessori school experience. Teachers are all Montessori certified. My son has been attending the school for 2 years and has become an empathic, precarious and inquisitive 5 year old. I highly recommend this school to anyone. He also can write in Hiragana and can read both Hiragana and Katakana. He also is now writing sentences in English and is completing addition exercises with ease. But the best part is he is a kind hearted child who respects himself and others. This school has helped us in our journey of raising a well-rounded individual.

My child has been in the program since last fall and I've seen tremendous growth and self awareness in her. Her practical life, organizational, and academic skills grow every week. The teachers are kind and intelligent. They provide effective positive discipline that really works. The opportunities at this school for a well-rounded education and emotionally balanced experience far exceeds my previous notion of the pre-school experience. As for cost, I've found it only marginally higher than a quality pre-school in a daycare setting. They have year round, all day care for working parents which is a relief to know you child is in a safe and caring environment. The pre-school is equipped with a locked door so school officials can buzz parents, parents and children do not freely enter the building. The Parent board is highly qualified and interested in the success of the school for the children.

Upper management, new management, had no experience with running schools. VERY expensive. No child psychologist on staff. No Nurse. Lax security.

intercultural is an excellent choice for immersion bilingual education. the teachers are excellent. if your child is one who needs a lot of discipline (like mine) you might want to think twice about montessori education. it is very child centered and directed. however if children are not good at self direction behavior issues ensue. i think the parent teacher communication could be strengthened but overall i think it is a wonderful school.
