Three Rivers Montessori School

We currently have 2 children attending this school. One is in the 6-9 (lower elementary) and one is in the 3-6 year old curriculum program. Our 7 year old had attended this school for the 3-6 program, however when she began K we moved her to public school in East Allen County. We thought it would be just as good an education and save us money. After one year we moved her back to TRMS. It was a mistake to ever move her to public school in the first place. Her class is small and has an extremely high teacher to student ratio. The methods of teaching are so individualized, and allow the child to learn by studing things they are truly interested in. My husband and I have learned there is no comparaison between this education and a public school education. It is worth every dollar spent.

This is our son's 1st full year at T.R.M.S. and we have had nothing but great experiences there. The staff is warm, welcoming and very knowledgeable about the Montessori way of educating. They are helping him to learn to be an independent thinker as well as how to interact socially.

We love the school. Our daughter started in the toddler class as a 19 month old and is currently in the 3-6 year class. We have been amazed at her verbal (both english and spanish)and social development. The staff always keeps us up-to-date as to our daughters progerss. The school has about 11 acres, a 100 year old barn, pond and goats. The place is just great. The montessori method is much different than i had thought. I had the impression that kids would run around and color and 'express themselves'. Wrong! i suggest you take a look at this school and investigate the montessori method.

My son has been at this school since the age of 3 and is now in first grade (lower elementary). There isn't enough space to say everything I could, so I rated them a '5' on everything!
