Parents love Maharishi Shool for so many reasons. These include a safe learning environment in mostly single gender classrooms; a healthy learning environment, both emotionally--low stress--thanks to the practice of Transcenddental Meditation by both the teachers and the students, and physically--with many "green"initiatives in place; and a low student to teacher ratio--just to name a few!

The educational approach of Maharishi School using Transcendental Meditation develops the total personality of the student. The achievements of this school and these students give clear evidence that this approachs works. Also, the climate at this school is wonderful, peaceful and alert and all students no matter what ethnic, cultural, financial, social background, are good friends with each others! This school makes their students succed without stress and enables them to lead a happy and independent life full of self-confidence.

No bullying nor drugs nor bad behavior. Students are under much less stress than in public schools or even religious schools.

I love Maharishi School because it has the highest ideals and teaches the children to embrace the whole world as their family. The students care deeply about helping others and creating a better world and they are kind and bright, practical and idealistic. The whole atmosphere in the school is lively and happy and the students are enthusiastic learners who win award after award.

Because it teaches meditation as a tool for children to grow in creativity, reduce stress and explore the field of consciousness.
