Riverview Montessori School

Posted October 21, 2009

My daughter has attended RMS for almost 1 year. She is 3 yrs old and she can write her name. Most importantly, she is aware of her surroundings, how her behavior affects others, and is learning about so many things that she would not in daycare. My family loves RMS. We do work with our daughter on learning new concepts so preschool only enhances what we teach at home. My husband and I feel that we have to be her first teachers and that helps with her wanting to learn more at school. She enjoys going to school every day.

Unfortunately I went along with expectations of a safe environment and because of the ratios etc...the curriculm and the location. My Preschooler was a repeaded victim of bullying seems that even with the ratios low quite a lot of unsupervised time occurs. Eventually the result came to down to a bloody attack and I have since removed my child. I tried to work with the school and thought maybe something was correctable but the school wasn't so welcoming to maintaining a truly open door policy. I regret that the only 2 Montessori Schools in our area are under the same onwership and management. I have admired the mothod and had hoped for my child to grow with the Montessori method here, but that won't be possible unless we are able to locate another school elsewhere under different management. Trust your instincts and protect your child.

Safety are a major issue at this school Unfortunately I don't feel the Brandon location can truly make up for the loss at Riverview. Too much unsupervision goes on or they seem to accept all kinds of troubled children they are not capable of controling form injuring others. Bullying, Biting, among others types of things that happen as young as prechool.
