Wilson Montessori is an amazing community of gifted educators, involved parents and eager students. We're thrilled that our daughter was lucky enough to secure a magnet space in this school.

Woodrow Wilson is the only public K-8 Montessori School in the city of Houston!

We have 2 children enrolled and this is our 4th year there. Our 5th grader's class has not had a consistent teacher throughout the year! No teacher at the start of the year, then they found one for the 2nd 9 weeks and now that teacher did not return after Spring break back to subs and fill ins. It s extremely difficult to see your child with fragile self esteem and learning disabilities lose ground because HISD was not prepared. The Montessori Method s core is a competent, skilled, experienced guide (the teacher) that will be with the child for 3 years at a time I can very sadly say that Wilson has totally failed our child in this key aspect of Montessori. His education, social skills, and difficulties with transitioning have all suffered. However, even with some flaws, Wilson Montessori beats any TRADITIONAL style school!!!! With a new principle, comes the hope of better Montessori trained teachers that will fit together to form the best team and that is our hope. We know she will do what it takes to find the best teacher for our son s class. As parents of Montessori children, we are well aware of the benefits and continue these in the home. So, let s hurry up and get a competent MONTESSORI teacher in there STAT! Let s not lose anymore ground

We have two children at Wilson, 3rd and 5th grades, who have been in the Montessori program since its start there. The growth has been remarkable and we are very pleased. The teaching staff are excellent, dual certified, dedicated and creative. We are grateful to have had this option. Great historic building, but the T-shacks do need replacing - a chronic problem in HISD.

Our son is on his third year at Wilson. He really loves his school! Much credit goes to his teacher and the staff for creating a community feel where children enjoy learning and see themselves as active contributors in the classroom. I was unfamiliar with Montessori before this experience, but I can tell the self-paced curriculum encourages initiative and internal satisfaction from a job well done, no matter the level of the child. Our son was invited to attend the most popular g/t programs in town (tempting decisions...), but we decided to stick with Wilson because he has been so happy and has made amazing progress since he's started. The new principal is very accessible and dedicated to making Wilson even better. The building is older, but in the end I don't think that matters at all!

montessori enviroment is one of the best education tools for our children.It has been proven elsewhere.Wilson is in its infancy state and working to improve as fast as possible.Parents are very involved. Support from HISD is improving.Tests do not reflect what my two childrens are learning at Wilson. Good school.

This is my daughter's first year at Wilson Montessori and we have been very pleased! She is in Pre-K and is thriving. The students seem happy and engaged in the Montessori environment. The teachers are very kind and caring. Wilson has a strong sense of community and parent involvement. Great school!
