Editorial review from Citysearch

My experience in the school was very horrifying. The school expects the kids to behave like adults and if Boys play the regular ‘Boy’ games; the school complains. The teachers of another school next door to this one, mentioned that when these kids come to the park, they take their kids away, because they are so rowdy and the teachers just stand and watch. My son was here for 2 months for full day school (including before school and after school care). He was 3 years when he joined and I pulled him out 2.5 months later. The directress does not understand that Boys play regular boy games and...

At least one of my children has been attending NSMS since. The classrooms are spacious, and the school surroundings are very well maintained. I love that the school is located on a dead end side street. No traffic to worry?

They have some great teachers, but the administration is poor. Communication is inconsistent (often wrong info is sent out) and parents are constantly being hit up for donations. Although the tuition is one of the highest in the area, the least amount of services are offered (e.g. no full-day care offered during school breaks, as at other local Montessori's). The facility and grounds are nice, and they are really good about getting the kids outside as much as possible. The even have ""Sledding Days"" in the winter and ""Bike Days"" in the summer!
