What Our Parents are Saying about Woodside

"As a parent, I want nothing more than to see my children generally happy and engaged at school while reinforcing their innate love of learning. Woodside Montessori has provided the staff and the environment that enables this to be my children's experience at school every day. My kids learn by doing, by active participation, and by teaching younger children. They have so much pride and sense of responsibility surrounding their learning and accomplishments.

I never dreamed, prior to enrolling my children at Woodside, that our family values of developing inner peace, respect of self and others, and capacity for kindness could be reinforced at a school setting. Woodside teachers hold these values at the core of the classroom lessons and dynamics; each child is respected as an individual against the backdrop of these important life values. I couldn't be happier and neither could my children."

Laurie, Woodside Parent

"It's hard to put into words what Woodside Montessori Academy means to my family. It is more than a school, it is like an extension of our family. Woodside truely nurtures the whole child.....mind, body, and spirit. In addition to stellar academic programs, they work to help children develop into caring, kind, thoughtful, cooperative, peaceful citizens of the earth. I am forever grateful for the wonderful experiences and happy times my children have had at Woodside."

Kim, Woodside Parent

"We've been very pleased with Woodside, particularly in the way the teachers foster kids' self-motivation. Our daughter shows a growing interest in, and knowledge of, a broad range of subjects. She loves going to school and genuinely has fun learning at Woodside. We also value the chance Woodside provides us as parents to learn about concepts and stages of children's intellectual and social development. This helps us incorporate learning and growth opportunities into our daily experiences as a family."

Derek and Mary Ellen, Woodside Parents
