Austin Childrens Montessori

Our son spent 3 years here with Mrs T. and we were amazed everyday with what he learned. We couldn't be happier with the education and learning skills! He is just starting kindergarten and is more than ahead of the game! He loved going to ACM everyday and seeing his friends and we believe that all the teachers truly cared about him and his well being. We would recommend this school to everyone! Thanks ACM for 3 wonderful years!!!

I have three children attending Austin Children's Montessori and I have been very pleased with the quality care and education they are all receiving. Here is a list of what I appreciate about ACM: It is a pre-school, not a daycare. Learning opportunities are maximized while still allowing children to play and socialize. Annual parent-teacher conferences are held, in addition to opportunities to observe the teaching and learning right in the classroom. Mrs. T. has an open-door policy and invites parents to participate in school activities. And most importantly, Mrs. T. and her staff are very loving and attentive to all children. I was part of the ACM family when there was a lot of turnover, but Mrs. T. has now found a mature staff that is truly dedicated to meeting the needs of children. I whole-heartily recommend Austin Children's Montessori to any family who desires a quality education and a loving environment for their children.

I was very unhappy with this school due to its lack of organization and the difficulty I had communicating with the owners. The infant care teacher is very nice and seems to be great with the babies, but her assistants are not and when the teacher is out on holiday or is sick, it is the assistants that watch and take care of the infants.

Both my children attend ACM and we couldn?t be more pleased with how the they are treated and how the Director and her staff are personally invested in their emotional and educational growth. We?ve been at ACM for over 2 years and have found that the integrity and consistency in the staff and environment continue to make this a first class school. The children are very engaged in their work and are shown how to foster the learning process with the younger children. I am very pleased with Mrs. T and her commitment to prepare our children for the world.

This is truly the best decision we ever made for our son! This school is a perfect combination of care, love and education. Mrs. Thi and Mr. Sunny are doing a wonderful job. They have control over their staff (no teenagers but people with education and experience in childcare, low turnover), they are working with the parents every time their is a concern with the child (and do not blame you), the place is always clean (inside and outside), etc. Last but not least, my son loves to go to school. The owners go above and beyond their line of duty, no doubt. Also, the monthly fee is reasonable and the quality is very high.

I am proud to be a teacher at this beautiful school. A big THANKYOU to Mrs.T for giving me the oppurtunity to work with you and the children.I don't get up in the morning just to drag myself to work for a paycheck.I truely love teaching and nurturing the children,although some days can be challenging it is always something I look foward to.

18 months ago I wrote a glowing review of this school, but I'm sad to say I have to revise. The school has a had rough year and there has been alot of teacher turnover. I can't even tell you how many different teachers my son has had since Christmas. The owner has been having a very difficult time retaining good teachers and I get the feeling she is difficult to work for. I know it's difficult to communicate with her. The rates have also increased dramatically in a year and I don't see why. This called a Montessori school, but the owner is the only certified Montessori teacher, and it doesn't seem like they are applying the Montessori method. I'm afraid we'll be searching for a new school.

They allow me to leave my son there one day a week, which is very rare for a daycare. They even gave me a reasonable price! He is in the infant room. It's a beautifly decorated nursery where they give him so much attention. His teacher is so good with him, I don't worry about him at all while he is their. It's a very calm and loving environment. They even taught him how to paint! He paints me a picture about every other week! He has a great time.
