Countryside Montessori Academy Reviews

Rated
by a  Parent  Anonymous
Countryside is one of the few schools that provides a Montessori education tuition-free. The administration and faculty are first-rate, and the student to faculty ratio is an amazing 10:1, with an assistant in every class! Countryside is one of the top scoring schools on the FCAT in the county each year (out of 50 schools). I am very happy with the education that my children are receiving at the school, and the teachers are very dedicated and capable. A Montessori-based education teaches children to work independently and manage their time effectively, very valuable skills for the future.

Example reviews:

"This school has absolutely changed my son's life! He is a brilliant kid who has a learning disability, and the staff absolutely understands his situation and teaches the way he learns! They are so insightful, understanding and capable, I feel lucky that we are part of that community."

"They have a newly built building which is absolutely gorgeous and very well laid out. In general the staff is caring, but firm. Only bad thing is that parent involvement is not encouraged. Yet!!"
