Sundance Montessori

Picking a school for your child can be one of the most intimidating choices we can make as parents. I know it was for my husband and I. But the choice was easy with Sundance Montessori. Coming from a family with strong ties to Montessori, I made sure to do my homework. I toured schools, I researched, read reviews, and when I came upon Sundance I was beyond excited. It&#39;s nestled under giant Redwoods, tucked back off the street, has the most inviting yard, a beautiful garden and the classrooms give the feel of being in a home. Beyond the appearance there is Miss Doreen. She was the first teacher we met and instantly knew we wanted our child to learn under her. There is something so special about Miss Doreen and the way she balances being soft, yet firm with the children. Her dedication to the growth and development of my child was incredible. She genuinely loves her job and it shows in the way she cares for the children. Then there is Miss Cherie. She not only helped in my childs class but runs the after school care. Miss Cherie is all heart. Such a gift to all the children and parents as well! All of the teachers at Sundance are absolutely wonderful and treated my child with so much care, love and respect because at Sundance Montessori, it&#39;s not just a school, it&#39;s a community. During our time there, Miss Doreen and her husband Mr Steve, took over the school and managed to make Sundance even more amazing. It is absolutely beautiful! They have put in so much time and care making the environment just as special as the learning that takes place there. My child, having since left and moving toward the end of her first year of school, just completed state testing. She reads at a mid 3rd grade level and ranked at the top of all categories tested. Miss Doreen and Sundance played a crucial role in this! Even this morning my daughter said that she missed Sundance, this is not a rare occurance. As I said, picking a school can be hard, but if you have ever thought of Montessori please look to Sundance, it&#39;s such an amazing school where Montessori education and community develop together. My daughter was not the only one who cried on her last day. It&#39;s just that special of a school.

The new El Dorado Hills campus for toddlers is amazing! My son from the very beginning has been welcomed, and loved. There are many great Montessori schools in this area but this was the right fit for my son. They do many great hands on projects, they involve parents and there is a low student/teacher ratio. As a parent and a montessorian, I would highly recommend this program to anybody who is looking for a great school for their toddler. My son will definitely continue on to the Pre-K and K program at this school. Great job teachers and administration for an amazing school!
