The Montessori School of Silicon Valley (Calaveras)

Our daughter has been attending Calaveras Montessori since she was 2yo and we have loved watching her grow and thrive at this school. From building relationships with her teachers and her friends to seeing the wonderful learnings shine through her. We love all the teachers and we’re truly grateful that they are a part of shaping her life. The seasonal curriculum and studio openings are such a fun way to get an insight on the children’s work and also to meet some amazing like minded parents. It’s a beautiful community and we highly recommend it.

In the beginning, the school was being run

properly the teachers were being treated
with love, respect, and appreciation I was a teacher at
the school for 4 years, and I noticed ever
since Ms. Melissa took the head of school it
went downhill from there. The teachers there
are underpaid and always understaffed as
more and more teachers came and went
because of the bad environment. And the
disrespect we had to take off the upper
management. As I will miss the kids and
parents they were so good to us. I will
however not miss the disrespect I had to Indore
working there. Just something to consider before applying at this company.

Today marks a big day for us, our lil man is moving out of the school. As a family we have been part of this school since June 2010 when my daughter started the school at 4 months. Since then time have moved fast for us. I have seen all the ups and down with the school. I am very grateful to the entire staff over there specially the teachers who have played a very important role in shaping the early years of both my kids. I do not have enough good words to praise the teaching staff at Calaveras. Personally I think they have shaped and made a huge huge difference in my kids lives. This school will be very near and dear to me even when I am moving out of this school with very fond memories.

My 4 year old daughter has been going to CM since she was 5 months old. My 16 month old son started last week. He had been going to a traditional Daycare-school since he was 4 months old and I had been eagerly waiting to enroll him at CMS as soon as possible. I have been time and again impressed by CMS for past few years. The teachers are truly amazing, very caring, loving and teach the children not only independence but how to make the right choices. I am amazed at what my daughter learns every day and how she has grown in confidence and her personality in a positive way. This week is my son's first week at CMS and he is already learning sign language and his body parts. In the big scheme of things, this is small learning but it is surprising how the teachers at CMS (Infant, Toddler and Primary) work with the children to make then self-reliant and communicate to the best of their abilities.
The director and owner at CMS is very responsive in any feedback you bring to her attention and takes necessary steps. As a parent, one of the tough decisions is to find the right school for the kids and I think that I made the right choice in sending my kids to CMS! Best decision ever!!
