"My son has been attending MCS since he was 3 years old. He is learning to interact well with other children and we have seen him grow in his maturity. He enjoys preschool and looks forward to his class three times a week. The curriculum is structured and focused on learning. He is learning to read and write words and numbers without tracing or adult supervision. The teachers recognize his individual abilities and challenge him without stress. The school provides language and music and ample play time for the children to interact with others at and around their same age. This helps build confidence and growth. Parents are regularly invited to participate in school activities including various theme parties where the children perform and show their families what they have been learning. There are some negatives, such as limited playground resources and school facilities, however, my son's success is the key."

"My children attended the school for 3 years, it was wonderful for my son the first 2, my daughter on the other hand had a terrible experience from day one. I kept thinking it would get better - what a jerk I was. Now she is entering 3rd grade and acedemically she is going to have to have additional tutoring to keep up with her classmates this coming year. I should have known this was a mistake when her kindergarten teacher complained about her hair hanging in her face and her first grade teacher was not even able to have the class of 13 complete the required course work. I will be feeling the effects of not taking them out sooner for a long time. There is no gym, music, sports, etc.. and parental involvement is kept to a minimum. Public school offers much more!!"

"I love this school. We moved from Seaford to Wantagh and decided to stay with our School. It feels like a large family. All the parents are involved in all aspects of the childrens' experience. I highly recommend it."

"I'm surprised this school is still in business. All the owner cares about is money, she is not interested in educating the children. She tries to pack in as many children as possible. I took my son out of the school after 1 month in pre-k, it was the best thing I ever did even though I lost $2750 because I paid my tuition up front like a jerk. I was the third parent to take my child out of that school in one month. If you try to meet with director to discuss your concerns she don't return your phone calls and if you go to the school directly she avoids you like the plaque. You are not doing your children justice by sending them to this school. I sent my son to a different montessori school (it was excellent) and there were 4 other past MSC students there."
