"My child started 1st grade in one of the renowned public school. It felt like he was being molded into the "norm," stripped of his individuality, and coming home with piles of repetitive homework papers. Halfway into the year, his public school teacher knew NOTHING of his strengths/weaknesses and showed little concern for challenging him. We found GMA and have been nothing but delighted with the leadership, his teachers, the passion for learning that they instill, and the celebration of each child's individuality. He is no longer stuck at a desk, lost in a crowd, or passively listening to teachers lecturing. Instead, he's researching, working on teams, learning life skills, exploring, and ultimately developing a love of lifelong learning in a manner that's much more consistent with the real world. Although other comments reference the teacher turnover, I will say that the teachers I have come in contact with teach because it is there passion, and they are given the freedom to teach to the children's needs and NOT just to ensure certain test scores are met. It's a beautiful place."

"This has been a great fit for my son and daughter. This type of atmosphere is great for all self driven learners. My only complaint is high teacher assistant turnover."

"GMA is our school. This year, GMA is under the jurisdiction of a new principal, as well as around 75% new faculty. It is so much better this school year."

"Wow, what a difference a year makes. Finally, a qualified school leader with a dedicated staff. Also, new to this year is a very interactive PTO and school staff. The new south campus is awesome with a very strong Montessori enviorment. Kudos to the board !"

"OMG! I was so excited to win the lottery and get into this wonderful school. All my friends were bragging about how their children were so happy and learning so much. The staff was great! Mrs. Trisha spent so much time with my husband and I talking about this school. I seriously cried when I got in!! Today, I just found out that the leadership has changed and most all of the teachers have quit! I've been reading the facebook page and I am very concerned! I am not taking my child and my friends are pulling out too! Parents should be informed of all the changes!!"
