"I love this school so much. It’s been such an amazing experience with Apple Montessori. I have 3 kids (all started school at AMS) and my third is in here. Such a great staff. Ms. Appleton, Ms. P and Mrs. H are so helpful. Always so polite and kind. My 2 year old came home expressing himself more and talking more clearly. So thankful for this schools location as well."

“We have been at Apple Montessori since it opened, and I have been surprisingly impressed with the school, the staff, and the facility. The school is well-managed by Ms. Appleton who is on top of everything! She handles communication perfectly, and she acknowledges any concerns parents may have. Hands-down, she has been the best director at a daycare facility that I have interacted with. Highly personable and approachable. In terms of the staff, our teachers, Ms. I, Ms. E, and Ms. E have been absolutely best in class. They take their curriculum very seriously, and my kids have been thriving educationally ever since... The facilities are great as well! Overall, this has been a great experience and exactly what I was looking for when I left our previous daycare... this is a legit school with top notch staff and leadership - highly recommend.”
