Shalom Montessori makes you feel safe and loved. Thank you for all that you do! ----- Author: Molli Reboh Rating: 5/5 Date: 6/3/2024, 11:06:02 PM Review: We feel so fortunate to have had the pleasure of sending our 3-year-old to Shalom Montessori. He has incredible teachers who are truly caring and thoughtful. Morah Jahdai, Morah Karen, and Morah Avivit have had such a positive impact on our child’s early education. Dropping your child off is always difficult, but we felt reassured knowing our child was in great hands. The environment is very friendly and welcoming. Our son is always eager to go to school and doesn’t want to leave! We love seeing how much he’s grown and learned. The staff truly understands how to focus on the key aspects of children’s development, encouraging both academic and personal growth. They are also incredibly patient, always finding ways to engage and support our son. We’d also like to acknowledge the wonderful and hard work of Mr. Israel, who took care of all our needs and made us feel so safe, knowing our kids were well protected by excellent security. His efforts in maintaining a safe environment have given us peace of mind every day. We highly recommend Shalom Montessori to any parent seeking a nurturing, loving, and secure environment for their child’s early education. Thank you to the entire team for making our child's learning experience so remarkable! - Molli & Ariel Reboh ----- Author: Salome Tordjman Rating: 5/5 Date: 5/24/2024, 8:34:17 PM Review: My daughter has been attending the 71st location and I must say I am so happy about this whole year, the principle and staff are amazing and moral rosa takes excellent care of our daughter. She’s always so happy to arrive at school everyday. If you want a safe and great school for your kids this is it! ----- Author: Bunia Zalmanov Rating: 5/5 Date: 7/28/2022, 10:42:00 PM Review: Wonderful, warm, safe, and nurturing environment!

Author: Sarah Cohen Rating: 5/5 Date: 8/1/2022, 2:38:16 PM Review: Shalom Montessori school has been a second home for my children. The teachers and staff are so professional in their methods of teaching and learning and catering to our children. The environment is warm and welcoming. The children are cared for with so much affection and love and the Morah’s make sure to cater to all of their growing needs. I felt so reassured that my Children attended such a school that responded to their emotional, physical and mental needs- specializing that each child should feel overall happy. My children have learned plenty and continue to share the most stimulating lessons they received at school. From Torah related topics: parasha, aleph Beth, tefilla, holidays and overall middot/ mitzvoths etc to other life lessons; gardening, caring for the planet, the solar system, animals, vegetation and so much more! They offer a curriculum that enhances the child’s Jewish pride and Jewish tradition all while learning about how to be loving and caring of our world. More so, Shalom Montessori emphasizes on what is important for the child development and keeps a conscious mind on raising healthy and happy children ( from serving vegetables and fruits for Shabbat parties, etc.) I found a tremendous amount of growth in my children by attending Shalom Montessori and I highly recommend this school to all parents that are seeking a loving, nurturing, and stimulating school environment! Thank you to the Mr Israel and Morah Roxanna for guiding their team of staff and offering a dream school to our children. With much gratitude Sarah & Yosef Benisty

Love the Morah’s, they are so loving and engaging and they find ways to keep the kids attention. It’s amazing to see how much they learn at such a young age. And what’s more important, My son loves going to school everyday.

So grateful that this school exists. My daughter attended for three years and she absolutely thrived in every way. The teachers are in tune with each child and really put their heart and soul into what they do. The classrooms are clean, cozy and well stocked with quality materials. Your child will be in good hands if you are lucky enough to send them to Shalom Montessori.

I will never have enough words to describe how those three years our son's had in Shalom Montessori impacted him, and us as his family. None of my other children had been able to grow as much as our son during those three years. I would need to write an entire book to describe in details all the love, the learning, the care, the brightness and of course, the fun that was put in every single of his days at Shalom Montessori. I've never been able to experienced such a perfect balance between learning Torah, Secular studies, core skills, WHILE HAVING THE BEST FUN at such a critical age. Any days of the years, kids can come dressed up in their favorite costumes or in Pajama, daven in their costume, give Tzedaka, learn incredibly detailed stories about the Parasha, having great PE, having a blast with PlayDoh while learning all the different types of animals, plants, flowers, birds, and more - and read - and write - and the core foundations for logical mathematic and so so many other things. All this in 1 day. All this each single day of the school year. Each single jewish holiday was always an opportunity for a entire month of deep learning, re-living the experience of the holidays through crazily creative activities, and always so much fun. My review won't be accurate enough without mentioning the very brave and not always easy to keep school policy about Food was absolutely a game changer for our son's healthy eating habits. Chocolate and junk sugary food being not allowed in the school, kids are taught since their youngest age, to eat tomatoes, cucumbers, and fresh fruits for snacks, birthdays party and Jewish Hollidays. AND THEY LOVED IT!!!! They of course didn't even noticed, asked or were upset of it (this is usually a belief from the parents, not from the kids when they're taught good food habits at such young age). During those 3 unbelievable years, Shalom Montessori was much more than a school to our son, it was an extension of our house, and of our family. We are leaving this special place with a heavy heart but full of gratitude towards the amazing teaching team, Roxanna, her husband and amazing daughter, and each single teachers and staff members that truly made those years unique and unforgettable - for a lifetime.
