Forest Bluff is an incredible school that teaches kids from an early age to be independent and resourceful. Kids also learn at their own pace with the watchful eye of their teacher to make sure the school is fostering their development in a way most beneficial to the student.

My 3 children have gone through this amazing school. I cannot say enough about the teachers at this school. My children were so prepared for High School and they want to learn and succeed academically. The 7th and 8th grade program is the icing on the cake. Forest Bluff was the BEST decision we made as parents thus far!

I've had two daughters go all the way through the school, and simply cannot imagine our life (or their worlds) without a Montessori education. Forest Bluff is recognized internationally as one of the best Montessori schools in the world, and for very good reason (many very good reasons)... We never...
