We have two children in the Beginners Program at Newton Montessori and we love the school. As a parent, there is nothing better than seeing my children light up when they see their teachers in the morning. They have a big smile on their face when I drop them off and a big smile when I pick them up at the end of the day. I really enjoy seeing videos of their classroom activities, especially Spanish, Music, and Library class. Their teachers are warm, communicative, and really make the school a special place.
