Montessori School Of Holmes Run

The MSHR community is like a family. The staff are very supportive and treat each child and situation individually. I have 2 children attending MSHR one in 3rd grade and one in 4th grade both with very different needs. My older son has focus problems. He spent one year in public school where he was singled out for not focusing but was offered no assistance or direction. At MSHR his attention is gently redirected back to his school work and his teachers have taught him how to limit his distractions and guided him to success by giving him obtainable goals and encouragement. My younger son is very bright and needs constant challenging or he gets into trouble. The teachers have recognized this and let him go at his own pace while presenting him with new challenges when needed.The Montessori approach lets each child get what they need and gives them consistent feedback and direction. Parents are encouraged to observe the classroom and ask questions about their child's progress when needed.MSHR is one of the few Montessori schools in the area that offer the upper elementary grades, 4th through 6th, and may be the only who offer the middle school grades of 7th and 8th. MSHR is preparing my sons to succeed when they make the transition to traditional school.
