Central Coast Montessori Preschool

Teacher Laurie is amazing. Our daughter loves going to school every day and we have had nothing but positive interactions overall with both teacher Laurie and Sharon. We have made several friends through Central Coast (both our daughter and my wife with other parents) and feel confident leaving our child here every day. Our son will soon be enrolled with her next school year and know he’ll have a great time.

I feel that it is my duty as a parent to share my experience with you. My biggest regret as a dad thus far was sending my kid here. My child is now enrolled in TK and is excited to goto school everyday, he loves it. When my child was a student here he would dread it and cry everyday. As time passes more and more stories have surfaced about his hardships at this school. Haunting tales about being physically seized and verbally accosted by the teacher, and not being allowed to drink water. Months later he still tells us “I hated it at montessori.” If that’s not bad enough when we tried to part ways a month early, the teacher harassed us to pay for the month that we wouldn’t be in attendance, even though we had given proper notice. Maybe the teacher (not both teachers, Sharon is wonderful) assumed students aren’t verbal enough to report, or maybe my child was just bored by the same curriculum both years. Much of it can be left to debate or speculation. All I could do is share with you my story, but ultimately it’s up to you to decide. Good luck and god bless.
