"PROs: -The management is nice and most of the teachers are as well -The schedule is flexible for drop-off and pickup -They have cooking class for kids even though they are expensive -They have different themes every month and things they learn CONs: -The rooms are outdated and are in need of a remodel -The management isn't good at communicating. For example, our teacher changed and we didn't know until the new teacher was there. We could have received a message at least through the app -There is a fun schedule of things like pajamas day but NO ONE does it. It would be great if teachers and management did and that messages were sent through the app to help engage everyone -The nap times are REALLY long. For toddlers it starts around 1230 and goes to 230. Toddlers cannot get off their mat during this time which seems unfair if you have a 3 year old for example who doesn't nap. I feel like one room should be made for the awake kids to play together -There isn't much outdoor time, only 30min until about 3/4PM which they go outside again if kids are still there. Wish circle time and things would be moved outside if nice out."

"Quality family owned Montessori school. My oldest son was cared for by the Adamo family and I can't say enough about them. I am forever grateful and they treated my son like their own."

"Pathways Academy is a terrible school. My child was enrolled there and because he was not a “model student” he was kicked out several times with no tuition being returned. We were made to wait 2 months for them to decide if they were taking him back. Our family lost a ton of money in lost wages and paying nannies while we waited for a decision that was never made. Staff does not care about the student or families. The owner of the school just sees each head as dollar signs. There were several times tuition was debited more than once out of my account. Pathways continued to take tuition from us even though my child was sent home for 2 months to “wait” They also owed us money for their newly government funded program. They doctored a letter to not provide the total refund. Even though they claim to be a Montessori school, it is not full Montessori and not all teachers are accredited Montessori teachers. You are supposed to be able to drop your child off at 8:30. There were several times I had to wait in the classroom until 8:45 or later because there was no teacher or supervision there for the children which in turn made me late for work. There are far better preschools in the city that actually care about the students and are not crooks. I would NOT recommend placing your child in the care of this school and be prepared to get charged a TON of “extras” at the end of the year."

"On behalf of everyone here at Soccer Shots Twin Cities, we just wanted to say how amazing Angharad and Sinead are! The love and passion they have for the children and the staff is a wonder to see. We're excited to be able to provide Soccer Shots to the children and families at Heartwood Montessori."

"I'm very pleased and very happy with PPM, I enrolled my 4 mts old baby in August and I have seen big changes, from rolling over, learning how to sit up etc. I was referred by a friend and to be honest I was a little scared leaving my baby with strangers on the first day. As the days went by we are welcome with love every time we arrive at PPM. Ms. Julessa and all staff are very nice and fast to communicate any information in regards your child. Love how you can watch your child through the camera system they have. The infants class teachers are great, specially Ms. Neelam there's always a never ending conversation with her when I drop off my baby she treats me and my son like if we're family and Ms. Heather always has projects to work with the kids. Love that PPM always has different activities for all the students. Thank you PPM for everything you do to keep all the students happy and safe.."
