Our son is on his third year at Irvine Montessori. He really loves his school!! Much credit goes to teacher and the staff for creating a community feel where children enjoy learning and see themselves as active contributors in the classroom. I was unfamiliar with Montessori before this experience, but I can tell the self-paced curriculum encourages initiative and internal satisfaction from a job well done, no matter the level of the child. Our son was invited to attend the most popular g/t programs in town (tempting decisions...), but we decided to stick with Irvine because he has been so happy and has made amazing progress since he's started. Mary is very accessible and dedicated to the making Irvine even better.
