Why we are so happy about the choice of school we have made.

As we celebrate the tenth birthday of our daughter, we reflect upon the many joyful years she spent with Mr. and Mrs. Thompson.

When we had started our search for a school, we were looking for a source of academic enrichment that would also enhance M’s values. We found this and more at Love of Learning Montessori School.

In addition to the high level of academics, my daughter (and family) joined a wonderful community of friend. Her LOL friends have been with her for five years and together they have created a safe haven filled with learning, mutual respect, growth, responsibility, individuality and love.

Now that our son has entered lower elementary, it is obvious that with the strong foundation Mr. Thompson and the class aides are helping him lay, he will gain the confidence he needs to absorb the rich curriculum available — in addition to creating his own close-knit web of friends.

We remain forever grateful to the Thompsons for their tireless efforts in maintaining a school of very high quality.

Kudos to Mr. And Mrs. Thompson and the Teacher and staff of Love of Learning Montessori School. Our approach to Kindergarten was to search for a school where the community of children is built on love, support, understanding, and encouragement. We have found such an environment for our two children at Love of Learning Montessori School.

The process began before our children started Kindergarten. We had a dialogue with Mr. Thompson who listened to our accounts of our child’s development, and noted our concerns. Since then, we have watched L. and M. grow socially and emotionally. We have watched them become valuable members of the Montessori community. They demonstrate a strong self-image and self-esteem. They have positive attitudes and dispositions towards learning as well.

This school has provided my children with the opportunity to play on their own and to work well alongside others. They are taught to respect others and to learn with confidence instead of by pure memorization. The kindergarteners are given a wide range of opportunities to feel out their strengths and allowed to seek out their teachers and peers to help them with challenges. The children are taught to read, write, communicate, play and develop socially and emotionally in a supportive and fostering manner. Our children have developed a confidence, which enables them to be successful learners. We are sure that our children will take what they have learned in Kindergarten into their future.

Very truly yours,
Dr. and Mrs. Michael Schwartz

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Thompson,

Thank you! You have made our wish for our children come true!

When F. and G. were just babies, we thought about what we could do to ensure inspiration and genuine interest in their education when the time came. We wanted them to view school and all that it offers with honest enthusiasm. Frank and I are both products of a public school education, which would be considered by most as adequate. We both remember school as a chore. In contrast, we wanted our children to have an educational experience that would leave them motivated while developing their full potentialities. We wanted them to come home from school each day looking forward to going back.

Love of Learning Montessori School has allowed us to realize our wish for our children. Our children LOVE school and, more importantly, they LOVE TO LEARN! What a wonderful gift. Results like this are a credit to you and the exceptional staff of educators that have followed you. This little home away from home promises to be recognized as one of the finest Montessori schools ever established.

Congratulations on your distinguished 25 year career as Montessori educators, and above all, thank you for giving our children this precious gift that they will carry throughout their lives.

With love from,
Frank and Kim Caponi
