Fernwood''s AMS-accredited programs, outstanding educators, and beautifully prepared facilities have given my two kids an exceptional foundation - growing in independence, language, and a genuine love of learning. Ms. Mars and Ms. Shaheen lead a staff that truly nurtures each child as an individual and at their own pace, while extracurriculars like soccer, basketball, Jump Bunch, and an 8-week summer camp keep the kids engaged throughout the year. My kids have attended Fernwood since Age 2 (the eldest completing 3 total years in the Toddler and Primary programs, enrolled for another year in Primary; my youngest completed one year in the Toddler class and is enrolled in the Primary program for next year; both kids attending summer camp this year and my eldest attended summer camp the last two years). I highly recommend Fernwood for any family looking for a quality education and strong community.

Fernwood Montessori has been more than a school for our two boys for the last 2 years. It has become our community. The staff and teachers at Fernwood take the time to get to know your child extremely well, whether they are the head of the school or admissions, or the main teachers and adjunctive staff who take care of them every day. Our family was new to the area when we joined Fernwood and one of our sons had a harder time adjusting to the new environment. I will not forget how the Fernwood administrators and teachers supported him and communicated with us regularly as he eased into a new routine. Our family had a few challenges in the last couple of years and having the consistently warm presence of our Fernwood community has been truly invaluable for our whole family. The Fernwood Primary and Toddler class teachers are highly knowledgeable and Montessori-trained. They work with the children one on one to ensure they are understanding concepts before advancing to more complex tasks. We relied on the before and after care hours as well, which our boys loved for the unstructured free play time. We wanted a school for our boys to learn, be challenged, grow and most of all be loved-we feel truly fortunate to have found that in Fernwood Montessori.
