Richmond Hill Montessori and Elementary Private School

I have had the pleasure and privilege to have been a part of this wonderful school in many different capacities-including Registrar, Vice-Principal, and Gym Teacher, beginning in 1994 and only completing my tenure in the new year 2021. This long time frame and the varied roles, have given me a wide and thorough perspective of the dynamics of all areas of the school. As such, I could share an unreasonably long post of positives, instead I want to focus on what has impacted me the strongest. This is a school where individuals are treated with respect, care, appreciation, guidance and kindness-students, staff, parents- every member of the community. This is what will always stick with me. All of the great qualities of the school-high level academics, the STEM program, the integration of technology, the overall balance of the program (strong in the arts and physical education) would be meaningless without the respect and care people are shown each day. It is a truly wonderful group of administration/educators who ensure that this special quality always remains constant. When you walk in the doors you can feel the positive energy right away and when the wonderful children are immediately heard and seen politely and warmly giving such friendly greetings and of course the staff as well, you know that you’ve walked into somewhere special. I will miss this part the most. I think back to talking with parents on the phone and answering the many questions and at the end of each conversation encouraging those families to simply come see for themselves. I knew that nothing positive I said would not also be seen when they came to visit or actually joined the community and this was exactly the same for staff, when I was involved in the hiring process-I knew when they became a member of the school they would see that all the positive descriptions were completely accurate. I am happy that there is a venue like this one (reviews) to share in writing what has, for so many years, been in my heart and mind and always will be.

very pog, do recommend

cool amazing school

Richmond Hill Montessori is a great school. The teachers are well educated and sound people. I love the fact that there is security right at the front door. No one can just walk in this is important for the safety of the children. I have come to know many of the staff members through out the years and you will not find a better group of people to teach your children. Many hours are spent to ensure the teaching material is current and software for our changing times. Looking forward to sending my grandchildren to Richmond Hill Montessori. Walter you have made and amazing team. And better yet great employees for the work force.

The commitment shown by the administration and staff inspires me. They go above and beyond to provide a creative, safe, and innovative environment for their students. You are going to want to enroll your child here. It will prepare them for the future.The best!!
