Private Schools

I had looked into Excelsior back when it first started, deciding against it, only because there were only two students and one teacher. My son needed a little more socialization, as we had home-schooled throughout most of his school years, as he was very non-compliant in public school. We went to another school for a couple of years, then looked back at Excelsior, who had grown to around 10 students and 2 teachers. I moved him there. Since moving him, my son has really "taken off" in his education. He works on IXL at his own pace, and also at home, and he does classwork at school. His handwriting has greatly improved in the past year. He actually wants to go to school now, and in the 7th grade, was testing into the 9th grade. His teachers are very attentive to his special needs and know how to handle him. The school has gone through several teachers since we have been here, but I see that as the director has very high expectations of his staff, and promptly removes them if they do not work out. He has very high aspirations for this school, and is well on his way to making Excelsior a fun place of children's education. He tries various ideas to motivate the children, and that's not easy. Each child has a different "high value treat" for which he/she will work very hard to obtain. Each child is placed into his/her own grade, but works at his own pace, and is also challenged by his teachers to come up to their grade level and beyond. Right now, they have several rooms rented at the Fame Well Montessori School, and space rented at a Montessori School in Katy, if needed, but as the school grows, I see them expanding into their own building, which would be great for the image of the school. Make no mistake about the image of the school, though. This school has been the best thing that has happened to my son since pre-school, and I highly recommend any person who is sick of the boxed treatment of their child in public school to give Excelsior a try.

A great educational jewel tucked away in our area. If my Gbaby is feeling a little resistant her teacher & helper will allow her to sit & snuggle next to them for minute as they acclimate her into class. The entire school & admin team take the extra efforts to make sure you feel comfortable leaving your child in their hands. They care about the students and have high ratings with testings with the grade school students. Personally, I love it. Rena

Great School, Great Staff. My kids loves go to the School.

What an amazing, loving bunch of folks! Praise God! They treated the out of state missionaries to a wonderful dinner and the use of their church! Thank you so much! God bless!

This school is amazing and the teachers there too

My wife was hired to work there but she quit 3 days in because the school was so mismanaged, that it was impossible to teach the children. My wife has twenty five years experience and is certified in EC thru 4 and Sped. The director put twenty six children in her class ranging from ages 3 to 6. My wife was injured twice that day. Once head butted on her eye then punched in the stomach by a different kid. This all started when the 6 year old attack a 3 year old and she intervened. She found out that she was not the first to quit as she was the fourth teacher in that classroom for this year.
