Testimonials

We've had some challenges with our little girl going to school for the first time this year. She is three and is in her first year of Casa program. Needless to say there have been several crying days, several stubborn resistance days, several excuse days when it comes to getting ready to go to school. However, there have been more great days, fun times, new friends, lessons learned, new language learning, developmental leaps. Once our girl is at school she has a great time. The teachers have been supper patient with the transition from staying at home with mama and little brother to self regulation and autonomy. The guidance and support from Ms. Cinzia, who was our daughter's first directress in Casa 3; Ms. Eda, her current directress in Casa 1; Madamme Magda and Miss Gaby, French and Physical Education teachers; and Miss Sonia has really helped reinforce our decision to send our children to Lakeview Montessori. We look forward to September when our son will be able to attend as well. Ms. Kristin has been a world of support to me each day when I seem distraught and frazzled. I can not say enough good things about Principal Maureen. What a great team of people helping my child become all that she is meant to be. I can not forget Ms. Carol for her kind words every time I see her. Those words are so uplifting. Ms. Denise and Ms. Janice are special to us as well for cooking and serving wonderful snacks and lunches that sometimes do not get eaten and most of the times do. She has tried several new foods and we are grateful for that opportunity. Thank you!

LMS is a wonderful place for children to learn at their own pace. It does not feel institutional at all, it feels like a small family. The teachers are so amazing and caring. I am pleased to have my son be a part of and study in this environment!  

The decision of where my children should begin school was not as difficult as I had thought. Knowing that children are like sponges and absorb almost everything they are introduced to I knew that Lakeview Montessori School was the place. I was impressed with what my children were taught and introduced to in the Toddler and Casa levels and amazed with the knowledge level in the Junior class. The Junior level is where I as a parent saw my child soar. I knew that choosing Lakeview Montessori was the right choice.

We have found a home at LMS. The quality of education as well as the dedication of the staff have exceeded our expectations. We are so glad we made the switch from the public school system!

At our last school we felt no one really cared for our child's needs despite being involved at the school. At Lakeview we are overwhelmed by the attention and support he receives not only from his teacher but all of the staff and students. The result is that he is a much happier and more confident child. It makes me think of the quote "It takes a village to raise a child". Lakeview is our village.

My experience at Lakeview Montessori was truly amazing and I feel that it really prepared me well for the IB Programme. I would definitely recommend it to anyone else who wants to take part in the IB Programme as well.

This is our son's first year at LMS.   We are are thrilled with both  the teachers and the creative curriculum.    Each day our son comes home from school inspired by yet another amazing day at school!   There could not be a better endorsement for a school.     We researched the other private schools in Windsor and LMS is by far superior both intellectually and creatively    In my view,  comparing LMS to other schools is like comparing Harvard University to a Community College.  We recommend LMS without reservation for children of all ages.  Run, don't walk,  to attend an observation day!

I would like to commend your school on implementing the Arrowsmith Program. It is a wonderful program and your students are so lucky to be able to benefit from it. I am a parent (10 yrs now) and have two children attending Montessori school in Ontario. We also travel two hours each way for my daughter to attend the part-time Arrowsmith Program in another city. My hope is that more Montessori schools, and other private and public schools, will follow your example of being current and relevant in education today. I truly value Montessori education and do believe that Arrowsmith program is a great addition to it. The closest Arrowsmith program for us is two hours away and my hope is that will change in near future. So please, spread the word in Montessori community

Great environment for learning and a passionate faculty who love what they do.
