“Ms. Genie was very communicative with us. She would always give us a detailed update at the end of the day. When there were behavior issues, Ms. Genie partnered with us to try to come up with positive solutions. We couldn’t have asked for a better first teacher for her.

We saw how quickly our daughter’s vocabulary developed. Ms. Genie also tailored activities to the interests of the children in her class. She clearly spent a lot of time and effort designing lesson plans that would engage the children.”

“We sent both of our kids to Palo Alto Montessori Academy and I would *wholeheartedly* recommend the school to any parent looking for a warm and nurturing place for their children to develop.

Ms Virginia - and all of the teachers and staff - are exceptional at their craft and show an incredible degree of care, as reflected by their attention to each child's development, their excellent parent communication, the creative activities and (most of all) their fun and engaging daily presence. Our kids have come home with stories about friends, songs about planets and just a general enthusiasm for school. They are more social and outgoing as a result of their time here. And I was especially impressed by the safe and loving environment the school fostered for the kids during some of the challenging moments of Covid.

Thank you again to the school and the teachers for a wonderful experience and for helping to shape and prepare our kids for kindergarten and life!”
