My 5 year old son currently goes to Small World and is in their Kindergarten program. My older son also went there and completed the kindergarten program as well. This has been such a great school for both of my boys and I have been impressed with the curriculum as well as the wonderful activities they involve the children in. They have also learned about many cultures. I love that the school is so diversified with children from many different backgrounds. My younger son will soon be graduating from Small World and everyone there will be very missed.

I have had two children at Small World. My oldest daughter was there from the time she was 12 months until she was 5. When she was 2.5 people couldn't believe she was able to color so well, knew how to count and group numbers and could understood so much about other cultures. When she graduated, she was able to read and was doing 1st grade math work. Both my girls have learned practical life skills such as buttoning, zipping, how to put on their socks and shoes, how to put their coats on. They understand shapes and not just the common ones like circle and square but also cubes, ovals etc. They understand different ethnicities, and study various countries and cultures. Both have gotten an excellent foundation from Small World from an academic perspective.
As it pertains to the teachers at Small World. I trust my children in their hands completely.
I highly, highly, recommend this school to anyone with young children or families who are expecting.

I am very pleased with the teaching method in the school. Every child is assigned a book in language and math. They have good programs and it is multi cultural school and the children learn about diferent cultures. Well educated Montessori teachers, very polite and respectful. Will recommend this school if you have young ones.

I enrolled both my children as infant in Small World. My daughter graduated from the kindergarten in this school a year ago and I was amazed when she used to read so nice and write. Now I have enrolled my younger one is 9 months old. This school has great and inviting environment lots of teaching.
Teachers are wonderful and full of love. I recommend this school to parents who are in the area. Visit to see yourself what I mean. Highly recommended.
