Referrals and Observations

• Absolutley amazing atmosphere in the Casa classroom. The teachers are very informative and organized. All children are well behaved. I personally liked the fact that all children get the oppurtunity to work one on one with the teachers. There is lots of potential in this kind of environment for the children. all activities are hand’s on, which makes learning easier and fun. Hadees abdullah, Casa, Nov 30, 2023
• Kids all seem to get along, and are great at putting away their materials. Nathan, Casa, Nov 24, 2023

• I like how the children are engaged in different activities, group+ independent tasks. The best part for me is that they’re given a voice and can choose what they want to do and even how they want to complete or vary the tasks. Love that they have choice. Teachers were engaged in snack time, giving choice again but encouraging healthy options. Natalie, Pre-Casa, Nov 1, 2023
• We would like to send a heartfelt thank you to you, the teachers and all the assistants at PMA. As parents, we try to be mindful of our actions and words with one main objective really in mind and that is to build confidence in our child. We believe confidence comes from development, so if we focus on building confidence, the rest will follow. As painful as it is to admit this, we do not think as parents, with our hectic lifestyles, that we could have achieved, in terms of building confidence, for our son as what PMA has done in such a short amount of time. We have seen him flourish and surpass even our own high expectations in many cases so whatever you are doing, keep doing it!  It is hard for us to provide any constructive feedback, results speak for themselves and our son is blossoming! – Imraz & Shweta Ramani, Pre- Casa, November 2022
• We attended the observation on 23th November, it was amazing. I saw my daughter,learning more than I expected. I truly feel comfortable she’s in the pma. She keeps saying  teacher names and classmate names when she’s home which make us as parents feel so so happy because we know she’s having fun in school. – Ms. Ye. Precasa, November 2022
• This is my 7th (and likely my final!) observation at the PMA and of course I only have the best things to say. Every time I see the classroom, teachers, activities at the PMA and my child’s interactions, engaging and enjoying her time, it just reaffirms my decision to send both my kids to this Montessori. I knew the moment I stepped in 7 years ago with my son and I would recommend this school to any parent in a heart beat. It’s truly a home away from home. Thank you! Ms. Ratanshi, Casa, December 6, 2019.
