Parents' Comments
Parent #1
"Everything I ever learned I learned at Magic Lantern". This sums up my daughters experience at the most fabulous Montessori School in Seattle. Still today, as a 1st grader, she brings up on a daily basis tid bits she learned as a preschooler at this school. My son is registered to begin in September and I couldn't be more excited. Magic Lantern has opened up a whole new world for us of familes and friends in the community who all encourage the love of learning. An A++ rating!
Parent #2
This is a full day year round program. All healthy, organic, vegetarian meals and snacks are not only provided, but cooked by the children. The cooking instruction is superb. The cooking teacher is French. Diversity is highly regarded. The arts program is fantastic. The Montessori lead teacher is a gem.
