Parents' Comments
Parent #1
The only weakness of My Own Montessori, to my mind, is the lack of support for families where both parents work full-time outside of the home. That is, the school day ends at 2:45, sometimes earlier before vacations, and there are lots of holidays above and beyond the federal ones. The school is closed two weeks in June, all of August, for a week at Thanksgiving, two weeks at the end of December, etc. So if you don't have one parent at home or some sort of babysitter/childcare on the side, this school probably won't work for you.
