Mi Casita Montessori has been the perfect place for our son to grow and learn! We love the bilingual education and Montessori method that teaches kids such independence and real life skills. The administration and teachers are caring and experts. Our son loves it here!

Mi Casita has been a true joy! We were part of the community from 2017-2022, and we are extremely grateful for the staff who poured into our boys while they attended. Growing up Montessori has been beneficial for their growth and giving them an advantage to life. Helping them learn to be independent and helped them to do it themselves. What the hand does the mind remembers. The Spanish immersion was a bonus to the education and love they receive during their time at Mi Casita. One of the teachers recognized speech delay in my 2yr old, and suggested speech therapy early on. Thank goodness we received the help he needed to continue to shine, and give him the confidence to learn. Thank you for being an amazing community for my family. God Bless!

Our son attended Mi Casita for 2 years and just graduated kindergarten. Mi Casita is much more than a Spanish immersion school, its a loving, caring, nurturing community where teachers and parents join forces to help children grow and flourish. Genuinely focused on children's success. Truly follow and practice the Montessori principles of helping children doing things themselves and staying up to date through continuous education. The level of cleanliness is unparalleled. We have lived internationally and Mi Casita surpasses all other schools we had access to. Our child has never been sick while there. They are true proponents of healthy living, clean, organic eating habits, prepare healthy snacks, make their own orange juice, and sometimes soups with organic ingredients. it's a family owned and run school and it truly feels like dropping off your child with family. The teachers really walk the talk of giving your child an advantage for life. They instill the motto "homework is the work of home" at the young age of their students. The Spanish immersion is a true advantage that cannot be found in many schools. Another very convenient aspect is that they bring extra curricular activities to the school with choices such as fitness, dance, karate. Judging by the long tenure of staff with the school, it is evident that they feel valued and value the school. The level of professionalism and passion for what they do is evident. They attend continuous education, maintain an open communication with the families, organize many events where they engage the community: police department, waste and recycling department visits, dental practices and parents presenting heritage, customs, places, professions and many other learning opportunities that contribute to a whole education, not just the basics, the academics. Children observe the cycle of life in nature through following caterpillars to the butterfly stages, at the cost of losing plants that get replenished during the Arbor Day event where children plant and garden. A bird is nesting in the walls of Mi Casita and Coco and Mocha, the guinea pigs, are happy there. We were happy to travel 23 miles each way two times a day for our son to attend Mi Casita. Mi Casita has instilled the core values in our child and contributed majorly to raising a wholesome human being, with respect, love, nurturing, knowledge and passion.

Truly a life changing experience for your kids AND parents. Both our kids know basic Spanish and have learned life lessons that they will carry on forever! This is more than a school, it is a community of staff and parents training children for life. We are so grateful for everything this place has done for our family! Highly recommend!

We enrolled our son in the summer program and he really enjoyed it. He came home each afternoon with a report of the interesting and fun activities he participated in. Everything is hands on and interactive. He loved his teachers and the other children. It truly is a great school.

My daughter had a wonderful experience at Micassita Montessori School for three years. The perfect early childhood experience! Six years later my daughter still says she wishes it went up to Middle School! It’s a family run business and no detail is missed, because they care.

My kids started their school career at Mi Casita and still remember it fondly as do I. Montessori is amazing. Building on a foundation of respect and learning as natural, the method teaches children that they can do for themselves through practice and refining. Montessori, however, has to be done right in order to be effective and at Mi Casita, they do it right. Tirelessly setting the environment each morning and constantly tweaking it as the years go by toward perfection is the Mi Casita difference. They seek out staff who can be Montessori (not an easy task given every adult in a child's life is a part of his environment) and train them well. I now have two intelligent, independent problem solvers who, at 14 and 16 years of age, can do more than most adults in this world and who were, at preschool age, setting and clearing the table for dinner, dressing themselves and reading/writing in 2 languages. My high schooler's teachers were surprised and amazed at his level of independence, reading level and writing level and are often slightly annoyed at how he's always finding better ways to do what they assign. We owe this not only to Montessori, but to Montessori done right at Mi Casita. The staff is highly patient and models appropriate behaviors for the students. I never saw any of my children's teachers (Sra Magaly, Sra Mayra, Sra Sonya) or the administrator (Sra Angelica) lose temper, which is saying a lot given my oldest is highly ADHD and can be a handful. Highly recommend this school to anyone with children toddler through Kindergarden.

We loved Mi Casita. Both of my children went there for 5 years. They are bilingual kids and very happy. My kids love Sra. Mayra and everybody else in the school. Sra Norma and Sra Carolina were amazing with my children and Sra Sonya as well. Their Montessori training is very intense. I went to observe very often and I loved what I saw!
