I wish that this school was something great, but I was really disappointed by the conversation I had with one of their employees about enrolling my child.  Let's just say that it may say that they take all children regardless of race, religion, disability.  This is just simply not true.  It's sad and disappointing how rude this person was and how opposite she acted in our conversation versus what they tout on their website.  This woman, was short, and just plain snobby.

Our children began their journey at WMS at the height of the pandemic. We did not intend to keep them there long term, but absolutely fell in love with the school, the teachers and the method. This past summer we relocated so that we could continue to send our children there. It has become so much more than school to us- it is a community and a family. Both our 5 and 7 year old thrive in the Montessori environment and look forward to school every day. Whether it is the thrill of a new lesson, or the pride in helping another child after they have mastered one, there is genuine excitement and appreciation for what they are learning. They are supported both academically and emotionally every step of the way. WMS is truly one of a kind.

I am the father of a 6 and 4-year-old who attend Wheaton Montessori.
Wheaton Montessori has had an enriching effect on the greater whole of our home life. The way in which Wheaton Montessori holds the child during the portion of the week they attend school is of immense benefit through the emotional, social, cognitive, motor/physical, and practical domains of development. As opposed to the traditional structures of learning and education within many school systems, the Montessori method allows my children to learn about the ways they learn; to identify means and pathways of approaching their interests; to learn about how to structure their learning; and so much more. I believe this will foster their ability to engage in interest/subject specific ways that are best for them. I trust it will also allow them to remain open to learning throughout their life.
We look forward to our days ahead and take comfort in Wheaton Montessori as our children's educational path.

Our children thrive at Wheaton Montessori school because they are taught to love learning. Their interests drive their work focus. Spending three years with each teacher allows them to build a bond and understand each other to help strengthen weaknesses and emphasize strengths. The multi-age classroom fosters each child's ability to ask for help and give help. Our children are excited to go to school every day. We have been at WMS for 8 years and couldn't ask for more!

Excellent school! I have two sons that attended WMS. This school is an exceptional place where kids learn to be independent thinkers and love learning. I highly recommend this school to anyone looking for a high quality education for their children that also incorporates learning to appreciate others for their uniqueness. My older son attended WMS through Jr. High and is currently a straight A high school student taking honors and AP classes. My younger son still attends WMS and consistently tests well above his grade level. However, what really makes me proud is how my children have learned to be independent, caring, and thoughtful individuals. And I know that WMS has had a hand in that.
