I came in for a tour and observed different classrooms. It was love at first sight. Both my children started at the toddler level at 1.5 years of age and years later, they continue to grow in an excellent Montessori environment. The features that attracted me the most were the bilingual English/Spanish classroom, the caring well-trained teachers, the carefully planned classroom transitions for new and transitioning students, and the children's sense of independence through real life work (i.e. caring for themselves, their environment, their home responsibilities). My children have grown so much during their time here. This is a place where they are surrounded by samples of grace and courtesy. They have also developed self-confidence, self-awareness, and independence. The school also provides great workshops for parents. I highly recommend this school to anyone looking for a wonderful Montessori learning environment.

Excellent school - from toddler to ninth grade, you will find experienced teachers, a caring and nurturing environment where your child can thrive. Younger kids can attend half day, full day (until 3) and there is aftercare until 5:30 which is invaluable for working parents, along with an early morning drop-off on demand. Best yet, the Montessori curriculum is build on respect for the child and his/her innate interests and talents: it is designed to produce an independent individual who is self-motivated and capable of self-management. I highly recommend this school.
We have three children currently attending the Montessori School of Greater Hartford from primary through the adolescent program and we could not be happier with the care and attention they have received. The montessori philosophy is constructed around the individual needs of each child both academically and developmentally and is implemented by highly trained and loving teachers and staff in an environment that is designed to nurture growth and curiosity. MSGH is more than a school it is a warm, vibrant community that is centered on the values of respect and creating peaceful citizens of the world. I can not recommend it highly enough!!
To see the magic of MSGH in action you have to come for a tour and observe a classroom. Its really hard to describe in a couple of sentences the magic that happens in an authentic Montessori classroom. No matter what level - toddler, primary, elementary, adolescent - these kids feel empowered, enjoy learning and are socially just so well rounded. I never forget the first time I visited and what always stuck in my head was a 5th grader holding the door open for me and looking me straight in the eyes while exchanging a couple of words with me. That is a kid that is not afraid to engage with the world. I really believe that is a testimony not only to the excellent Montessori education our kids receive here at MSGH, but to this unique, caring and loving community where everyone feels at home - students, parents, teachers, staff. If you are looking for a school with the right balance of academics, social/emotional development and letting your kids keep their sense of wonder, this is it.
Great school would go again (Here at Montessori, we are innovators)
