We're in Hamilton Park Montessori and all's going well. It's our 3rd year there and mini me's in kindergarten. Many families pull their kids out when a second child arrives on the scene because, let's face it, the cost of tuition x2 + property taxes = unbearable.

The school was established 10 years ago and has accomplished much: full time literacy/speech/music/gym instructors, Stem program, a sports team, talk of a theater group, after school programs, etc.

With a shortage of daycare in the area - they've converted the kid's kitchen into a classroom for the little ones and split another classroom in half to accommodate another class of 3, 4 and 5 year olds. So a high concentration of little people and fewer older students.

Wondering what your experiences have been like in some of the other schools that go through 8th grade, i.e. Stevens, The French Academy, etc. There are also some newer schools in the area and I'd be interested to learn of positive / negative feedback from any of those.

Thanks in advance.
