My daughter started at Quest 5 years ago as a 2nd year and is now a 6th year student. The transformation that has taken place in her ability and confidence of her work is truely amazing. She has always had a love for learning even when things don't come easy to her but the teachers and staff always go above and beyond to provide her with the tools to be as successful as she can be. The teachers and staff take great pride in their roles at the school and in their relationships with each and every child. Quest is a warm and loving community and the children love being there. When my daughter is at Quest not only am I confident that she is safe and cared for but that she is also loved and respected as a person who is going to make a difference in this world. Maria Montessori was a genius for her approach to education. Quest Montessori as a whole is genius in how they deliver it!

I take pride on the fact that I am a very involved and educated parent, when it comes to my 5 year old son's education. After coming across with Maria Montessori's outstanding theory on human evolution and how children's education can be adopted to bring forth the talents and wonderful capabilities of each individual I became a commited Montessori follower. This path lead us to Quest, which meets no rival in its exemplary execution of Montessori's standards of education, I would dare to say that they take it a step forward and complement the school's wholistic approach towards learning with a mutlitude of activities and curricula that benefit both the child and the family enormously. Our morning ritual travelling to school involves singing, as my son is so excited and delighted to go to school every morning, at the end of the day when I pick him up he comes home full of stories about exciting discoveries, stories, playground thrills, it's so rewarding to see him growing in the environment that Quest community painstakingly and with great passion and commitment delivers.

Our oldest daughter graduated from Quest Montessori last year (having attended only 8th grade), and our youngest started there in 6th grade this year. We only wish that we had found it earlier.

Prior to attending Quest, our children attended both public and parochial schools. The primary thing that drew us to Quest was the Montessori approach, specifically, teachers as partners in learning, not as adversaries and task masters. This part of the philosophy allows each child to move at their own rate, and even at different rates at different parts of the curriculum. In direct opposition to conventional education, our children now enjoy learning, enjoy school, and push themselves rather than being pushed. The results are happier, more aware, and in the end, better prepared children.

Also, the peer-based approach to learning builds a cohesive classroom, and our experience is that the social environment is more positive and less divided than at the other schools. Quest puts an emphasis on team-building within the glass room, and as this pays dividends throughout the year.

My daughter has attended Quest for two years and our family couldn't be more pleased with the dedication of the teachers and staff at providing an individualized education. She is allowed to move at her own pace academically and is nurtured and appreciated by the staff and her classmates. It is a great school that focuses on the whole student to develop a love of learning in a cooperative environment.
