Guelph Montessori School

” Our son started Montessori at 15 months old, and now at 4 years old, we couldn’t be more grateful for the experience. The three-year cycle, especially the JK/SK years, has been incredible—bringing together everything he’s learned and allowing him to truly excel academically and socially. The dedicated educators have fostered his independence, confidence, and love for learning, helping him grow in both academics and practical life skills. We’ve watched him flourish in a nurturing and structured environment, forming meaningful friendships along the way. We highly recommend this exceptional program to any family looking for a strong, child-centered foundation. Montessori has set our son up for success, and we are so thankful! “

” Our child had a terrible time here. In the middle of trying to sort this out, the principal/owner Amir made it clear that this was a ‘business’ first, and that he cared very little about the experience of the children. We removed our child and thankfully, they are thriving at the other Montessori (shout out to Planted Seed!) and seem to be bouncing back. “

” Our daughter attended the GMS toddler program for the second half of the 23-24 school year, and absolutely thrived in the Montessori environment, with the support of incredible and caring teachers. Amir (the principal) was very attentive, flexible, understanding, and provided great service to us throughout. I’d highly recommend GMS! “

” We are loving the Montessori Elementary program at GMS. My child is thriving – both academically and socially – in this respectful, confidence-building, inclusive and diverse environment. Dr. Maria Montessori really hit the nail on the head when she developed her education program/philosophy! I can’t say enough good things about the elementary teachers – they obviously love what they do and my child adores them. The school community is small but mighty – we feel right at home here. The administration cares deeply about the children, their families, and providing a well-rounded, true Montessori learning environment. We highly recommend GMS! “

” Our boys have been attending the school since the Toddler Program (daycare) and we were so impressed with the teachers and the Montessori method that we decided to keep them there into the Elementary years (kindergarten and Grade 2). We love the community of parents and events that the school organizes. The Winter Concert is a highlight and very impressive! We also really appreciate the small class sizes and range of activities/subjects…yoga, music and French. Plus the class trips are great. We always feel as though the teachers go above and beyond plus they are very approachable and accessible to connect with for any of our questions/concerns. Highly recommend this school! “
