Richmond Hill Montessori Private School

” I went to this school since the fourth grade and it made a huge impact on who I am today. Although going here truly had its ups and downs, I still look back at the memories positively. I graduated a little over two years ago, I still think about RHMS. I’m so glad that I was apart of the RHMS community and I’m forever grateful for my RHMS teachers, especially my 8th grade ones (shoutout to Mr Kim, Ms Rafferty, and Ms Q, you guys really made my year). RHMS really left a mark on me and I’m really happy that I spent 5 years going there. “

” RHMS has provided a safe, nurturing and enriched learning environment for my son.  He attended the school from Montessori to Grade 8.  The academic curriculum is accelerated and has provided my son with valuable skills required to be successful in academic endeavours.  There is an amazing focus on hands-on learning, particularly in STEM. The teachers, along with the administration, have been superb in providing continuous support and care.  I can say what sets RHMS apart is the level of dedication they have to their students as the teachers make the effort to understand and become acquainted with each child’s academic strengths and weaknesses. This has allowed my son to flourish and gain confidence in his own abilities, notwithstanding the fact that he also has learning disabilities.  I am amazed that a child could love school as much as he does, and I believe this reflects how important RHMS has become to him.  I really want to sincerely thank the teachers who have shown such dedication and attention to my son- Mr. Kim, Ms. Rafferty, Ms. Shannon, Ms. Coady and Ms. Quidayan along with Ms. Ingravalle ( a Principal who is always available to meet and discuss each child’s development and academic options.) “

” This school is a great place to build a solid educational foundation for a child. The facility is expansive for an elementary school. Resources and facilities are current and up to date including the technology in the classroom (SMART boards). The teachers are compassionate and dedicated, and issues are either resolved in an appropriate timeframe or they are immediately referred to admin if necessary. The program is advanced, but teachers are willing to adjust to their students’ needs. Staff are proactive with student progress, and are very responsive when parents have questions and concerns. “

” My kid has been in RHMS since JK. Here is just a like a big family, all teachers and staffs are very dedicated. We are really appreciated that RHMS provide a positive and progressive environment for the students. Offering our kid very strong academic and character achievement. Especially in academic, RHMS has really strong reputation in the system. That’s why he could have the opportunity to get offer from UCC. This honour is not only belongs to us but also belongs to RHMS. Again, very appreciated everything RHMS did for my kid and our family. “

” RHMS has a rigorous academic curriculum that ensured that both my children were well prepared when it came to to put through applications for continued studies elsewhere. Our family truly appreciates the full hearted attention and dedication that all the faculty gave our children through the years. We will always have fond memories of our time there. “
