Chesapeake Montessori School

Such a wonderful school! If you are looking for teachings in the true Montessori style, professional, certified teachers, and a loving environment, CMS is the place. The staff is caring, highly trained, and truly love their jobs. Children are encouraged, and cherished here.

Love this school! I search many preschool programs with after school hours and was thrilled to discover CMS after a friend recommended it. The teachers are energized and passionate about what they do. I was instantly impressed when they greeted my boys at eye level, there’s a strong sense of respect on the teacher’s part towards the children. And there’s plenty of structure with predictable routine and natural consequences, so it’s not an environment where children do what they want all day. In fact, it’s such a calm environment where the children are challenged to «make their brain grow.» I couldn’t ask for a better school! So grateful for CMS. If you’re looking for a strong Montessori program, this is definitely one! If looking at other schools, be sure to ask about certifications, any school can call themselves «Montessori.» CMS is actually certified and a training program for teachers in Virginia pursuing their own certification in Montessori, so you know it’s a strong program. Highly recommended!
