Business Review
"We have had both of our children at this school for a year, and it has been a wonderful experience. The teachers are warm, caring, and always attentive to the needs of each child. We are grateful for the nurturing environment they provide." - Youngkyeong Seok
"As a parent, finding a school that not only educates your child but helps shape their character is a rare gift — and that’s exactly what we found at Skokie Montessori School. Our daughter has grown in ways we could have only hoped for: she’s become remarkably independent, sociable, and—perhaps most importantly—has developed a deep sense of respect and empathy for others.
The school’s commitment to diversity and inclusion shines through in every aspect of their environment. Children are exposed to different cultures, perspectives, and backgrounds in a way that naturally teaches them acceptance, kindness, and global citizenship. It’s heartwarming to see our daughter come home and talk about her classmates’ traditions or speak up when something doesn’t feel fair or kind. That type of awareness and compassion can't be taught from a textbook.
I truly believe Skokie Montessori School has given our daughter a powerful foundation — not just for academic success, but for life. We are so grateful to be part of this extraordinary place. If you’re looking for a school that nurtures the mind, heart, and spirit, look no further." - Koniarcyzk Family
"We started at Skokie Montessori during COVID and we knew our kids were safe and loved. They thrived socially, emotionally and academically graduating pre-k knowing how to read, write their name, count and even greet in different languages. We’re forever grateful!" - Collins Family
"Skokie Montessori School has been such a gift to our family. Our son started at age 2.5, and swiftly adapted to the environment here. The care the teachers put into understanding each individual child and building a peaceful and orderly atmosphere has made all the difference." - Schrag Family
"Skokie Montessori School has set the foundation for all 4 of my children's education. The school has taught them the fundamentals of research encouraging them to think and problem solve. The individualized attention each child receives enables them to learn at their own pace while challenging them at the same time. The teachers at SMS truly care for the children and really prepare them to succeed in middle school, high school, and college." - Dequilla Family
