Amarillo Montessori Academy

My three children all attended the Amarillo Montessori Academy and all are honor students who got a great foundation from the school. It is sad that the Amarillo Montessori Academy is often confused with the Amarillo Montessori Day School which is not even affiliated with the Academy! The Academy has Montessori certified teachers in most of the classrooms with very low student to teacher ratios. We felt like a part of a family when we were there and my kids still have a relationship with some of their teachers and kids they met in pre-school. It is hard to trust someone with your children every day and the best part about AMA was that I could trust them with my most precious children.If you are looking for quality care with outstanding education drop in for a tour and don't take anyone else's word for it. more

Let's call this place what it is, a daycare center. I was not very impressed with Amarillo Montessori. From the name you could infer that they placed an emphasis on teaching and learning and it just wasn't there for me. I took one of our children for a while, and I also had a niece go there. Not only did they really not do much "teaching", but they really weren't a very good daycare either. One time I went to pick up my niece and they told me that she hadn't come that day. Turns out she had been in another "classroom" all day and no one ever noticed. This place doesn't score big with me, and we did give it a fighting chance. more
