Great school network My daughter has been in Guidepost since 6 mo. She is now 3.5 and super independent. Sometimes I feel like she is “too independent” (*face palm smiley*). She has attended multiple locations during her tenure at Guidepost and every transition was unexpectedly easy for our a bit shy and reserved child. I believe this could be a very important aspect to families that move around a lot. All locations are beautiful AND look the same AND teachers approach children in the similar manner. This provides so needed reassurance to the child in the tumultuous times of the move. Whether it is a geographical move or transition up to a different program.

RUN AWAY AS FAST AS YOU CAN We enrolled our daughters at this school and had the following experiences: Jaime Roush - head of the school - Sent an email to her "leadership" team attempting to label our daughters with a clinical diagnosis which we NEVER remotely alluding to being factual. When we asked her to provide us with a copy of whatever assessments she had conducted on our children, as well as the contact information for the licensed clinician which conducted aforementioned assessment, Jaime feigned complete and absolute ignorance before running to her "legal team" crying about how she was afraid of the big black man because he made her friend Lori Nelson Roulette cry. Once Lori was held accountable for her severe incompetence, unethical behavior, and borderline child abuse tendencies, she all of sudden "feared for the safety of her life" and could no longer have our children in her school. I wonder if Jaime/Lori would have utilized dog whistle covert racial phrases if I were white. AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COST

So happy to have my daughter at Guidepost! My daughter has been at Guidepost for almost 2 years and she is thriving. Her Head of School is fantastic and we love seeing the progress that she has made, both academically and socially, during her time at Guidepost. It has been a joy to see her curiosity and sense of independence blossom, and it's clear that she is developing a true love of learning under the school's guidance. As a working parent, I also really appreciate the extended 7am-6pm hours.

We have absolutely loved this school We have absolutely loved this school, the teachers and the staff who run the school. Our son does the Spanish immersion class with Ms Gaby, Ms Myrna and Ms Sol. They are three excellent teachers with wonderful communication, they are fun, approachable, friendly and warm. The classroom is run beautifully and we always feel welcomed. Since going to Guidepost our son (an only child) has learnt to do SO much for himself. He puts on his shoes, gets dressed, clears his plate. It has made him value his independence and given him new levels of confidence as an individual. He has made some very good friends with the other students and I believe the school does a really good job of fostering friendships. We have loved the out of hours activities and the birthday parties. And seeing my son's understanding of Spanish grow has been very exciting. We've also met a lot of the other parents who are very friendly and this has been really great. It's a great school and lovely community. It's been perfect for our family.

Discrimination as corporate policy Sadly, the other reviews on this platform echo my family's experience with Guidepost Montessori in a deeply uncomfortable way. The only difference is the location, we were in Brooklyn, but the corporate policy seems clear enough. The same pattern of discrimination, the same language and lack of reasonable accommodations for children with disabilities. Shameful.
