Dear Ms. Perrah

We want to take this opportunity to let other parents know about our son and daughter's personal and educational experiences while attending Montessori Children’s House (MCH). We are pleased to recommend other families to this excellent school.

As you know we still have our third child at Montessori Children’s House. The children’s names and dates of attendance at MCH are:

Elliot Burns, he attended MCH from 1997 - 2001
Ariel Burns, she attended MCH from 1999-2003
Daniel Burns, he attends MCH since 2002 – Present

• While at MCH, Elliot developed a love for science, his math skills blossomed with a positive attitude; he delights in taking on learning challenges.
• He developed the discipline to do his homework on a regular basis.
• He continues to express an eagerness to explore the world around him.
• Elliot has received several science and citizen awards and has scored very high on the SAT test since he transferred from MCH to public school.
• Ariel also developed good homework habits and creative, theatrical talent as well.
• She also has received several reading & citizen awards.
• Thanks to MCH, all three of our children know the importance of respect for other people.
• Daniel is still at MCH and we know he will develop these excellent school habits like the other two children have. If we did not truly believe this, Daniel would be in the same school as our other two children.

My husband and I are grateful to MCH. Although it has not been easy for our family financially, we made the choice to hold our children’s education as our top priority. We want them to have a solid educational foundation and a love of learning that will serve them for the rest of their lives. MCH has been a great support in the commitment.
