Crystal Lake Montessori School, Woodstock | Fees, Rankings, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

We have 2 boys that attend CLMS in Toddler and Early Childhood. Even though this is our first year here we absolutely love it and consider it our family not just a typical school. Since starting CLMS, my son has grown a love for learning, for his teachers and his classmates words cannot describe. He has also developed initiative, independence, leadership skills, creativity and a sense of self confidence in himself through his accomplishments. Teachers go the extra mile to incorporate the interests of the kids into the curriculum as well as have work plans for them to keep them challenged, engaged and develop a love for learning. CLMS practices the true Montessori Method and is accredited. The communication CLMS provides is outstanding. I am always informed and up to date on activities and progress of my kids in addition to the parent teacher conferences. CLMS treats students, staff and families with the utmost respect and as individuals. CLMS has provided an amazing community and support system of people that truly care about the students and their development and successes, families and each other. We love our school and know you will too!

We have nothing but great things to say about CLMS after moving here a year ago from Chicago. Teachers and staff are very responsive to individual student needs. Our children immediately felt at home here and are happy to go to school every day. Their learning over the last year has been tremendous—and not just educational, but emotional and social as well. We are also so pleased that CLMS has done real mitigation to the school building to make it safer for all the children and staff–from enhanced cleaning, improved ventilation, and additional education on hygiene. We are completely confident sending our kids to CLMS and are looking forward to the new school year!
