My family has been attending Creo for 2 1/2 years. We love this school! All of the teachers and staff are phenomenal! My son is in second grade now and he still runs up to give hugs to his kindergarten teachers every time he sees them!
Both of my kids are able to have their different needs met at Creo, thanks to Montessori mullti-aged classrooms. My older son is slightly ahead and really benefits from being in a classroom with kids that are older than him. My younger son is slightly behind and he benefits from being with students who are younger than him. He is gaining confidence from being a leader and good role-model to the younger students. He is also gaining more confidence in his reading skills, but doesn't feel "behind" because he surrounded by other kids who are at his level.
It's amazing how much real-life learning happens at Creo. My 2nd grader is also doing a research project on snakes and has gone to the library to check-out books, contacted the herpetology society in Phoenix (both by phone and email) and has arranged a trip to visit them after the new year. He will soon be presenting his research to the class and is he beyond excited about it. So many great life skills he is learning from this one project!
Most important for me though, is that both of my children are thriving and love to learn. We are so happy we found Creo!
