My husband and I both have always worked, so full day child care has been our need for our 2 children. We have a 6 year old second grader and a 3 year old. While needing full day care I resorted to the larger Daycare Centers to care for our children. I always felt that they were just “babysitting” my children and that to them my children were just another tuition. I felt like I was settling for the best of the worst, I just didn’t feel the education was there. The quality of the lunches and snacks were poor… and undesirable. I had heard about Centerra Ranch through a friend of mine who highly recommended the school. I was a little hesitant to move my 3 year old son because he doesn’t do well with new people or surroundings. My son has been at Centerra for over 8 months now and he has flourished. He adapted well to his class thanks to Ms Paula, she went above and beyond to help my son feel accepted in his new environment. I love that the classes are small, and each child moves up when they are ready. I feel like my son is getting the best possible education here. I also love that the lunches are catered by the Good to Go company next door. I feel confident he is getting the nutrition he needs. When my 6 year old daughter finished her first grade year at elementary I enrolled her into the new Science camp at Centerra. She has been having the best time learning about science this summer. The camp is small also so there is plenty of one on one time with the camp teacher. She will definitely be back next summer. . I truly feel like the school is an extension of our family they are not the biggest, but the BEST. Read full “Garcia Family”
Our family loves Centerra Ranch Montessori School! How often in life can you say that the promises in the sales pitch were not only met but exceeded? The school promises learning in a socially and emotionally safe environment where the whole school is enthusiastic and supporting of each individual child’s interests and creativity. My daughter absolutely loves school. I love that. They have a deep and truly diverse community that is welcoming, cohesive, curious, thoughtful and respectful. This school is growing children with more than just factual knowledge they are building human beings that have depth-of-character. That is what I REALLY want… for my family. She formed many wonderful friendships – with her teachers and classmates, was nurtured and valued as an individual. If you want your child to be passionate, authentic, committed, well read and educated, this is the place for you. Also would like to mention the cleanliness rules followed by the school and teachers are really nice as you will not see a child with dried runny nose, which makes me appreciate that the teachers and staff take the time to wipe kid’s faces and noses which will in turn help keep our kid’s healthy. They wipe the toys and stuff in the classrooms all the time. My daughter started attending this school in the month of January and I have seen a difference in her personality. Love All the Teachers for their hard work J I will recommend this school. Read full “Bhakti Bavare”
After deciding to move our child out of daycare several months back, we became proud Centerra Ranch Montessori School parents since its inception. Today I can say we are really pleased and enthusiastic about the educational nourishment and caring support that CRMS is bringing to our 4-year-old. Watching him grow through his early years in a diverse and motivational environment, supported by a team of well trained and dedicated teachers, has brought us confidence in the Montessori system and reassurance that this was the perfect choice for our son. We feel our son is eager to learn and return to… school every day, and CRMS has allowed him to set his own learning pace and constantly bring home new skills that we are pleasantly surprised to see. Every aspect of his learning environment –we feel- is cared for and overseen personally by the school’s owner and head, Ms. Angeline, who strives to incorporate new advancements to the school every day and more importantly, cares for our children as her own while bringing the CRMS community closer every day.

When I toured Centerra Ranch, I wasn’t even planning on sending my daughter to preschool. I was simply looking around at schools to get some preliminary information. However, I was so impressed with the facility (the interior and backyard are beautiful and clean), the teachers and the administration that I ended up enrolling her. She has done wonderfully here. She is attached to me and was not so sure about me leaving her when she first started but now when I pick her up, she tells me how much fun she has at school and that she loves her teacher… and her friends. Attending school has also helped her develop socially and her speech really improved. Her teacher is great both academically and emotionally. She is always attentive to my daughter’s needs and my requests. In fact, all the teachers and administrative staff are warm and attentive. I always feel welcome when I come in and more importantly so does my daughter. Read full “Kovacs Family”
I have been able to experience Centerra Ranch Montessori both as a parent and as a teacher. From both perspectives I find myself extremely satisfied. As part of the CRMS faculty my experience is that the owner Angeline Auzenne is very passionate about her school, the children, staff and the parents. And with this she is dedicated to “Centerra Ranch Montessori School”. She is on campus daily to oversee things and to make sure that everyone is successful. As parents we tend to wonder if our child is being taken care of, and if they are receiving the love and attention they… deserve. I feel quite comfortable in saying”I have no worries about my child’s safety, comfort, and academic path”. Mrs. Angeline Auzenne and the assistant director Mrs. Gwendolyn Blackwell make all parent and faculty concerns go away. If they are not behind the front desk, they are in a classroom giving a lesson, love, affection or positive praise to the children. They are making sure that teachers are not in need of anything and are on task with the day at hand. They are constantly straightening up and making sure their babies have an inviting atmosphere throughout the school. They are preparing meetings and trainings to educate the teachers. They work to mentor both faculty and students towards excellence. As a teacher and a parent, what more can you ask for. We have a great foundation, strong management and a great team of teachers who are on the same journey to do whatever it takes to teach, love and care for our students. Read full “Mrs. Lorie Romney”
