t	tom lee on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I have been a parent of 2 students at this school. The administration is so organized and efficient. The staff are hard workers, caring and very knowledgable. there are 3 progress reports per year and conferences and observations. The amount my children have learned over the time here is remarkable. i would recommend it to anyone.
m	michael zappin on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My child has attended 2 of the locations for this school. the transfer was seamless and the teachers at both locations were supportive. We also enrolled in the July and August session. I have only great things to say about this school. The administrator provides scholastic monthly, a newsletter monthly, lots of email communication, there are report cards every few months, parent teacher conferences and observations. This is a top notch school! We were lucky to enroll here.
d	david bryant on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Pros: -Extremely professional and well organized teachers (especially Miss Julia who is very well educated and genuinely cares about the kids' education) -Teachers are frequently engaged and involved with parents (monthly newsletters which are actually helpful/informative), field trips, parent teacher conferences, progress reports, etc. -Snacks provided (you WILL appreciate this) -3 hours instead of 2.5 hours like many -This is the 'cool and trendy' part of main with lots of excellent restaurants and coffee to go to during school/after school, not the scary and dodgy part of main :) -Christmas/spring breaks are short :) Cons -School is on the smaller side and pretty urban Overall the main location is excellent. The teachers might strike you as reserved but they're fabulous. This is for the main branch-we've gone to summer school at the kits branch. It's not nearly as well organized.
B	B Mackenzie on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I've sent two of my kids to Reach For The Stars Montessori on Main St, and would recommend this school to any parent looking. The teachers are knowledgeable, friendly, and very well organized. They have great systems in place to keep all families and kids on the same page, as well as a great layout in class to support kids on their individual learning journey. I was able to see the school pre-COVID and now during COVID, and they've been at the forefront of health and safety for the kids, and families as well. Would definitely recommend this Montessori.
A	Ashley Yost on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My child loves going to reach for the stars. It is a great school that I am proud to say we are apart of. My child learns so much and truly loves her teachers. We recommend this school.They are highly organized, creative and the teachers are kind and easy to communicate with.
j	jaja sy on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I went to their Mt. Pleasant in Main st. Vancouver and I felt unwelcomed, and was given a cold treatment by one of the teacher (Ilenia) the other one she was ok but also cold shoulder. I was given a tour but even before i was done with all my questions she already open the door for us to leave. I would not let my child be on that environment, and be with a teacher with that kind of attitude. Look for other preschool... let your child enjoy being a child ....
D	Deborah Syiemlieh MacKay on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I can't tell you enough how great this school is. My child went to this school only for 3 months from March 2021 to June 2021. He has learned so much in a span of 3 months. The program was so well structured and so organized. Ms Julia was so good and my son adores her. I was so impressed with how good she was with the children. Not only did my son learn French and Spanish in that 3 month period he also came home and showed us all the yoga poses. I was in awe with how much they do in just 2.5 hours a day. I wish their hours could be longer or at the very least half day (9 to 12:30). It takes me 15 mins by car to get there so for 2 and half hours it is not enough with the back and forth driving. I feel that if the hours would be longer, I would have kept my child there until he would have started kindergarten. Overall, I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a great school for their child. This is by far one of the best Montessori schools for little kids in Vancouver.
S	Steve Nipius on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I could not be happier with this school and would recommend it to anyone. My wife and I had originally wanted to get into a City of Vancouver pre-school but cannot be more happy that we could not as it had filled up. We had expected this would be more like a daycare for older kids but each day continue to be surprised when our daughter comes home telling us about the solar system, animals, and just funny facts that she has learned in school. She comes home with wonderful art, notes from the teachers with updates, new books each day to read at night. They teach them songs about the world, planets, etc and she comes home remembering them each day. My daughter LOVES the structure they provide as well, very consistent atmosphere so she knows what to expect each day. Sanitization when entering, waiting for parents to arrive in certain fashions, arrival procedures, teaches them about steps in the real world. They are very COVID safe and have even adapted further to Omicron by having each child at their own table. We wish we could have kept her in here for kindergarten as well. From day 1 my daughter has only had excitement to go to school, not once in 4 months has she ever said she did not want to go to school (that alone says how good they are to the kids). There is not one single negative thing I have to say about them. Anyone who says anything negative about this school is just wrong in my opinion.
