My son has been attending Butler since he was 3 yrs old in the primary. He is now 12 and in the Intermediate program and is loving every minute of it. Butler has been his second home and has enabled his intellect to thrive, has instilled a love of the outdoors and given him maturity and confidence to succeed in whatever he does. Highly recommended to any who are interested in a K-9 Montessori education in Montgomery County.

We have been at Butler for 5 years and have experienced both the Upper Elementary and Intermediate classes. Joining the Butler Community was the best decision we made for our son and his education - we have been extremely pleased with the curriculum, administration, community, and opportunities afforded to him over the years.

Not all pre-school teachers are good. One of them is not skilled to be a Montessori teacher. I had multiple kids in the school and the one in her class was way behind pre-k standard and she was not the only one. At least 5 other kids in her class were not ready to start kindergarten and first grade....

Butler Montessori creates an environment that encourages my child's academic, social, and ethical development. The teachers balance high expectations with deep respect for each student's interests and strengths. My child has learned to set high (but realistic) personal standards and has received the...
