  I am so grateful to have found this Montessori program for my sons. I drop them off everyday assured they are learning in a calm environment conducive to learning. Additionally, the teachers taylor their teaching style to each students learning needs. I am impressed with how my children have grown not only academically, but socio-emotionally as well. The teachers model and teach respect, kindness, compassion, gratitude.. just to name a few. I also appreciate that you can choose a half or full day program, as well as a four or five day week. This school is a hidden gem.

  Although Royal Blue Heron Montessori Academy is small in size, its faculty and teaching methods definitely surpass those of larger and more famous institutions. Mr. Fritz not only provides children with a solid academic foundation but also fosters their personal growth, inspiring confidence, self-discipline, self-awareness, and self-esteem. My son is now 16 years old, in grade 11, and is a straight-A student. He started attending Royal Blue Heron Montessori when he was 2.5 years old. I am extremely grateful for the unconditional love, care, kindness, and patience of Mr. Fritz and Ms. Patricia. They have both been my child’s first mentors. Without Mr. Fritz’s inspiration, my son would not be who he is today.
