Rocky Mountain Montessori Academy

Please read this if you are considering elementary classroom at RMMA! My child was going on her 2^nd year at this school. The pre primary class is amazing. Switching to the elementary side was a different story. The director Nancy should not be in charge of children. She hired her daughter to help in the elementary side and she is just as bad. I walked in one day early to pick up my child to see Her daughter texting with one hand and holding my daughters arm with the other on the floor so she wouldnt get up. I came in last week to see Nancy putting my daughter in a baby room while yelling «if your going to act like a baby you will be treated like a baby». Her daughter also put my child in a closet/​pantry for a «sensory break» and admitted to doing that when i asked why my child came home saying this. When the school appeared great we donated $ 5000 to fix some of the fence that needed replaced. Nancy asked if they coulf fix the windows instead because they dont open. We were ok with that but a year later nothing was fixed or upgraded. She kept our donation for
herself. Nancy is constantly yelling at these kids, taking away much needed recess and degrading the kids with her constant yelling and dirty looks. Its far from a true montessori school philosophy. We had felt we had seen enough and pulled our child out before it got worse. Very sad because we really loved the Montessori concept.
