This school is outstanding! I am continually amazed at what my son is learning. He did not know his numbers and letters before starting and is now reading and doing addition. I think the staff is great and the head of school has been a great help with her parenting advice when I needed it. You would be crazy to miss out on sending your child here!
I can't say enough great things about TMS. We decided to enroll my son there when he turned 2 and he started in the toddler program. I felt he needed social interaction and wanted his langage to further develop. Within weeks he was speaking so much more, super confident, loving his school days. He was in the Toddler 1 class and I cant say enough about Ms. Michelle and Ms. Diana. Ms. Michelle is a gifted, highly educated teacher who brings a great deal of montessori expertise to the classroom. Ms. Diana is one of the most nurturing and loving people I have ever met. She loves our son like he is her own and he is super attached to her. Our son recently moved into the Primary and he is adjusting well thanks to Ms. Peggy his wonderful new teacher. I can't wait to see how he grows in primary. If you are looking for a true montessori, with highly skilled teachers and people who have a passion for children- this is your place. We really couldn't be happier. We plan to keep our son at TMS through Elem.
We are also very pleased with teaching methods of Montessori system and all the extra-curricular activities kids are involved in at TMS. There are tremendous learning opportunities and we are certain that our daughter will continue to learn more, grow, and benefit from this institution in the years to come.

Our daughter Zoe has been attending The Montessori School at Star Creek (TMS) for over 2 years. She started in Pre-K and now is in Elementary grade. We moved her to TMS after just a couple of months in a different Montessori school. The difference between the level of education and learning opportunities is enormous and clearly noticeable. We are extremely pleased with the entire staff and above all her teacher for the first 22 months Ms. Kanwal. She has helped Zoe build a solid foundation, learn how to interact with kids of different age groups, excel in her work at school at a very very young age. We believe that this is achieved by providing each child with individual attention and tailoring the teaching to fit their level and needs. We cannot be more pleased with the entire experience and the level of attention each individual child gets at this school.
I had seen some negative reviews on Google reviews about this school some time ago. I asked the director about them when we came in for a tour. She indicated that a disgruntled worker had left and complained to the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services. I asked if she had a copy of that report. She said that they are only required by the state to keep a year of reports, but that she would look for them. She did provide the original investigation report and the follow up report. However, the follow up report was missing pages and was cutoff in one section. I did not ask her about them. Instead, I just jotted down the report numbers so that I could ask the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services for the full reports. What was more odd was that, though we were told that they have plenty of room before we came in, the Director repeatedly mentioned that she would need to check if they had room after I asked for the reports. The next day, they told us that our daughter's age group had no more room. Later on that day, a friend of ours called to verify this information since she also was interested in having her son who was the same age attend this school. They told her that there was plenty of room. If you are the type of parent that likes to be stay informed about the complaints to the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services that occur at the school, you may not get along with the director.
Our son had Ms. Veena for preschool for 1.5 yrs. She was WONDERFUL! I cannot say enough about her caring and attention to detail. This was our son's 1st time staying away from home, but he instantly bonded with Ms. Veena and she made him feel safe. He blossomed under her tutelage, as well, learning to read short books and basic math skills. He has transitioned into Kinder now without any difficulty. We were also pleased with the school overall. Staff and events were well organized and there was good communication. We have even just started our youngest in the toddler program 2 days per week.
Oh and I will say to all the allegations about possible misconduct at the school several years ago. I did a great deal of research on this and spoke and obtained records from the state dept and based on what I read the claim really didnt have any merit. It did appear to be someone just upset, making some false claims they were unable to back up.
