  Our daughter joined BCMS just before she turned three and will be continuing on. The teachers and staff are truly exceptional. She loves the school, her teachers, and her friends. We have seen her grow so much since starting. We have also met some wonderful families through the warm and welcoming community the school fosters. We are so grateful to be part of it.

  We have been extremely happy with the quality of care and education that we’ve gotten at Big City. We particularly love the mixed age classes and the wonderful teachers and special programs (Spanish, music, yoga). The family community has been wonderful and our child has thrived here and is well prepared heading into Kindergarten this year. We’re looking forward to sending our second child here this fall.

  We loved our 2 years at Big City when our daughter was 3-5 years old. Wonderful teachers, great enrichment classes (yoga, music, and art every week) with outside teachers, on site field trips--what a dream! School is supportive and the other families are great as well. Highly recommend.

  In addition to all real Yelp reviews I can add that after dealing with Big City Montessori our family became the victim of the money extortion scheme. Our son was terminated from the school after a little over a month. After refusing to work with the child the school management decided that it's easier for them just to get rid of our son. The professionalism of this organization was questioned in many previous reviews. I'd like to write about something else - the money extortion using the system loophole. We ended up paying close to $5K for one month of service. We paid $2K deposit and fees, $3.8K for the next 2 months. After termination we were refunded only $780. It appears that even though our child was kicked out of the school we were charged the additional 15 days for the gracious period. Conducting business in such manner should be simply illegal. Beware of these scumbags. UPDATE: After we made some noise the BCM management decided to return us 1.4K of the 'non-refundable' deposit. We still ended up paying around 3.5K for one month. Overall the experience with this organization was negative.
