Testimonials

We would like to thank all of the teachers and staff at Sonnet Montessori for all that you have done for our children throughout the years. We have been with Sonnet since it opened at the Prior Lake location. At that time, our oldest daughter entered into the toddler room. She thrived through the years from the toddler room, to the regular classroom and through Kindergarten. Now as our second and youngest child is prepared to leave, she has had the same experience. Through all the hard work of the Sonnet teachers and staff, you have provided our children with a great jumping board as they enter public schools. You have allowed them to thrive and explore what interests them the most and you have taught them math and reading beyond what is “typical” for their age group. You have done this with solid teaching techniques, but more importantly, with love. You have treated our children as family and we think this is your greatest gift. We appreciate all that you have done for our family and Sonnet will always have a special place in our hearts. We would recommend Sonnet Montessori to anyone who is looking for a solid, loving environment for their children prior to them becoming elementary school age. Thank you for all that you do!

The whole DeShaw family would like to thank all of you, especially Ms. Marie & Ms. Shobana, for making the past two years of Parker's educational and personal growth so wonderful! We, as parents, cannot believe the leaps and bounds our son has made while attending class. Ms. Marie has opened our eyes to Parker's potential. For that we will be forever grateful! Although we are excited (and nervous) for Parker's new journey starting at Harriet Bishop as a Kindergartner, we are sad to leave our Sonnet home. The memories will be cherished forever. Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for your time, skills in teaching, nurturing and love for our child. I really feel you care for him about as much as his parents do.

Sonnet Montessori has made a tremendous impact on our daughter, Keira, along with our entire family. Since day one, we felt part of the Sonnet family. The environment is so warm and friendly, and the atmosphere is filled with nurtured learning. When Keira started, we had concerns about preparing her for elementary school. She needed additional structure and support that she was not receiving from her current environment. As soon as she started, we saw positive changes in Keira, intellectually, socially, and emotionally. She was part of the Sonnet family for two years, staying in the same children’s house both years which was instrumental in building consistency and routine. I cannot thank Sonnet enough for molding Keira into the mature and responsible student she is today!!

Sonnet prepared Kylee with a great first step towards her first year in kindergarten. thenOur youngest daughter Kylee Boone had only been attending Sonnet for one school year. Over that year, we noticed dramatic changes in her writing, reading, and speech. Not to mention her quick understanding of Math and Geography. Sonnet has more Thanks Sonnet!

We can’t thank you and your staff enough for preparing our children for the rest of their lives! Cameron is reading at 4th-grade level (he will be in 2nd grade next year) and Shelby is well on her way as well. We recommend your school to everyone we talk to and we will miss bringing them to Sonnet every day. As a mother, it is very hard for me to close this chapter in our lives as our babies are both school age but I know they are as well prepared as they can be for the coming years.

We have been part of Sonnet for 2 years and this has brought remarkable changes in my son. Its been a wonderful experience in spending time with teachers and kids while volunteering also. Sonnet teachers had played a crucial role in developing and grooming my son's skills and overall development. I would say that foundation is very important for a building to be strong and that foundation has been successfully led by Sonnet for [my son]. Thanks to all Sonnet teachers and specially thanking Ms.Marie and Ms. Shobana for their effort, time and dedication.

Our experience with Sonnet School has been nothing but positive. We have 2 children attending that are 4 and 5 years old and the knowledge they gained this year is unparalleled. They have a jump start on reading and sounding words out as well as learning basic math skills. The teachers work so hard to provide individual attention and it truly shows. My children have learned so much about other countries and their traditions as well as how to respect each other and show respect to adults. We have had such a great experience at Sonnet and would recommend them to any parent seeking preschool or kindergarten for their children.

Thanks so much for what you and your staff at Sonnet Montessori have done for the twins over the past two-plus years. Your school is outstanding and you should be very proud of what you and your staff are doing for your students and their families.

Our son has had a wonderful experience with Sonnet. He has learned so much in a short period of time. I am amazed that he can write his name at the age of 3. He has a high interested in the practical life skills along with math, and of course loves being outside or going to the gym. Everything they do at Sonnet there is some type of teaching involved, the children area always learning. All the teachers and staff are genuine. They show a lot of patience, interest and care towards the students. My son loves going to school! Not much more you can say to that!

Sonnet is a place where all kids are welcome. The teachers are warm and friendly and care about each child. They challenge the students and have high expectations for them. Maria has learned so much at Sonnet. She is reading very well and her Sonnet has been such a wonderful place for our daughter to grow and learn. Maria began at Sonnet a shy and sensitive child who sometimes lacked confidence. Sonnet has changed all that for Maria. She is confident and assertive with her learning and with friends. Mathematics and writing skills are excellent. Maria used to hate math, but now she spends a lot of time on the math works. She is definitely ready for all-day kindergarten next year. We have two smaller children at home and there is no doubt in my mind that they will also attend Sonnet. I also recommend Sonnet to all my friends and neighbors.
