| Barrie is in upper Silver Spring I think. Great environment up until about 3rd grade. |

| Always check who owns the school. Some shyster lawyer guy owns a lot of the DC area Montessori schools. |

another vote for Manor Montessori. Our little boy loved his time there. |

| Apple Montessori was fantastic for our two kids over the last five years. Lots of options to stay later than 3pm and afternoons have interesting “specials” each day, facilities are very well maintained, outdoors area pretty unique as well. |

| We also had a great experience with Manor Montessori and they have 3 locations. |

| Please avoid Barrie. We pulled our kids out after a year. Too many reasons to list. |

| Our son goes to fernwood and I haven't been thrilled. It is chaotic, the space is not ideal (it's part of a church building) and the teachers are just ok. Also their handling of the distance learning has not been great imo. |

| Evergreen is just "ok." |
