Did you have to go on a waiting list for this school? If so, how long was the wait? Thanks!

superb school - we couldn't be happier! my dd started in the 2s and is now in the primary class and she is thriving. fabulous teachers, wonderful parents/families, great admin staff.

the indoor gym facilities in the building are for the other preschool- not apple. agree though that the outdoor facilities here are fantastic.

I cannot say enough good things about Apple Montessori in Bethesda (near Glen Echo). This school is a true-blue Montessori program. The teachers are all uniquely wonderful and devoted to their professions. The school is housed in a building that was formerly a Maryland public school, so it really feels like a "real school" with fabulous playgrounds and indoor gym facilities. The curriculum is progressive and caring. The class size and teacher:student ratios are wonderful. My two-year-old son is loving it there. We switched to Apple from another program that didn't work for him for a variety of reasons, and we could not be happier. I'd be happy to share more with anyone who would like a reference; hhgust@yahoo.com.
