“Our family has been a part of the HCMS community since the 2006-2007 school year. One of the best things about HCMS is the family feel on the campus. The teachers are much more than just teachers, it is very evident that they really care about our daughters. Both of our children started in the Toddler program. Our oldest is starting her junior year in high school, and she remains close to her HCMS teachers. Our youngest is starting her final year at HCMS, which is bittersweet.
The Montessori Method lends itself very well to different styles of learning, which in the case of our children was very important as they have very different styles of learning. HCMS allowed them to work at their own pace. Their time at HCMS has prepared them very well, not just for the next chapter in their education, but for life. They learned by example and by practice to become independent thinkers, to resolve conflict, to organize their time, and to care about not just themselves, but also those around them.”

Sending our son and daughter to Hill Country Montessori School (HCMS) was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. At HCMS, our kids had the opportunity to grow both in the classroom and as leaders. HCMS teachers and staff are very invested in each child and both nurture and challenge them to develop to the fullest potential. Now that our children are in high school, it is very obvious to my wife and I that HCMS prepared our children to handle all challenges that come their way. We strongly believe in HCMS and value their partnership in helping to raise our children.
