MONTESSORI REGGIO ACADEMY

I recently had the privilege of working at Montessori Reggio Academy, and I can confidently say that it is hands down the best place to work. From the moment I stepped foot into the Academy, I was greeted with warmth and positivity, and it only got better from there.

The Academy's commitment to the Montessori and Reggio Emilia philosophies is truly remarkable. The leadership team and staff are not only incredibly knowledgeable but also deeply passionate about providing an exceptional educational experience for every child. This dedication to excellence is evident in every aspect of the Academy's operations, making it a joy to be a part of.

One of the things I appreciate most about working at Montessori Reggio Academy is the supportive and collaborative work environment. The staff members are like a close-knit family, always ready to lend a helping hand or share innovative ideas. The sense of camaraderie and teamwork is truly infectious, and it creates a positive and uplifting atmosphere that makes coming to work every day an absolute delight.

Moreover, the Academy places great emphasis on professional growth and development. They provide ample opportunities for continuous learning, whether through workshops, conferences, or in-house training sessions. This commitment to enhancing skills and knowledge not only benefits the staff but also translates into an enriched learning experience for the children in our care.

The physical environment at Montessori Reggio Academy is also worth mentioning. The classrooms are thoughtfully designed, with beautiful and inviting materials that encourage exploration and creativity. The Academy also boasts expansive outdoor spaces where children can freely engage with nature, fostering a love for the environment from a young age.

Lastly, I must commend the Academy's dedication to maintaining a healthy work-life balance. They understand the importance of self-care and offer flexible scheduling options, ensuring that their staff has time to recharge and pursue personal interests outside of work.

In conclusion, Montessori Reggio Academy is a truly exceptional place to work. The commitment to educational excellence, the supportive work environment, and the emphasis on personal and professional growth make it stand out among other institutions. If you're looking for a workplace that genuinely cares about its staff and provides an enriching environment for children, I wholeheartedly recommend Montessori Reggio Academy.

A typical day for myself is opening the Lower
Elementary School & making sure our teachers have all supplies they need for the day along with checking each classroom assuring they are ready for the children. That leads me to make 
sure of correct snacks, water & other things
that must be ready also. Safety is first & all doors
stay locked , camera's in every room & a strict check in  & out procedure. I greet all the children
at the front door with their parents. This is my
special time to make sure parents questions are
answered & that they feel good & reassured when they drop off their children at MRA.  I
make sure each child is taken to their room & 
periodically visit the classroom in the mornings
to see if the teacher needs anything from the 
front desk. My Admin position has taught me
patience , especially when phone calls ,door bells , class counts, teachers needs, children
going out to recess & making sure lunches
are passed correctly, etc. go smoothly. The
most enjoyable part of my job is interacting
with all the parents & children because of
my relationships with them that I have developed over time. When you  see a parent 
smile & they like to talk with you & when the
kid's  smile & enjoy talking with you also ( you can see their sincerity on their little faces) it
makes your job rewarding & enjoyable.
I truly enjoy working at MRA !








Documentation for the company is poor, considering it’s a private school, a lot of communication was lost in translation or miscommunicated in writing. I was in training for a week, despite HR having no record of the extension. I received a survey on performance 1 1/2 weeks after getting out of training- which was 3 weeks earlier than the promised survey. Essentially I was set up to fail because I didn’t meet, MRA yet these standards weren’t even met by experienced  staff and faced no repercussion . When I started I never got the supplies I requested to conduct a proper class session, and was also given a room that had not been cleaned out by the old teacher. Despite   the short comings of other experienced staff- it somehow became no one else’s fault but mine and I should have instinctually known how to fix these issues. And there was no room for error or warning, despite being in a  new and unique teaching environment. I was also told “you would not receive a lunch break because you will be eating lunch before work”, and yet of course that became miscommunication after mentioning the issue. I’ve also noticed a lot of 
   favoritism with nepotism . And the position was felt more of a janitorial position rather than a teaching position, as I would teach then have to clean various other classrooms. And overall wasn’t the immersive art teaching experience I thought it would be.

A typical day at Montessori Reggio Academy is full and fast-paced, but in the best way. There’s always something to do, whether it’s helping teachers, talking with parents, or keeping things running smoothly. I’ve learned so much about leadership, time management, and what it means to be truly accountable.
The management team sets high standards but is also fair and supportive. You always know what’s expected, and there’s a real sense of teamwork across the campuses. The culture here is positive, professional, and focused on doing what’s best for the children and families.
The hardest part of the job is juggling many priorities at once—but the most rewarding part is seeing how much of a difference we make every day. It’s a place where hard work is noticed, growth is encouraged, and you genuinely feel proud to be part of the team.

A typical day at Montessori Reggio Academy is busy, purposeful, and full of learning moments with the children. Over the years, I’ve learned so much about Montessori philosophy, classroom leadership, and working as part of a supportive team.

Management is approachable and genuinely cares about staff success. They check in regularly, offer guidance, and provide the tools we need to thrive. The workplace culture is warm, collaborative, and focused on both student growth and staff development.

The hardest part of the job can be balancing the many responsibilities that come with working in a dynamic classroom, but the support from leadership makes it manageable. The most enjoyable part is watching the children grow and knowing I play a meaningful role in their learning journey. It’s incredibly rewarding.

A typical day at work consisted of class counts, classroom observations, taking phone calls, and producing tour packets.
I learned time management, and efficiency and developed a work culture. 
Management was enjoyable during my time at the company but was saddened to see it clear out so quickly after undergoing company changes.
Workplace culture was great during the time period I worked there, families were receptive to upcoming adjustments, and the faculty pooled together when it was necessary. 
The hardest part of the job was the turnover of teachers and administration.
The most enjoyable part of the job was the connections and friendships made as a direct impact of working closely together.

It’s a great place to work at for those who value innovation and a collaborative environment.The work environment is dynamic and there’s a strong emphasis on teamwork. The management and admin team is very supportive and they are always open to feedback. The school offers regular workshops and supports employees in getting their certifications done.
All the employees get regular, constructive feedback that helps us grow professionally.   I’ve seen a clear path for career progression.
I would recommend this school to anyone seeking growth opportunities and a healthy work-life balance.

It is a fun place to work. I come in happy because I am coming to meet happy and friendly co workers and administrative staff. The children are so at home with the school that most of them are happy to come to school. It is fun and interesting watching these happy children as they explore in their very prepared environment using their five senses. The CEO appreciate s her workers, children and parents that she goes all out to make us happy. Like she would say “ we work hard and party hard. She give’s rewards, award, bonuses just name it
