Parents
Our son’s first school experience has blessed us beyond our deepest desires and expectations. He comes home happy, confident and excited … He tells us he is learning science, math, reading, writing … and then he breaks out in song.
From primary to middle school, my son thrives here at FMS. For our whole family, being a part of this enchanting community was definitely the right choice.
Know that what you have provided for our son has established a deep foundation for all future learning. You have made such a difference in both his and our lives.
I love the gardens … They plant strawberries, while at the same time not compromising their academics.
They go through great measures to get the highest quality teachers they can get. The academic level is startling.
The academic opportunities that are ahead for my children are amazing. This school was a gift for my family.
Students
I loved the Shakespeare plays we put on with the entire class. From the teachers who plied me with hundreds of books to the trips to Catalina Island, FMS shaped how I saw the world and how I fit into it.
From the pink tower in primary to dissections in middle school, FMS encourages confidence in yourself in your work.
For the three years I have been here, Foothills has come to be my home.
This school has helped turn me into the individual that I was always meant to be and has nurtured my personality for a brighter future. This school has an amazing aura about it, where teachers and students connect and students become the best of friends.
Every day I look forward to school because I know a day of fun and learning is awaiting me. I am ready to move on to high school because this school has prepared me so well. In 20 years, when I have a job that I enjoy and look forward to everyday, I will look back to my upper elementary and middle school years, and will give thanks for everything I had.
This school has instilled such a thirst for knowledge in me over the past nine years and I am very lucky to have had the amazing opportunity to embark on the Montessori Journey.
I have been at FMS for a very long time now and I think that FMS is way more than just a school. It is about friends, comfort, family and an amazing learning environment. Our school is so unique and definitely sends the kids off in the right direction. I see the graduates come back to visit and they are all so successful — that says a lot!
