“Bluebonnet is a magical place. Ms. Shah is an amazing, incredibly gifted and passionate teacher. She really motivates the children in her elementary class to learn and to be challenged, all the while keeping them excited about being at school each day. When your 6-year-old says that he wants to stay with Ms. Shah until he goes to college that speaks volumes about her ability to connect with students. The team of teachers that Ms. Silvia has assembled at Bluebonnet is outstanding. My daughter adores Ms. Silvia and Ms. Terry. Both of my children go to school smiling and come home happy – what more can a parent ask for?”

“I remember my own Montessori education fondly: I remember the enthusiasm of my teachers and how much I loved to learn new things. My Montessori education, ranging from pre-K through sixth grade, still ranks in my mind as one of the happiest times of my childhood. Walking into Miss Silvia's Bluebonnet Montessori classrooms brought back all of these memories at a rapid pace: I recognized everything; from the unique teaching materials to the classroom configuration. While this was very comforting, the real surprise came when I listened to Miss Silvia talk about her school. Her passion and vision shone through clearly; she showed a deep understanding of Maria Montessori's teaching philosophy and spoke so enthusiastically about the teaching methods and materials, that I remember smiling broadly throughout her entire presentation. There was no doubt that we had found the right school for our children. Our respect and admiration for Bluebonnet Montessori has only increased over time. In amazement, we have watched our children experience the joy of learning and grow into inquisitive, critical thinkers who seem to have developed an insatiable thirst for knowledge. The Bluebonnet Montessori program never ceases to impress us, with an ever broadening spectrum of teaching techniques and activities improving the curriculum every year. We feel very privileged to be a member of the Bluebonnet Montessori family. We are grateful to Miss Silvia and her magnificent team of teachers for providing the best possible education for our two boys. Bluebonnet Montessori will always hold a special place in our hearts.”

“Dear Bluebonnet Families,
After participating in the Bluebonnet Parents Association for 5 ½ years and being "chief organizer" for 4, it is time to pass the torch. As I reflect over the years, I am very touched by the friendships I have made through Bluebonnet and its community. Families have come and gone and come back over the last 6 years. It is great to see the younger siblings of our children reach Bluebonnet. Over the years, we have been able to do wonderful things as a community, for the community. We have helped promote and fight to "Stamp Out Hunger", by collecting food and cash donations for the Capital Area Food Bank of Texas; collecting enough food and money for almost 6,000 meals. We have helped to promote Recycle, Reuse, Reduce through our participation in the Cartridges For Kids program. We held fundraisers to raise money for a young teacher with cancer. We raised almost $7000 (in our first year of participation!!) for the fight against breast cancer and walked in the "Race for A Cure." Go Ambassadors! Not bad for a small school!!!!! Everyone should pat themselves on the back for all of your contributions. I have learned that everyone is a contributor, no matter whether it is through volunteering time, making donations, offering to spread the word about our great school or cooking meals for a sick teacher or friend in need. I am honored to say that I am a part of the Bluebonnet Montessori School of Lakeway for our accomplishments, whether big or small. As I write this note, I remember Ava's first day at Bluebonnet; three years old in pigtails. She was shy but ready to start HER journey before her little sister was born. As Ava now moves on to her next chapter, public school at Serene Hills, she will always carry Bluebonnet with her. She has grown up to become a leader, willing to be continually challenged by her teachers at school, in dance and by her friends. She is diligent, compassionate and creative. This is mostly do in part to her years at Bluebonnet and the Montessori way of teaching. Ms. Shah has been Ava's teacher since the beginning. Ava has a fondness for learning that can only be translated by her relationship with her teacher. Ms. Shah's passion for teaching and expanding our children's horizons is truly remarkable and translated by her students accomplishments thus far and yet to come!
And let's not forget Margo….. She is happy to step in where her sister is leaving off. (I think she is looking forward to going it on her own and not following in Ava's footsteps!) Thanks to Ms. Shah, Margo has overcome her fear of reading, loves geography and math. And, let me not leave out, socializing with her friends. We cannot wait to see where Bluebonnet takes her in the future. Again, I cannot express my gratitude for all of your support and understanding over the years." Amelia Floyd

“It is my pleasure to be given the opportunity to say "thank you" and to highly recommend Bluebonnet Montessori. The owner Ms. Silvia and all of the teachers and staff are nothing short of amazing. My family moved to Austin from out of state toward the end of the school year in 2007. I was concerned about my three year old son not being able to "gel" right into a new state, culture and Montessori school. After discussing this with Ms. Silvia, she was kind enough to find my son a space and allow him to begin right away. This was the best decision, in my opinion, as Bluebonnet was a perfect fit. The school strongly emphasizes academics which my son always leaned toward. It is amazing what is taught at Bluebonnet and more importantly how it is taught. Botany, chemistry, history, along with many other topics at age 5? Alec's teacher, Ms. Shah, is so experienced that she teaches me a lot about my son. She is incredible.
I'm always thrilled to see what comes home in my son's "work" bag. I can hardly believe what he is learning at his age. The kicker was that my son was so excited to learn and return to school each day. I completely trust the entire staff with the children's wellbeing. It became obvious very soon after being enrolled that they are completely committed to each and every child. I cannot say enough and will be sad when it is time to leave.”
Kristine Watson

”Thank you, Ms. Shah, for encouraging and supporting Lauren’s and Alex’s journey of exploration. Your enthusiasm for learning is infectious. I asked Lauren what she liked best about school, and she said it was the things she didn’t know yet. What a wonderful outlook on education you have instilled!”
Gratefully yours, Jennifer Meyer

Letter to Maggie
Dear Maggie,
You are 4 ½ years old and completing your second year at Bluebonnet Montessori School of Lakeway. It is almost all you have ever known beyond our little house so it seems natural and normal to you, and for that I am immensely grateful. However, it is important that you realize what a precious and rare gift it is. We’ve lived in this neighborhood for 16 years and we witnessed this strange brown building gradually being formed off of the main street called Debba Dr. Long before you were even conceived the Bluebonnet Montessori sign went up and we kept our eye on it for you. Once I decided to become a mother and God blessed me with your sweet little Spirit I knew from day one you would be a Montessori child. However, it was almost impossible for me to trust anyone other than myself to care for you and your precious being. I made many calls to Ms. Silvia and asked her what seemed to be hundreds of questions. I talked to all of my mom friends and found people who knew people who knew people at Bluebonnet and I quizzed them intensely about the school and the teachers there. Before you turned 2 I put you on the waiting list. There was a toddler class at that time and I was so anxious for you to start. It was such a warm and inviting space. Right about the time you were ready to begin, the toddler program ended and my heart broke. We would have to wait another year for your journey there to begin. I felt complete delight the day I received a phone call from Ms. Silvia saying she would like to meet you and determine if it was the right time and the right fit. You were only 2 ¾ and I have to confess that I may have rushed you through potty training just a little bit. I never doubted for a moment that they would fall in love with you and I was filled with absolute peace and joy watching you and Ms. Silvia that first day in the class room.
Today your days are filled with love, laughter and learning. Your creative mind is thriving and your spirit soars. You love your friends and teachers and you never hesitate to fill me in on the emotional state of the day at school. You are learning about respect, patience, diversity, feelings, and caring for the earth and all of the beings on it. You are learning to think for yourself, to cooperate with others, and to speak your truth without tattling. You can
spell, and count, and write from 1- 100 backwards! You know that you are capable, competent, and that you matter. You are learning to find and mimic positive role models, as well as how to be one. After school our time together is threaded with many moments pretending to be Ms.Silvia, her daughter Rachel, Ms. Terry and Ms. Michelle. We practice teaching, singing, writing, creating and traveling the globe. You and I both owe much gratitude to Ms. Silvia especially, for being so kind and guiding me to help you in ways that I could not have conceived. When we struggled at home and I had no idea what to do Ms. Silvia took time to teach me, and her methods worked like magic (ask me about the morning book). I could not have asked for a more perfect place or more beautiful people to help us care for you and nurture your growth. The way you play out the abundance you clearly receive on a daily basis is all the evidence I need to know that we are in the right place. We are all incredibly blessed. Thank you Bluebonnet Montessori!
Sincerely, Shannan Carrozza (Maggie’s Mom)

”Dear Bluebonnet,
Over the past six years my children have been fortunate enough to experience a love of learning, independence for life, and a commitment to care for their friends, the environment, and themselves. Thank you for opening up the world to Cade and Layne.”
Love, Brandi Young-Bruce

”I wanted to express my gratitude for our teachers in the Mimosa class Mrs. Shah and Mrs. Myra. I appreciate all your hard work, your love and the care you give to our children. Through the time you spend with our children; teaching in a variety of courses while stressing individual exploration and the essence of free thought, you teachers have given our kids a very valuable learning experience which will benefit them both now and in the future. The value of these achievements cannot be overemphasized. Every Sunday morning, my husband and I enjoy the time we spend with our children perusing the work they have accomplished during the week. We never cease to be amazed by the progress they attain week to week in all courses; Math, Science, History, Geography and Language. We're delighted with the work our kids bring home such as the anatomy of both plants and the human body, the intricate detail of a country, its cities and its people, and their journals depicting both their artistry and their story of their friendships at school. None of this admiration should diminish the life lessons they are learning about how to be a good person and about how to use critical thought to view the world both aesthetically and intellectually. We appreciate the seed of education that you are planting in our children's minds and therefore, thank you for your investment of time and thank you for putting such a high expectation in our children's future through education, love and patience. I am sure your work will make a difference in their lives.”
Doug and Maza Heineman

”Dear Ms. Silvia and your amazing team at Bluebonnet,
Thank you so much for making our first year at Bluebonnet such an incredible journey. There are times in life when you just know in your heart that things are right and synergistic. That is exactly how we feel when we drop off our son at school every morning, and pick him up every afternoon. As in life, everyday may not be "perfect", but we know profoundly that James is in the perfect and nurturing environment for academic learning, for learning about being part of a community, and most importantly for his own self-discovery. Watching the evolution in just a year, from a toddler to a young boy, has been truly incredible. The enthusiasm of spirit we see in him working through the joys and the challenges of life facilitated by the expert and loving guidance of teachers and friends gives us complete affirmation in our decision to join the Bluebonnet School. I feel so grateful, as parents, for the simple yet invaluable suggestions of Ms. Mia and Ms. Kumar that helped James navigate his first year. To the entire team, thank you with heartfelt admiration and gratitude for creating such an incredible environment for all of our children and the families of Bluebonnet. We truly feel like we have found our "home" for many years to come.”
With our sincere thanks, John and Maria Carter

”Dear Silvia and Bluebonnet team,
I cannot tell you how happy we are with Sahib's progress at Bluebonnet Montessori. Looking at his achievements in the 2 yrs that he has spent with you, I only wish I had known of your school during Kabir's pre-school years. The confidence with which Sahib handles tasks and independently accomplishes them, amazes me. He is always coming up with unique ideas and solutions to his ideas. He is so conscious of taking care of our environment, that anything and everything is checked and then double checked to see if it can be reused for something else. Kudos to you for that. Your team has done a wonderful job of re-enforcing the principles that we practice at home – to be kind and helpful to others. Music lessons with Ms.Michelle have been another joyous addition to his life. We are all going to miss The Bluebonnet family immensely. Thank you so much, and may you continue to show the next generation the right path in life. Good Luck!”
Regards, Moninder Chadha

”Dear Prospective Families,
Our son has been attending Bluebonnet Montessori for the past two years and we continue to be delighted with his educational and social development. The teachers' commitment and dedication to the students is unique, like no other school I have experienced. They truly unleash each child's potential to stretch and reach their capabilities. Prior to being part of the Bluebonnet Montessori School, we had not experienced this level of education, care and attention for our son. If you are considering enrolling your child at Bluebonnet Montessori, you will not be disappointed with your decision!”
Pamela & John Palmer (Mountain Laurel Classroom parents)

”What can be said about a method of teaching that believes children are capable of Self-Directed learning and where the teachers believe that the greatest sign of success for a teacher is to be able to say, "The children are now working as if I did not exist". Coming from a traditional Public School background we thought we would never "buy in" to the methodology ….. but we have. Bluebonnet Montessori has created a loving and nurturing environment for our 3 children. The teachers are passionate about what they do and make the development of the children a personal mission. One advantage of Bluebonnet, in particular, is that Silvia (the owner) and many of the other teachers were trained outside the United States where the Montessori principles were developed and are more prevalent. We believe their understanding of the Montessori philosophy brings a stronger understanding of the learning principles and adds an added flare and perspective not often acquired from a Public School. The teachers at Bluebonnet create a stimulating, individualized and sensory learning environment that has awakened our children's ability to learn. We highly recommend it.”
Peter and Hope Bartolotta

As the spring 2009 school year comes to an end I'd like to express my appreciation to the teachers at Bluebonnet Montessori for the efforts they have put forth for my children. My 3 year old Sarah and her sister have been under the care of some the best teachers I could hope for them to have, Ms. Mie and Ms. Kumar. All the Bluebonnet staff is obviously deeply interested and involved in Sarah's education progress. The comments from them in Sarah's take-home work are tailored to her as an individual and not just a member of a class. The teachers at Bluebonnet foster a relationship that is more like family than outsider. We realize that this is in part possible due to the student load the Montessori teachers enjoy versus public education, but a great deal of this is also dependent on the teachers interest in the individual child. Parents are often faced with issues that they don't have the answers for, but we are fortunate to have Ms. Mie as a resource willing to meet with my wife and me to discuss strategies and alternative ideas to deal with these issues. Although this is Sarah's first year with Ms. Mie and Ms. Kumar, her sister Clara was Ms. Mie's student for 2 years before her. There are other education choices available to us that are just as convenient and affordable, but we feel that Ms. Mie and the whole Bluebonnet staff offer such a quality experience we would not consider another. We are so confident that Bluebonnet is the right choice for us that we have our 6 year old daughter enrolled there for the third year. For Sarah, Ms. Mie, Ms. Kumar and the Bluebonnet staff offer an individual education experience that is tailored to her readiness to progress that is not dependent on the rest of the class. This is a distinguishing factor from public education that is important to my wife and me. When compared to other children older than Sarah her Montessori education has put her development far superior and advanced. When we meet with Ms. Mie at the 3 parent teacher conferences during the school term we come away knowing that she really does know Sarah and wants the best for her. We appreciate the personal attention our daughters receive and will have Sarah enrolled under Ms. Mie and Ms. Kumar's care as long as possible. We will then want them to advance to the next level of Montessori.”
Sincerely, Jimmy Ashley

”Dear Bluebonnet Montessori Teachers & Staff,
I would like to let you know of our experience with Bluebonnet Montessori School of Lakeway and the impact you have made on our children Franke & Ava. This year marked our 3rd year with Bluebonnet. It was the first year that both our children attended the school at the same time. Franke was the first to arrive 3 years ago. He was very tentative, cautious, and even shy but always curious. Slowly he's grown into a confident boy. I'm amazed at the material and the level of learning that is prevalent in this Montessori environment. Franke is in Kindergarten this year doing triple digit multiplication and long division in Math and even more in geometry. His wonderful teachers Ms. Shah and Ms. Myra have done an amazing job of bringing him out of his shell and thriving in his work. His reading has blossomed from knowing the alphabet to reading 3rd or 4th grade books fairly quickly. He has determination and is highly motivated to learn new things presented to him at Bluebonnet. He knows he is surrounded by teachers and other children that love him and support him which allows him to grow. This is Ava's first year at Bluebonnet and she has also taken to the material and to her teacher's Ms. Silvia and Ms. Terry. Ms. Michelle is the always fun music teacher and she has truly inspired a love of music in my kids. I can see that the teachers and staff really care about the children and have a true interest in their well being and education. With all the diversity and level of learning combined with the loving teachers and staff, Bluebonnet Montessori is a quality preschool and elementary education program. We are grateful for all you've done for our children thus far! Sincerely, Renata Myers"Insert break here
"Bluebonnet has been an amazing adventure for Arielle and us (Mom and Dad)! We watch her sense of discovery increase significantly to the point that she is constantly exploring, especially things in nature. It is so much fun to watch her get excited about her discoveries. We are so, so happy that Arielle is at Bluebonnet and it is so comforting to know that she is surrounded by incredible teachers that love her with the gift of inspiring our little one to learn, explore and challenge herself. Thank you Bluebonnet for being a wonderful environment to our precious gift, Ari”
Thank you, Angela Anderson

”Ms. Silvia,
I would like to acknowledge the huge growth and emotional development we have seen in Sierra since she has been attending Bluebonnet since October 2008. She is more confident, she is more independent, her world is bigger both from the teachers and her new classmate friends, too. It is always a special moment each day for me, to see her so proudly walk out of school, back to the car, to go home. I love that she is learning 'her part' in the world, her sense of responsibility is developing and that is extremely important for great relationships. Thank you for being such a great huge impact on Sierra's life. I was speaking with a friend today, I think the preschool our kids go to is more important than the college they choose!"
In gratitude, Lorin Blake

I have two children in the Bluebonnet Montessori program. Ryan, who is 3, and Jason, who is almost 7. When Jason first joined the program at age 4, he was struggling with focusing on some of the more basic tasks such as reading and comprehension. I feel that he received the personalized attention needed at Bluebonnet to help guide him through this transitional period. He has been attending Bluebonnet for 3 years now and has truly blossomed in his reading and math skills. More importantly, he is almost always enthusiastic about his school work and eager to learn. Ryan, it would seem, is a little more of a quick study. But even the brightest children eventually need the type of hands on, one on one instruction that is only available in a setting such as Bluebonnet. I can rest assured that Ryan will be encouraged to reach his full potential at Bluebonnet Montessori and receive a well rounded education involving all the various disciplines. When I attend the Parent's Education Nights, I am constantly amazed at the numerous areas of instruction that are taught at Bluebonnet, and the children's ability to take it all in. At the end of the day, the best measure of any schools performance is the level of enthusiasm the children exhibit each morning as they leave to start their day and this is when Jason and Ryan are at their happiest.”

My initial goal of putting Reese into Bluebonnet Montessori School was for Reese to be with other children her own age, and to be able to socialize and interact with others. What transpired was unexpected and rewarding for me, as Reese's Dad. I was lucky and blessed enough to see my daughter Reese grow and blossom into a young lady who never fails to surprise me on a daily basis. Reese had started as a young shy three year old. After two years, she is able to express herself seamlessly and eloquently in thoughts and in emotions. With the Bluebonnet Montessori program, Reese was given the opportunity to learn and to interact at her own pace. She was introduced to so many facets of school and to learn from the best and most caring and patient teachers. The dedication of Miss Silvia and Miss Terry to minute details and the feed back that I received from them have helped Reese, as well as myself, in numerous ways. I am lucky enough to be able to learn along with Reese, and to be involved with her school activities. I am pleasantly astonished that my four year old is able to teach her slow dad how to count in Spanish, to teach him where the continents and countries are, to show her dad that she is able to read and write, to do math and to perform so many other tasks. The Montessori system allows children to pace themselves without the added pressure to reach a certain goal within a certain time. In doing so, the children are allowed to express themselves fully and to excel without the fear of failure. In doing so, it allows the children to be confident in their abilities to achieve whatever they can set their minds to. Miss Silvia and Miss Terry, as well as all the other teachers who came in contact with Reese, have helped Reese opened her horizon up to learning new things and to express herself freely, as all children should be able to do. I am grateful that these teachers are there to "hold Reese's hands" in guiding her through these years. I applaud their dedication and patience to the children, as well as their passion to the admirable field of teaching. I am glad Reese can be with someone who is caring and nurturing when I myself cannot be with her during the day.
I have always thought that it takes a certain level of patience and love from teachers to be able to guide and work with children. The teachers at Bluebonnet Montessori school have pleasantly exceeded all my expectations of what teachers should be. I feel confident in recommending anyone to the Bluebonnet Montessori school Family. Kudos to all the teachers at Bluebonnet Montessori!!!!!!!!!!!
Reese's Proud Dad, Toai Pham

”Our daughter, who is 5 ½ years old, has attended Bluebonnet Montessori of Lakeway for 2 years. Not only does she love her school, her teachers and her friends but she has adopted an absolute love of learning. She is currently reading (2) 16 page books on a weekly basis, executing 4 digit addition and subtraction equations, completing a weekly 10 word spelling dictation, researching and writing on her favorite subjects and beginning to write in her journal. As we believe every parent should do on a periodic basis, we discuss other educational options with parents who have children attending other types of schools. We have concluded that the combination of the Montessori method of teaching that is taught at Bluebonnet Montessori of Lakeway along with the attention that her teachers provide her on a daily basis is the key to her extraordinary growth. And yes, our daughter will be returning to Bluebonnet Montessori of Lakeway next year to continue her growth and love of learning.”
Kerri Kraft

”Bluebonnet Montessori School of Lakeway deserves the highest recommendation. My child attended Bluebonnet for several years. During this time his positive developmental gain in academics and life skills has excelled beyond imagination. The individual attention Bluebonnet provides to the strengths and weaknesses along with creativity, care and concern based in a secure, positive environment has surpassed expectations. Observing the joy and skills in my child daily is wonderful."
Thank you Bluebonnet, Cathie King

”To Ms. Shah,
Kris and I would like to thank Ms. Shah for the wonderful job she has done as Dominic's teacher and mentor over the last 3 years. Looking back, we reflect on how time has gone by so fast...and in thinking about this....we realize it's gone by so fast because Ms. Shah has made Dominic's education so easy for us. You know, when things aren't going very well, or when you're always having to look over someone's shoulder, time does not just "fly by". We have felt so taken care of by Ms. Shah....and so pleased with Dominic's progress, that we never had to consider intervening or worrying about the education Ms. Shah was providing. After 5 years at Bluebonnet, Dominic will be transitioning to LT Elementary. A couple of weeks ago, I took Dominic along with some of his math and science work, to meet the Vice Principal there. When we showed her Dominic's work, which is the same work that many of Ms. Shah's students do, her eyes literally popped out of her head! This, she said, was 4th, 5th and 6th grade math and science! Upon hearing that, it again confirmed to me what an amazing teacher Ms. Shah is. With her guidance and her willingness and capability to introduce and explain complex subjects to her students, her students have benefited immensely by not only gaining the knowledge of the subject, but also, so
importantly, gaining self confidence. At a recent Parent-Teacher conference, I talked to Ms. Shah about how I might deal with problems that come up with future teachers who don't know my child so well, and who frankly, won't take the time to get to know their students so well. She assured me that "the line was always open'" and that I could contact her at any time in the future to discuss issues that might come up. At that point, I realized...Ms. Shah not only feels responsible for Dominic's education up to this point, but she also comes with a lifetime warranty! Last year, in a bit of a rocky period, Ms. Shah again showed her willingness and heartfelt desire to find the best solution to a problem. Instead of retreating from the problem, Ms. Shah engagingly embraced it and offered us numerous suggestions. The one we chose was enrolling Dominic in Tae Kwon Do! With the guidance of Master Chris, this suggestion has proven to be an extremely good choice. Thank you Ms. Shah for that proactive suggestion. Ms. Shah, thank you so much for engaging so completely with our son. You have played a major role in launching him toward any goal he may aim for! I'd like to end by reading a poem from Kahlil Gibran entitled "On Children" which speaks to parents, but also, applies so perfectly to Ms. Shah, because she has been an exemplary mentor for our children:
On Children by Kahlil Gibran Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself. They come through you but not from you, And though they are with you yet they belong not to you. You may give them your love but not your thoughts, For they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams. You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you. For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday. You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth. The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far. Let our bending in the archer's hand be for gladness; For even as He loves the arrow that flies, so He loves also the bow that is stable.”
Cindy Kozarek

”Our daughter loves her school and we are amazed to see all the knowledge she is exposed to and how she is challenged every day. We are impressed with the teaching material, which helps kids to learn in a fun hands on way. For sure this is one of the few places where a six years old can work on algebra, chemistry, geometry, or world geography. The teachers at Bluebonnet are very professional and warm, providing the perfect environment for kids to thrive as smart and empathetic persons."
Thanks, Paola Mieres

"Our daughter has been enrolled at Bluebonnet Montessori School for the past three years. She has fully enjoyed her experience there. The teachers are patient, compassionate, understanding and respectful of all the children there. The teachers encourage the children to be imaginative, to be curious,to problem solve, and are continuously challenging them. They worked with our daughter’s individual learning style, and each year we saw AMAZING progress. Our daughter is going to Kindergarten with heightened problem solving skills, social skills and academic skills (especially in math and reading) that far exceeded my expectations. But most importantly she will be entering a new school with confidence. I would highly recommend Bluebonnet to help your child get a great educational start during a time in their lives when learning is so exciting and fun!”
Tarun and Christine Nakra

”Dear Bluebonnet,
Our family started at Bluebonnet the first year Silvia opened 8 years ago. Our son is now in sixth grade and the desire and love to learn that Bluebonnet helped to develop has still carried. We have had the opportunity to have our additional 3 children attend Bluebonnet as well. Throughout this time we have been able to have the pleasure of watching each child develop a desire and love to learn. Our family is so appreciative of the atmosphere of encouragement that each one of our children has had the privilege to be a part of. We cannot express enough appreciation and joy to the school for the enthusiasm they gain through their Montessori experiences. Bluebonnet has encouraged our family to broaden our children's international experience and fostered a level of independence that has built life long confidence that our children have carried with them throughout their future educational experience. Thank you for providing such a great start.”
Sincerely, The Searle Family

”Our son is truly enjoying his experiences at Bluebonnet Montessori. Everyday he gets up eager to go to school with a smile on his face, which lasts from the time he's in the car to school until we pick him up at the end of the day. Bluebonnet provides a nurturing environment where he feels safe and loved while given the educational tools to ensure a most rewarding, successful future.”
Lisa D’Andrade

”I am very proud to say that I have a smart and inquisitive, kind and caring, and a very independent six-yar old daughter. Three years at Bluebonnet Montessori have nurtured her not only academically but her whole self. Nithya's primary teachers Ms. Silvia & Ms. Terry and her elementary teachers Ms. Shah and Ms. Myra have sown in her the love for learning, the importance of hard work and the joy of independence, all of which I am hopeful she will carry on with her for the rest of her life. My daughter has made so much progress academically and has also made many friends and memories at Bluebonnet Montessori. I highly recommend this school to any parent who cares to provide their child with high quality early education.”
Thirumagal Kumar

"Both of my children have benefitted immensely from attending Bluebonnet Montessori. Besides a rich learning environment, they learn such invaluable things as being courteous to others, how to be global citizens, a rich music enrichment and how all cultures are not only accepted but welcomed. Bluebonnet Montessori is a diamond in the rough where the teacher's passion for education and their enthusiasm for their students is unparalleled. The teachers we have had for almost five years are a testament to the quality of education that my sons received. I cannot think of a better foundation for my boys.”
