What Parents Are Saying
"Look no further! Mountain Hill School is a special place that will forever have a special place in our hearts. For many years, I heard people speak highly about this school and always kept it in the back of my mind for when it was time to send our kids. It was the best decision we made for our son! We may be saying good bye to Mountain Hill this year, but we are already looking forward to sending our daughter, we absolutely loved our experience! The first day of school was our son's firt time away from us, other than being with family, he walked into his classroom and never looked back and never shed a tear. He came home everyday with a smile and always looking forward to the next school day. The teachers and staff's form of communication is phenomenal and they are all friendly, kind, and love what they do. Not many children get to go to school on a beautiful serene campus with farm animals that they can interact with. The school always has activities or events to get parents and children involved, not just at the school, but also to help the community. Mountain Hill is a home away from home, a place where kids learn by doing, and forever memories are made! ~ K.

 "Mountain Hill School--as far as my wife and I were concerned--was the only option for our children after having moved back to the area. The folks at MHS have maintained the experience and upheld the values I remember from years ago as a student there myself, and it's done wonderful things for our children both socially and academically. Like in so many other families, our children are very different students, but the Mountain Hill School teaching staff has certainly maximized the kids' respective experiences--and with a personal touch! We are forever grateful to the Mountain Hill School "family" for taking such great care of our children as students and, more importantly, human beings."

 "This is my daughter's second year at Mountain Hill and we decided to send her to Kindergarten here next year as well. We have had such a great experience here so far. My child's teacher has amazing enthusiasm and you can tell how much she loves being with the kids. The communication has been so thorough, I know exactly what she did in the classroom each day and it is so nice to see pictures of the kids and activities too. I love the way the morning is broken up for the kids and the various centers they participate in. We have appreciated the overall communication from the front office too and how things have been handled, especially through Covid times. I am so happy that we found Mountain Hill- it's such a special place and it is clear how much they care about the kids and their early education. We look forward to the next few years with our kids at Mountain Hill."

"I cannot say enough great things about Ms. Kousouris, she was the ideal first-year-of -school teacher! Her smiling face at the door and warm hugs every morning, made my daughter and me both so happy! I'm also so impressed by how much the children learned in the youngest class. Ms. K could see when my daughter was ready to be challenged a bit more and would spend some one on one time with her, which I really appreciated! Overall, I couldn't be happier with the experience, it was really magical for all of those kids!"

"At the end of my son's Pre-Kindergarten school year, I asked him if he'd like to stay at Mountain Hill School for Kindergarten or if he'd like to attend the Kindergarten at his brother's elementary school. My son Patrick's response was... I want to go to Mountain Hill for as long as I can!"

"Mountain Hill School is a very special learning place for children. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and teachers do a wonderful job making children feel special and cared for. They are greeted with warm smiles in the morning which really sets the tone for the day. As a parent, I find the teachers and school staff to be collaborative and always accessible. They're happy to share feedback and advice and I can tell they take the time to get to know each child. Feels like one big family and you get the sense that everyone really loves what they do. The curriculum is rich and interesting and the teachers do a great job of balancing fun with educational. A huge added bonus are the beautiful grounds the school is situated on. I would highly recommend Mountain Hill School to any parent looking for a school that is rich in curriculum but not short on love and smiles!"

My parents sent me to Mountain Hill School years ago and even though we have to drive 25 minutes now to get there, I knew that was where we were going to send our children. People speak so highly of Mountain Hill and there is a reason for that... it is top notch! To see my son's love for learning this young, makes us so happy!

My daughter is excited every morning to go to school and equally thrilled to tell me all about her day every afternoon. She has loved every teacher, substitute, office staff, lunch aid, special guest (and farmer!) that she has ever had. I am so grateful we decided to send Rory to MH for kindergarten, especially during this crazy year. I am blown away by all that she is learning at this age. I have tried to teach Rory about money and time and she seemed to have no interest....one week of it in Kindergarten with Mrs. Guarnaccia and Mrs. Jackapino, and she's suddenly an expert! The teachers all seem like they love being there and have tremendous energy and zest for their job. I wish the school went up to 12th grade!! Where's that petition to sign?!?! We are excited to send our little one!!

​"We can't be happier with Mountain Hill School! My son started there when he was 3 and it has been such a great experience! The school campus is amazing! I love that all the classrooms are their own little buildings and they are always neat and super clean. The property is really one of a kind. From the farm and all the animals that the children get to see to the trails and greenery, it is such a beautiful and serene atmosphere. He is in his 2nd year and we have been extremely pleased with his teachers. There are multiple teachers in each class so there is so much personal attention and they really help to tailor everything to each individual child. He brings home elaborate art projects and they do so many fun activities and you can tell how much thought the teachers put into every single lesson plan. They are also really great with making the kids feel at ease and I just can't be happier with our experience at Mountain Hill. We plan to have him stay through kindergarten and can't wait for the baby to go there as well when she is old enough.

 ​​"I have worked at Mountain Hill School for 27 years and in that time have seen it get better every year! The teachers are not only well qualified but they are totally committed and truly believe in what they do. They are always seeking ways to improve themselves and their curriculum and they are all emotionally invested in Mountain Hill School and all it stands for. The owners are totally hands on and whatever the teachers or staff need, they accommodate them completely. They believe whole-heartedly in what they do and strive every day to make the school the best it can possibly be. Their motto is "Kids first" and we have all followed that mantra. They are a pleasure to work with and to work for and our parents are always amazed at their accessibility and their commitment to what they do. We pride ourselves on helping each child reach their maximum potential and sending them on with confidence and a love of learning! It is an honor to work amongst such dedicated people and I can truly say that I love my job and am proud of what I do."
