“My son was enrolled in The School in the Woods Parent/Infant Program. We have felt so fortunate to connect with Melody and her staff at School in The Woods Montessori. I have lived in Denver my entire life and raising my second child I feel so grateful to have found School in the Woods. It is truly a gem! I know my son’s life and my life as a Mom have been enriched by our time spent at the school.”

“We are a current family of School in the Woods Montessori. Melody has an extensive background in early childhood education and with that knowledge and experience has created an incredible environment for young Denver children and families. Her reputation and ability to teach have allowed her to quickly grow one of the most respected preschool programs in the area. We have had an amazing experience over the past year and will continue to support the school for years to come.”

“Our daughter started last fall and immediately we felt we had found the perfect learning environment for her. Every day, she looks forward to school, leaves with a smile on her face, and shares her experiences the whole way home. The program fosters independence, creativity, and lifelong love of learning.
“Not only are children happy with the school, but the satisfaction within the parent community is phenomenal. It is impressive that there is already such a dedicated group of families supporting the school. The parents all seem to understand what a rare gem they have found in School in the Woods—actually, I have never seen a more satisfied group of parents. Melody has created a warm, close community for both the students and parents. And in the process she has built a loyal following of families that are committed to the school well into the future. We feel so blessed to have found School in the Woods.”
