Testimonials

“As a trainer at Montessori Northwest I've had the opportunity to visit Arc-en-Ciel several times over the past five years and observe its evolution. One of the primary responsibilities of a Montessori Guide is to prepare, maintain, and enrich the environment, and I have noticed the thoughtful attention given to this work at Arc-en-Ciel. What stands out most is that this commitment is evident not only in the classrooms but throughout the school. When I walk into a school and feel 'at home' in the environment because it's thoughtfully prepared, free of clutter but full of beauty, it tells me that the people who steward these spaces understand the art and the essence of Montessori work.”

"Arc-en-Ciel provides a whole child approach to learning. I love collaborating with their amazing team to support language, sensory and social-emotional development!  Actively collaborating with the Arc team means the children continue to benefit from specialized support throughout the day rather than just during our session."

"Providing services in the preschool setting allows families to access needed services without the challenges of waiting lists and leaving their workplace.  Our therapists communicate with administrators, teachers, and parents regarding ways to support each child across environments. Preschool is a vital time to addrss communication and regulation challenges. Arc-en-Ciel Montessori understands this and does everything possible to make services as accessible as possible."
