Pros

Colleagues and co-workers are very friendly.

Cons

Leadership style is corporate, "yes sir"; focuses on having multiple levels of administrators, not teachers and school staff; follows a daycare calendar, not a school year calendar.

Guidepost Montessori Response

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback. We do see Guidepost Montessori as a community for trained Montessorians and hope that our school leaders reflect this philosophy in their leadership style. We hope that Montessorians will shape our schools at all levels. We are also very transparent that we are open year round, which allows us to provide a Montessori education to children who would otherwise not be able to attend. We know that every child from 0-6 years old thrives in consistency and order, and we are proud to be able to support their development over the summer months.

Pros

I have been with Guidepost for almost four years, and I am extremely happy in my role as a Children’s House Lead Guide. I truly couldn’t ask for a better position. The work environment is very positive, and I am surrounded by kind, supportive colleagues. The leadership is exceptional—our Head of School is an amazing, understanding, and uplifting person who creates a culture where everyone feels valued we feel supported and I’ve learn so many new skills. Even in last-minute or challenging situations, she responds with positivity and grace. I feel very supported and appreciated every day.

Cons

There are very few downsides to mention. Like any workplace, occasional last-minute situations can arise, but they are handled very well by head of school.

Pros

I’ve been at Guidepost for four years, and it has truly been one of the most meaningful experiences of my career. Watching each child grow, gain confidence, and thrive is a joy I never take for granted. I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t wholeheartedly believe in the work we do. The safety and wellbeing of every child is at the center of our mission, and I wouldn’t recommend this school if I didn’t fully trust that each child is cared for with genuine respect, compassion, and intention. Beyond the incredible environment we create for our children, the team here is something special. We support, trust, and genuinely care about one another. I couldn’t write this review without mentioning our admin team. They have created a culture of care, respect, and trust with the staff. They guide us, encourages us, and continually helps us grow. Working at Guidepost has been a magical experience.

Cons

Honestly, there’s not much that I would deem a “con”
