Apple Montessori Schools & Camps - Towaco

We wanted to take a moment to share how happy we are with the overall experience our triplets have had at Apple Montessori. All three are now in their second year, and we’ve seen tremendous growth in each of them, both academically and socially. It’s been such a joy to watch their confidence, curiosity, and love for learning continue to blossom.

We’d like to give special thanks to Mrs. Dubes, who has been particularly attentive to our daughter and her development. She and her team have done a wonderful job keeping us consistently updated on classroom activities and progress. We truly appreciate the time and effort it takes to share those daily insights, as we know it’s not always easy, and it makes a big difference for us as parents.

We’d also like to acknowledge Mrs. Bueno and Mrs. Oakley, who have both been wonderful. Our daughter and son are clearly enjoying their experiences with them and come home happy and engaged every day.

Thank you so much for all that you do. We’re deeply grateful for the care, structure, and encouragement you provide, and we look forward to seeing our triplets continue to grow and develop with the Apple Montessori community.

We are incredibly happy with our experience at Apple Montessori, Towaco.

Ms. Oakley is an absolute gem! We have seen a significant positive change in our daughter; she is now noticeably more confident and sure of herself than when she started. She absolutely loves coming to school and is clearly having a lot of fun. Ms. Oakley creates a wonderfully engaging and nurturing environment where children truly thrive. We feel so lucky to be part of her class!

Mrs. Yager is an equally amazing and passionate teacher for my other daughter. Her dedication to the children and the curriculum shines through every single day. She creates an environment where students feel genuinely cared for and excited to learn. The level of enthusiasm and engagement Mrs. Yager brings to her work is truly outstanding.

We highly recommend Apple Montessori and Mrs. Yager or Ms. Oakley to any family looking for a top-tier pre-K experience!

We also want to shout out the amazing housekeeping staff, Mrs. Rocca, who keeps the facility spotless—it shows how much the school cares about the children's environment. Beyond the classroom, the school community is wonderful, hosting fun events that make it enjoyable for both parents and students.

We love Apple Montessori. Our children transferred from the Wayne location toddler class to the Towaco location (to reduce driving time) a few months ago and we were so nervous about the transition. However, both children transitioned smoothly and we were so surprised. From our initial meeting with Mrs Dube, we knew our children would not only get the enriching education that Apple Montessori offers but also a warm and loving environment. Our children are currently the youngest in the class, and they are learning so much from the older children- the growth was evident within just a few weeks. Mrs Dube and the assistant teachers also provide our children with the freedom to explore tasks and materials/work that they are curious about, which gives them great confidence to try new things. Mrs Dube is such a great communicator- she called us daily when our children first transferred and she continues to call us to provide important updates. She’s also always willing to talk in person which is so important and refreshing in a time when most schools prefer to communicate through apps and emails. I am always recommending Apple Montessori to friends and family- it’s so rare to find a school like this, where your children are not only thriving in their environment but also coming home every day wanting to talk about their work, activities, etc.

We are thrilled to be in Mrs. Dube's class this year, our son's second year at Apple Montessori. Mrs. Dube is an exceptional teacher who provides truly individualized attention. She quickly assessed our son’s skill level and allows him to progress at his own accelerated pace. We especially appreciate how she expertly guides his strengths and areas for growth outside of a one-size-fits-all model.We have already observed increased social development this year. She fosters a focused, engaging environment that has instilled a strong love of learning and independence. Highly recommended!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Mrs. Dube. From the very beginning, she has gone above and beyond in every way. She has a remarkable ability to bring out the best in her students, pushing them to reach higher while keeping learning joyful and engaging.

What truly sets her apart is her genuine passion for teaching. My son has grown in ways we couldn’t have imagined when he started the year his handwriting was barely legible, and within just a few weeks under her guidance, he had perfected his letters and now truly enjoys writing.

She cares deeply about each child’s success, not just academically but emotionally. She takes time to understand their individual strengths and challenges and even shares techniques with parents to continue guiding at home.

Mrs. Dube is kind, inspiring, and wholeheartedly invested in her students. We are so grateful that our son has her as his kindergarten teacher.
