Parent Reviews and Testimonials
Natalie Dugan2022-10-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This school is wonderful! We love the Montessori method, the staff, and the campus. Our 2 year old goes five days a week and absolutely loves her teachers and friends. We were looking for a preschool that was not daycare like setting and we couldn’t be happier with the education and practical skills our child is learning! Kristin Golub2022-10-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are new to AIA this year and have found the academics and experience have exceeded our expectations! Carolina2022-10-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is our first year at AIA. The kids love their teachers. Dr. Eliaschev and all of the staff are amazing. We are so impressed with the classroom set up and the materials that are used. The kids come home excited to tell us about their lessons, projects they're working on and interactions they've had. I love that they are exposed to yoga, art, engineering and Spanish. The class size is perfect and the kids get a lot of time outdoors. Excited to see how they progress over the next few years. There is an adjustment period while getting used to the Montessori method, but the payoff is well worth it. Extremely happy mama!!

I love this school specially the environment that they had been building for us ( kiddos & parents) Alpharetta International Academy was the best decision ever I made for my children. The school is always super clean and extra well organized even with all the classrooms full and active with play and multiple centers are open for the kids to keep them engaged. The staff is definitely the best that AIA have, they are friendly and well prepared to keep the children continuously learning. A warm and safe environment they offer for us. My kid love his class specially he is so engaged with Mrs. Rao and Mrs. Josh’s. The leadership of the staff and management speaks for it self and Dr. Eliaschev the Head of School is for me the best acquisition ever! I can call at any time and the teachers update me on my kid day promptly as the principal do. I highly recommend Alpharetta International Academy. This Montessori school is advocate to help grow your kiddo in a confindece environment, has everything a parent wants for their child. A Happy Parent, a happy life! Tru Nguyen2022-10-19Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am so grateful to have found this school for our 6 year old son. I love the staff and the way the school operates. The staff is kind, loving and very structured in the way they run the school. Our son loves going to school. For after school programs, we have options for art classes, writing (!), robotics and more. My son brought home a beautiful painting that shocked me. My husband and I continuously get surprised at how much we love This school. The parents are so awesome. We create community and there’s a sense of bringing for us as parents as well. Amazing school all around. Thank you for all that you do AIA! Sneha Shenoy2022-10-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are truly happy to be part of the AIA family! Greeted by friendly faces every morning, as we pull into school, we couldn't have chosen a better place for our child. The Montessori way makes the child extremely independent and I can definitely see the difference it has made in my child!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
