What California does not publish here

The state publishes when licensing staff visited, not what they found. We do not hold California’s inspection findings, so nothing on this page tells you whether a visit resulted in a citation. A visit count is a measure of licensing activity, and a facility visited more often is not for that reason a worse one. Read the findings in California’s own facility search.

  • It’s a like a family. My son enjoyed every day here for 2 years. Can’t say thank you enough.

  • Sending our son here is one of the best decisions we’ve ever made; The staff is amazing.

  • I cannot praise AppleTree Montessori enough! Let's face it, its always a little nerve wrecking when looking to place our child in the hands of others. However, when I drop off my child at AppleTree he is greeted with so much love from the administration team: Toni, Kelli, Dee-Dee, to his teachers: Ms. Heather, Ms. Vanessa, and Ms. Halle. One of the best decisions we've ever made was enrolling our son into the school at 18 months. He will advance to their pre-school class in the fall. His growth and development is notable and a true testament to the wonderful educators at Appletree. He truly loves going to school and one of the highlights is helping Ms. Dee-Dee at the end of the day. There is so much love here. If you are looking for a Montessori that is going to pour into your child, look no further.

  • 值得推薦的好幼稚園!在我們一家訪美的兩個月期間,接受我們家的寶貝上學。老師親切且循循善誘的教導方式,讓孩子的情緒穩定,人格亦得以成長。

  • With Appletree Montessori I felt an instant comfort and knew this would be the right school for my daughter. We interviewed a few schools and nothing compared this school. The school director and my daughter's teachers are amazing. She is more helpful, self-sufficient and loves art since she has started. The structured class, yet loving environment has helped my 4 year old grow and I know now she will be ready for elementary school for when the time comes.

  • My son loves his preschool and his teachers miss Danielle and miss Berta. We are 100% satisfied with this place.
