This WAS a school when Endevor didn't own with it. We had been going to this school for about 2 years. We loved this school and how welcoming it was to our children. The teatchers and staff greeted us all by name. Our daughter made friends with not only the other students but with the amazing teachers that cared for her like one of their own. When they sent our director home without a 2-4 week notice, everything changed rapidly. The environment changed and didn't feel like a safe and welcoming space anymore. The teachers we... read more
I too am writing this review to echo sentiments in recent reviews. Endeavor does not have your child's best interest at heart. They have taken a family (both parents/students and staff) and shattered it with their arrogant, racist and demeaning stance. They have lied to parents, treated us with disregard, created a hostile school environment to which parents and teachers have responded by unenrolling their children (more than 50% of students have been unenrolled) and resigning (more than 1/3 of the teachers with more to foll... read more
So sad what has happened to Fulbright Montessori. Poor take over by management with extreme UN-organization, lack of professionalism, bribery tactics to keep staff, and poor planning after the resignation of the wonderful director, Ms. Julie. I can honestly see why she quit. Endeavor Schools seems like it's in the business of purchasing schools without a care for the community or children. Almost ALL of the incredible Fulbright teachers have now left, in the span of just a few weeks! That tells you how Endeavor runs it's s... read more
Fulbright was a wonderful place until purchased by Endeavor schools. Their push for changes and treatment of the staff led to the director and half a dozen teachers leaving in a span of a few months. All the positive past comments were due to the hard efforts of the past director and the environment she fostered with her teachers. There are so many issues that almost a hundred parents banded together to communicate concerns. The responses and engagement were lackluster. They are bleeding teachers. Parents (some who have sp... read more
Worst school ever !!! Thank god I found another school for my child cuz the administration office is a joke !!! They don't care about the kids or the parents they just sit down on their chair good for nothing people
Parents Beware! DO NOT send your children to Fulbright. I am writing this review with a very heavy heart. After much searching, we were thrilled to have found such a wonderful Montessori. The safe, personable and loving atmosphere, combined with true montessori mind set and teachings were exactly what we wanted for our children. Sadly, that all changed with the take over by Endeavor corporate schools. Recently we were informed of the resignation our beloved director Ms. Julie and that "Dr. M" would be stepping in. We ... read more
This one star goes to Endeavor Schools and Alexandra Magliarditi. This review has nothing to do with the teachers of Fulbright. The teachers are the most amazing human beings I have ever met. Unfortunately, because of Endeavor Schools and Alexandra, the amazing teachers will soon leave Fulbright and other school will be blessed with them. Bottom line, Alexandra and Endeavor will say "It was Ms. Julie's choice to resign" "We even gave her more money." Ms. Julie was the former director of Fulbright. She was the heart and soul... read more
Long story, just make a conclusion at first, not recommend this place. We already leave Fulbright for 3 weeks, my son still has a strange behavior: whenever he has been to a new place, he always puts his hands on his back, looks so afraid to explore anything. I'm so heartbroken seeing my son acting like this because my son is not a PRISONER! We consulted 2 pediatricians and other preschools, and they said it's WEIRD. Till now I still need to encourage my kiddo every day: "hey it's okay! you don't need to put your hands on yo... read more
I usually don't put/add reviews, but what happened with Our 2yr old daughter at Fulbright can not go unnoticed. Our daughter started in Nov 2020 with Fulbright as soon as she turned 2 in Miss Zoe's class that had 2-3 other kids. Her first 3 month went relatively pretty good with no complaints & very positive feedback (we kept some of her daily teacher notes for the records). Past forward to late January we were informed that she & the other kids will join/merge with a bigger class with Miss Linda (in addition to her existe... read more
