Why I love OGMS: I love hearing what the children learned and accomplished each day. Seeing the pride and excitement that’s expressed through their progress reaffirms our decision to join OGMS. I also enjoy the community ethos that allows us to meet and interact with the staff and other families on campus. OGMS is a great place to be!
Favorite Memory about OGMS: The Journey and Discovery experience truly brought OGMS full circle for me. Getting to learn more about the Montessori Method and experience the lessons and classrooms for each age group allowed me to see the school through my child’s eyes. I would recommend Journey and Discovery to everyone.

Married to Ben, their children are Campbell, Brittain & Burson.
Why I love OGMS: Oak Grove has taught us how to be parents. We chose the school for the amazing environment; little did we know the Montessori way would shape who we are as a family.
​
Favorite OGMS memory: My favorite OGMS memory was watching my daughter, Campbell, receive her certificate for completing primary. I knew she was completely prepared to transition to public school academically, socially, and emotionally thanks to the amazing foundation and love of learning she was given at OGMS.

​
Why I love OGMS: We love how close-knit OGMS is. From day one, everyone has been so welcoming and accepting. It was so hard going back to work, but having a great community to send our children to every day makes it much easier. The OGMS environment is so relaxed and has such a wonderful, nurturing vibe for little brains to learn and thrive in.
​
Our favorite thing to do as a family: We love being outside and exploring. We are travelers at heart. We've been to some pretty amazing places in our lives, and we plan to show our littles all that the world has to offer as well.
