Moving to the area and looking for suggestions for preschools in SA/Boerne area. Coming from Montessori, so looking for either a solid Montessori but open to outdoor schools, play based philosophy, low/no tech, no worksheets, etc. Have been unimpressed with Keystone's little school and St. Mary's Hall, esp. with their tech. policies and focus on "academics" at this age. Personal experiences and recommendations esp. welcome. Thank you!

Hello! My son is in a wonderful Montessori school here in NYC, but we're moving to San Antonio soon and I'm looking for a new Montessori school for him. I've done my research online and there's only one AMS accredited school in the area, Hill Country Montessori in Boerne. There are a few schools on the AMS pathway (such as the Montessori School of San Antonio) but I'm not sure what this means, exactly. I'm hesitant to consider anything not accredited. Does anyone here have any experience with these schools, or Montessori schools in San Antonio? Would you trust a school not fully AMS accredited, or on the pathway, or an AMS member school? And, finally, what are some things to look for/ask about as we consider these schools? (I was planning on asking how guides are trained, their credentials, etc.). Thank you!
