The principal was a big help with any questions and very personable. My daughter met some amazing teachers who will have a great lifelong impression on her.

We absolutely love the Montessori teachers. Honestly though, I haven't come across a single unfriendly teacher throughout the school. They all seem kind and welcoming

My son is in the Montessori program and displays the attributes of ADHD and his teachers are extremely accommodating and doing their best to find a learning style that matches his needs

We love Caughman. I debated putting my kids on a special assignment to another school because the ratings and reviews for Caughman weren't great. I'm so glad I didn't though. Both my kids are in the Montessori program and it is absolutely fabulous. Please look into the program for your children if you're on the fence. You will not be disappointed. But truthfully, the school as a whole is wonderful. The principal, Mrs. Hall, is so sweet and is right out there every morning and afternoon helping in any way she can. We love Caughman and are proud to be Comets!

My children are in the Montessori program and their only homework is reading for 20 minutes every night, so I can't attest to the homework for the rest of the school

My daughter loves the Montessori program. Great teachers! Fun family programs too! I plan on sending my 3 other children there in the next few years.

Caughman Road is a great school . The teachers are helpful and provided a great deal of information to parents during parent conferences. I would like to however see more events that focuses on learning involving the parents and children. I think this will help to improve the community and school relationship.

Disappointing! Lack of communication, staff members do not speak to or treat parents as adults. I do not recommend this school to any parent! The only positive that this school has is the after school program held by Edventures.

I like Caughman Rd. but I was dissappointed that they didn't have a ceremony for the kindergardens. My daughter is in the kindergarden and my friends that also have children in the kindergarden told me about their schools kindergarden ceremony.
