  • Lupine challenges my children in a positive and nurturing light. The sense of community is outstanding, communication with teachers and the Directress is top notch, and the overall environment is wonderful. I am so pleased that my children are becoming the best versions of themselves at Lupine!

  • We have been so pleased to watch our son grow this school year in his abilities, self awareness and self confidence. Tina and Lina truly love the children and are passionate about the Montessori method. What a wonderful thing to find a second family in a school. We are looking forward to all of our children attending Lupine for years to come!

  • We love Lupine! This is our 3rd year. We’ve done public schools, homeschool and other Montessori’s. We love Lupine for the Montessori curriculum but also for the way in which the teachers and administration truly listen to parent concerns. They are open to truly hearing us. This does not mean that all parents get what they want, just because they complain. That’s not realistic, nor should it be the goal of any successful school. But I do believe that every decision made at Lupine reflects the child’s best interest. Besides the academics being on point, my children are receiving a holistic education that focuses on caring for others and our environment. They are learning to be kind, inclusive, creative and confident leaders that will one day grow up and change the world!

  • We love Lupine! My son is in the Casa and has grown leaps and bounds in the (almost) year that he has been there. We have seen his confidence soar. The teachers and administration are the best - they are always available to discuss any issues that arise - and honestly, we haven’t had any issues. We are so happy to call Lupine our home and look forward to many more years with them.

  • This place is amazing!! If you are looking for an environment that fosters lifelong learning, search no more!! The head of school is dedicated, brilliant, and loving! Your child is her child; the Lupine family is strong! And Lina, wow!! My 5 year old can't get enough of Lina and her love for the outdoors! The Lupine family engages the children in life, guiding them to LOVE learning. The children are given individual guidance at the perfect time in their life. The personal attention given to each child is simply amazing! If you are looking to give your child the best life tools, Lupine is the place!

  • Tina is an outstanding educator - my children learned to love learning because of her! I share credit with Tina for helping my boys become caring, respectful, and considerate teenagers! She is a true asset to the Lockport community!!

  • Lupine is magical! We have been in different Montessori‘s through the years, and all pale in comparison to Lupine. The curriculum is outstanding and the level of communication between teachers, administration, and parents is superior to anything we’ve experienced in the past. They put the safety and well-being of the children above all else. No detail is overlooked. We were concerned about our son being behind due to the pandemic, however because of Lupine and his amazing teachers, he is flourishing like never before. The sense of community here has been such a lovely surprise. I cannot say enough wonderful things. We feel so grateful to have found our Lupine family!
