Services
Oak Brook School, Allen is dedicated to the overall education and development of each child. We offer a well-rounded program that lays the foundation for intellectual and emotional growth. We strive to have happy, healthy, and engaged children. We were voted BEST CHILD CARE and BEST SUMMER CAMP for 2018 and 2019 by Living's Readers' Choice.
Relevant Curriculum - our curriculum is top of the line state certified curriculum that we use school wide. There are two programs that we offer - first begins with our infants through preschool classes (FUNSHINE), and the second is for our Pre-K and Private-K classes (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt). HMH is also used by several local ISDs.
Tuition is calculated on a yearly basis and assessed weekly, therefore it is not reduced for these holidays. In case of inclement weather, Oak Brook will follow the Allen ISD closing decisions and standard contracted tuition will still apply. Moreover, we are always striving for ways to keep things educational yet fun for our children.
We are always seeking enthusiastic, dedicated and dependable teachers to join our team. If you believe that you have the passion to teach and nurture children, please reach out to our center Director Ms. Rachel DeBlanc. The school offers group subsidized medical, dental, vision & Life/ADD benefits to employees.
As you go through the process of choosing a child care facility for your little one, we want to take this opportunity to share with you a little about us, our philosophy and what makes Oak Brook School unique from other schools in the area. One of the first things that struck us when we took over was the sense of family that exists at the school; this was repeatedly communicated to us by both the current parents and staff.

My daughter has attended this school since she was 7 weeks old. We thoroughly enjoy the outpour of love and nuturing that our daughter receives while at school. The curriculum is amazing, and the teachers go above and beyond to make each day filled with learning and fun! There are so many options for extracurricular activities as they have a soft play room, outdoor areas for all ages, and a huge gym! And lastly, the management team is amazing! You can really tell how hard each member of the staff works to keep this school a clean, loving environment for your children!

This school is amazing. we have gone through two different preschools now, and we have finally found our match. my son learns so much every day and when i come to pick him up he doesn't want to leave! the soft play room and outdoor covered playgrounds are awesome, not to mention the HUGE gym!! the teacher's are so great with the kids, and the curriculum is sent home with you each month so you are proactive in your child's learning(it even gives you things to work on with your child that they're doing in class). they do art almost every day, which i LOVE, and it gets sent home every week! meals

My daughter started attending Oak Brook about two months ago. We love the school. The teachers in her class are so kind and patient with the kids. My daughter comes home excited to tell us about what she has learned. I like the easy way to check in on the kiddos through the app updates. I love the easy way to check my kiddo in and out. The school offers outside extracurricular activities to come in for you to sign up. Like martial arts and gymnastics. Fresh food serviced to the kiddos daily. Nothing canned, I love that.
We live right in the neighborhood behind the school. I’m glad they came

Both of my children ( ages 2 and 7) attend this school. I love being able to drop them off each morning and not have to worry about them. They have an amazing management team ! The communication from the teachers and front office is excellent. They even have an on site chef. She makes all the meals fresh each day. My son who is very picky eats all his food at school. These kids eat better than me! I could go on and on about how great this school is, but you should really check it out yourself. The tuition rated were even better than those of other local schools.

We love Greenville Montessori School! We had to switch schools in July 2016 and as a mom I feel like - I couldn't have made a better decision. My daughter has absolutely made improvements in her language development, her play structure and overall personality.
She is happy. I contribute this to the individual attention they give the children. I love how they get to leave the classroom to go to the gym, library and the multiple outside areas – they aren’t in the same room all day. The school is clean and classrooms are spacious and organized. I never feel like there is chaos – the teachers

It is sad to see the negative reviews that seem to be folks with very negative intent. We do not know the new owners well, but appreciate all they have done to make improvements to Greenville. Our teachers seem happier, and the school finally has a Director that is both knowledgeable in Montessori and cares about the kids and education quality. Our Daughter has excelled both socially and academically in the 3 years we have been at Greenville.
With the staff member that was let go in P3, after learning about why she was let go, and our own experience with the level of education in that class, I

My 2 children have attended Greenville Montessori for 5 years (my oldest) and 2 years (my youngest.) My oldest left GMS last year for public kindergarten and she was very much ahead of her peers due to the Montessori education she received. She knew how to read and write and she was very independent and confident. My toddler began in the infant room when she was 3 months old and I could not have asked for a better teacher than Ms. Jenny. I had absolute confidence leaving my baby with her. My children and I have loved every single teacher we have had an GMS! They all follow my children’s progress

We have been with Greenville for about 18 months now and I can say that the changes with ownership and management have been exactly what the school needed. I am not very involved at the school, but I do appreciate that communication with parents has greatly improved. Ms. Jay, the Director, is very knowledgeable and has addressed all my concerns. I also love the fact that the kitchen actually prepares fresh food instead of just heating frozen food. From an academics perspective, our older daughter is more than ready for Elementary, and would easily test in at 1st or 2nd grade! Our baby gets loving

Both my children have attended Greenville Montessori. Other reviews say it's a daycare it might have been in the past but no longer. Since the new owner came I see many changes. I saw many new Montessori materials in my child's class. The teachers are great! The administration really puts a lot of thought into which teacher is the right match for our child when she was ready to move in to a primary class. We are so glad to have our kids here and will recommend Greenville Montessori to our family and friends.

Honestly, if I could give more stars, I would. We have been at THREE other schools in Allen in the past year (obviously we are hard to please) and this one is everything we were searching for. The new owner is very easy to talk to and willing to go the extra mile for parents. The teachers seem happier under his leadership and that is everything to us. My kids teachers are extraordinary teachers. I pick up my kids at 3pm and each day the teachers are sitting at a table working with a child individually. This is not a daycare. My daughter was on the wait list at Imagine Academy and we were notified

I have been sending my kids here for over two years and I'm very happy with our experience. My oldest son has since gone off to kindergarten and thanks to the education he received here he was more than prepared and in fact excels at public school. My youngest son still attends and loves his teachers who I feel genuinely care about his well being. I know that when he is at school he is being nurtured which is all you can ask for when you leave your kids in someone else's hands for the day. As for the leadership of the school, I can't say enough about Ms. Sandra. Before she arrived, I was happy
