Our son has been attending DAV Montessori and Elementary School since pre-K. His journey at DAV started on the virtual platform during COVID-19. We have been impressed ever since! Now, he is in third grade. We commute from Sugar Land daily. Every now and then, in the midst of busyness, a thought comes: Why do we drive so far each day? Why don’t we just switch to the zoned elementary school or another private school nearby? However, this thought of switching schools quickly disappears as we constantly observe the beautiful offerings at DAV. These offerings range from participating in havan, chanting shlokas, singing in English and Hindi, expressing through traditional arts, music, and dance, celebrating various festivals, and engaging in hands-on learning. Each annual day program at DAV fills us with pure joy and serves as a pillar reminder of the instrumental role this school plays in instilling the deep roots of values and morals. At DAV, we have found the best of both worlds on many levels—from cultural, language, spiritual, mental, and physical growth to stellar academics. The nurturing and supportive environment provided by the outstanding administrative staff and teachers further enhances the learning and growth experiences. This has been a priceless journey, and we look forward to continuing it as part of this wonderful community—it is so much more than school; it is a wholesome approach to learning and life! Yes, indeed, the long commute is more than worth it! We continue on with the sincerest gratitude for all who work hard each day with dedication and love to provide the best for all students at DAV!Surati FamilyRead more

My little sister went to DAVMES almost 25 years ago and she still remembers everything she learned, even the basics of reading Hindi. That made me realize that even though my son is just 4, what he learns are values he'll carry the rest of his life. In the last year it's been great to see how much he's connected with his culture, in a way that wouldn't be possible anywhere else. At DAVMES you feel like you are a part of a family. The teachers are very invested in the kids, always available to communicate to you, and regularly engage parents. The devotion and attention of the team is inspirational.

DAVMES is a hidden gem! So fortunate to have the best of both east and west culture in one school. What amazed me even more is when someone not of an Indian background chooses this school. It is truly the level of openness and wholehearted acceptance that comes from that Indian continent where multi religions coexist beautifully that people see and experience here and grow to love. Where else can you learn Hindi, Sanskrit slokas all the while celebrating Christmas and Thanksgiving! There is a great degree of time, detail and positive energy that is invested in this institution. Every single teacher and staff has this incredible love and attention towards each child, it truly feels like a family! I love that they focus on developing each child to their full potential rather than limiting education to just what is in the curriculum. Creative or out of the box thinking and projects are incorporated within the curriculum to make it more hands on. The student teacher ratio really allows for individualized attention to each student. We moved from Pearland to Richmond just to have this level of academic rigor with an emphasis on culture and character development and have never looked back! So blessed to have both of our kids attend school here!

DAVMES offers the highest quality education and a top tier environment where children are given the opportunity of reaching their best potential. Both of my children started by attending DAVMES from a Pre-K grade level. The teachers and the administration have proven to care about their roles beyond expectations. We only wish that DAVMES extended past 5th grade so that my children could continue being educated at this level.

We have two kids at DAVMES and our experience has been fantastic. We initially picked the school for our kids to have a Montessori education, combined with Indian culture and values. The level of personalized education kids receive is unmatched . The teachers are all amazing, and it shows with both academic achievement from kids as well as personal growth and development. Kids receive projects and opportunities to practice public speaking from a young age. The work ethic that is being ingrained at this age will benefit them greatly in the future.

I chose DAVMES for our daughter because of the excellent academic reputation of the school. I have also been impressed with the commitment of the faculty and staff. I believe that DAVMES is a great school for our daughter and will be sending our younger daughter starting next semester as well. DAVMES cultural education has helped our child develop a positive sense of self-identity. It has also helped her understand the importance of our history, roots and events that shaped our society. DAVMES has helped introduce our child to our diverse cultural heritage, Art, Music, Dance, Traditions and Festivals. DAVMES fosters our cultural awareness and appreciation. I am happy to recommend it to other families.

DAVMES allows children to pursue a balanced Montessori & elementary curriculum, incorporating a healthy appreciation for their Hindu heritage, while also keeping in step with the most cutting edge advances of the modern world. Undoubtedly, one of a kind in the United States, DAVMES combines the best of both worlds - laying a foundation for confident, resilient, and proud citizens of tomorrow! The staff, teachers & administrators here work with each child tirelessly, treating each as their own, in a loving atmosphere, allowing the child to blossom at his/her own pace. They are the pillars upon which the children succeed! The children are consistently stimulated in a supportive atmosphere, wherein the curiosity to know is fostered as a lifelong skill. In short, this is a unique school that is offering an experience rare to find in the entire North America. Stellar academics and global cultural exposure combined with a firm grounding in Hindu heritage is a sure recipe for the child's success!

I cannot begin to express my gratitude and love for DAV Montessori and Elementary School! Our son, Aryan, has grown in so many aspects and learned so much in the little time he has been attending the school. We absolutely love the environment for him to learn.

This is my kids 2nd year in DAV Montessori & Elementary School and I am glad that I made a right decision and gave them the best. Every day, they bring back home new words/national songs/Sanskrit slokas and they make us feel proud every moment.

Our son went to DAVMES for 5 years and it is one of the best school that we have come across. The professionalism of the director and the teachers is unbeatable. I have never come across any organization work so efficiently & smoothly. We did not have any issues during 5 years that itself says a lot about the school. The school offers a good blend of academics and Indian values, Yoga & Sanskrit. We highly recommend it.
