This program has been such a rich and fun experience for my children. The husband and wife that own this program have a Montessori style approach while welcoming different education styles to their program. What's been amazing about this program is that is it indeed a community! There program is so diverse, and inclusive. As a military family it's very important that we are apart of an enrichment program that is inclusive to our daughter who is autistic. Very supportive and knowledgeable program! We love it!

My kids and I love Rocky Mountain Enrichment. They cannot wait to go each week. Alli has a very special talent of leading the group and focusing on each kiddo as an individual, all in one class. We are very glad we found this homeschool pod!
