I heard about the school from my uncle and brother. My uncle’s children graduated from RisingSun Montessori, and my brother still has children here. They told me it was the best school around especially in terms of performance, and so I decided to enrol my children here. I have not regretted it. Comparing RisingSun Montessori to where my kids moved from, I notice they have improved significantly. This improvement is in terms of discipline and academics. My children even speak better English now.
My child started RisingSun from its Pre-school. I found out about the school via contact with the Principal as far back as 2007. One of my children is a graduate of the school and the other is at the Primary level. My experience here has been very healthy. My children are academically good, the extra-curricular activities of the school built their confidence levels, and the excursions have enhanced their social thinking. The ability of the school to develop the total being of the child is one of the main reasons I am still at RisingSun. Besides, RisingSun is notable for its good academic performance
A friend introduced me to RisingSun. Knowing the previous school her child attended, I saw an improvement in her child after being enrolled at RisingSun Montessori. The improvement was academic, and her child’s attitude towards learning was much better than previously. Being here has been fabulous. I admire the teacher-parent and student-teacher relationships. My child has also improved academically, and not only academically but generally in all aspects of her life. All children are not equal but I am satisfied with what I have seen so far. There is no doubt that this school is distinct. I will not say there has been one specific wow moment because every day in the school is a wow moment. To sum it up, I have recommended and will continue to recommend the school anytime.
I started RisingSun from Crèche, and I am presently at the JHS level. My time here has been nice. Group work activities have taught me how to work together with others. The teachers are interactive, and allow students to express themselves and share their ideas. All these make me like my stay at the school.

I have worked at RisingSun Montessori school for approximately three years. My reason for joining the Dome branch was to improve my career path. I will recommend the school as a workplace for individuals willing to grow. RisingSun Montessori gives one opportunities to learn more on the job. The supervision serves as an avenue to know where one falls short in their job and improve. One’s ability to rise up the career ladder is also not mired.
For the past six and half years, I have been employed at this school. The work here is challenging but exciting. The highlight of my experience here is when parents are appreciative of the academic improvements of their children due to the school’s efforts. RisingSun is noteworthy in how we raise our students to be confident and explore their creativity through activities like drawing and acting. I was in awe when parents were invited for a medical screening coordinated independently by students. I will not hesitate to recommend this school as a workplace for teachers. Its challenging atmosphere builds you as an individual. As a teacher here, you are not limited as tasks go beyond the classroom. Modern approaches to teaching are also brought on board to build teachers. Having won the best school in the entire district for the BECE previously, I am pleased to be an employee here.
I am at the Primary school level. My RisingSun experience has been excellent. I like how teachers take their time to explain a topic to you. For example, in my Math class there was a time I did not understand a topic well and so my teacher stopped and started explaining it all over again. The teacher used his own method to teach and did not rely on only the Math textbook’s method. Taking ballet lessons at RisingSun Montessori has also made me more confident. One thing I like about the school is its friendly teachers.
I have children at the Pre-school and Primary levels. Both started from the Pre-school. My wife and I discovered the school in our community, made enquiries and realized it fit our preferences. The neatness of the compound sold me. RisingSun stands out not only in appearance, but also in the BECE. The extracurricular activities are worth mentioning. Color themed days, field trips, and adherence to the history of Ghana are school activities that surprised me. Color themed days make students appreciate themes the school associates to those colors. We did not have those in our time in school. The field trips aid even my young children to wholly appreciate what they are taught in class. History lessons strengthen their knowledge of who we are as Ghanaians. RisingSun has met my expectations, and I believe they will exceed my expectations as my children progress through the school. I recommend this school.

As a parent, I attest to RisingSun’s fantastic academic performance over the past years. For the BECE, most students have gained admission to their first choice schools. Teachers go the extra mile to make sure students comprehend lessons and keep them on their toes. Teachers are also willing to update parents on the progress of their children, and address arising issues. I am particularly enthused by the school’s remediation program, and know a lot of parents benefit from it. It is for students not up-to-task academically to catch up. Also, I like how the school gives its students just enough homework to keep them up to task. Moreover, students are able to build good bonds with their friends as everyone knows each other by name. This promotes their social development. My experience here has compelled me to recommend the New Bortianor campus to a friend. I will keep recommending RisingSun.
RisingSun Montessori school’s BECE grades impressed me and motivated me to enroll my children in the school. I have never regretted this decision. The school has time for its students and addresses its parents’ issues expediently. As at now, the school has met my expectations and I concur to the fact that it stands out. My friend enrolled her child, who is not a student of RisingSun Montessori, to the COVID-19 e-learning program the school rolled out. My friend has been sold by the performance of her children, and the efficacy of this program. She has even proceeded to enroll her children at the school. I see RisingSun Montessori going higher and higher. I keep recommending the school to my friends and they in turn enroll their children.
I have been a teacher at the Pre-school level of RisingSun Montessori Lashibi for 2 years. The students here are good and know what they are about. All in all, RisingSun Montessori has a conducive environment for both teachers and students. The school offers training for its teachers to make an impact in their field. Similarly, there are resource for every teacher to assist this impact. A positive highlight as a staff at this school is the empathetic nature of management towards its staff. I wonder why any teacher will not want to work here.
Currently at the Junior High school level of the Lashibi campus, I have been impressed by the exciting experience offered by this school. The RisingSun setting is totally different, and infuse new ideas especially for its extracurricular activities. The school instills moral values in students right from the onset. These include respect, service, and humility. Students are also encouraged to be confident and unique in all aspects. I can attest to this as through RisingSun Montessori, I have been made the first anti-child labor ambassador for Ghana. It happened when the school attended an event at the Accra Conference Center. This position has seen me go to the United Nations for the International Child Day, co-launch the first anti-child labor day in Ghana, and conduct door-to-door campaigns on the effects and solutions to child labor. RisingSun has been a major role in the accomplishment of my goals as far as the first years of my education is concerned.
