Testimonials

“One World Montessori School has proudly featured the Marvegos® Art Program as part of the rich offering we provide for our students since1992.  Their "hands on" approach to introducing a large variety of media to young children is a perfect match with Montessori's independent, sensorial based curriculum.  We couldn't be more satisfied with this wonderful addition to our school day.”       
 --Rebecca Keith, Head of School, One World Montessori School (Santa Clara and San Jose)

“The Marvegos® art program provides fine art instruction and guidance while fostering each child’s own creativity.  Children are encouraged to embrace their different skills and unique perspectives, to love the process of creating artwork and to take pride in their end products.  It is a program to nurture the creative soul and empower the budding artist!  We love Marvegos®.”
--Wanda Whitehead, Head Teacher, Casa di Mir Montessori School (Campbell, CA)

 “At Milpitas Christian School we encourage the fine arts in all we do. That's why we are so pleased to offer The Marvegos® as an after school program. We believe art helps create well- rounded students.  Rita and her staff do a great job as they work individually with each student at their level and help them find the artist within.”
--Karen Lovejoy, Registrar/Office Manager, Milpitas Christian School (San Jose, CA)

I am proud to have Marvegos® Art Program in our school.  Their teachers teach the artistic process to our children.  They discuss elements of art and the tools, which can be used to produce different effects the child may want.  Their process promotes creativity and allows the child’s imagination to freely express itself.
