Since LAMB is montessori, there are mixed classes (Pk3-K; 1-3; 4-5). At SD there are 5 primary (pk3-k) classes. Missouri has 2 or 3 I think. |
Sorry it frustrates me that people sign up for Montessori having no clue what it entails and those who want it are stuck low on all the waitlists |
PP here, that feeling makes perfect sense. We don't know that the OP even applied this year, though, let alone got in ahead of both of us (my kid is low-50's WL). So this is a good opportunity for some much-needed education re the Montessori model. Also, while I share your frustration, no one promised us free Montessori just because we want it badly. In fact, pre-K funding is specifically targeted to kids who most help because their parents can't, won't or don't have access to other quality options. Just some perspective you might want to consider. I find it helps to relieve the stress of this arbitrary process. And going by your mere presence and expertise here, your kid is going to thrive no matter what. |
Tough crowd. I know how Montessori works and that they are mixed aged classrooms. I was using the term 'pk' loosely and know that encompasses pk3 pk4 and k, I just didn't think I needed to spell that all out in my post. So, maybe I should re-phrase it to how many 'mixed age' classes are at each campus? |
I'm sorry PP. |
Currently they have 3 classes at MO and 4 classes at SD |
