[quote=Anonymous]My son attends Robert Goddard Montessori and is in pre-K. The school gets smaller at the middle school level. As time goes on, people move or change schools, so there is attrition. I've heard generally positive reviews from friends with older kids. By middle school, they are pretty focused on preparing them to be able to transition to high school, with many families trying to be ready to test into Roosevelt... so I think the Montessori-ness of the school probably wanes at 7th and 8th grade, as mainstreaming to high school is on the horizon. Something nice I've heard from other parents is that the middle schoolers are kind to each other ... they help the younger kids and are aware of their leadership status in the school. They have all been in school with each other since they were 3 or 4, so it seems to moderate some of the painful behavior of that age group. [/quote]
