[quote=Anonymous]Montessori schools explicitly teach letters and reading, and use manipulatives to teach math—all paced to the individual child. Reggio follows the children’s collective interests, empowering their curiosity and collaboration. Your child will most likely learn to read in K if you don’t teach them. Montessori art will likely be prescriptive and use typical kid supplies. In Reggio children work with heavy clay and beautiful natural materials. GMS has rolling admissions and few large events. It’s a less intense parent community and you will rarely be part of your child’s school day. St. John’s can be quite competitive and feel snootier—and you will be welcomed into the school in more ways (but much less than pre-Covid). GMS teachers focus on different age groups and the school takes 18 month olds. St. John’s teachers loop with the kids and children must be 2.5. Both wonderful places. I personally do not think highly of Little Folks but many parents are happy—especially those gunning for BVR. [/quote]
