[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PG County has intentionally created a model built on scarcity so they honestly can (and will) do whatever when it comes to speciality programs. It’s become normalized in such a bizarre way. High performing districts and most private schools allow tours. Just want to affirm (as someone also in education) not allowing tours is in fact crazy.

A lot of specialty programs do offer tours, especially the high schools.  ERHS, Northwestern, Flowers, and Academy of the Heath Sciences offer tours.  College Park Academy has an open house and I was able to get a tour of Parkdale by contacting the IB coordinator.
I know that Kenmoor Middle and Capitol Heights Elementary (TAG schools) offer tours too.  I have seen other open houses/tours at several of the immersion schools.

But the Montessori schools often have waitlists in the hundreds, especially for Pre-K, so they have no reason to do it.

And for the OP, it is not a true Montessori according to several parents I know.  There is a lot more structure.

PGCPS has expanded the specialty programs so much that the only one that is really hard to get into is and CPA at elementary and Montessori.  A lot of people get slots at more than one school and need to make a choice.
