[quote=Anonymous]Columbia Baptist appears to be an excellent pre-school but I have read a few things that caught my attention from various review on DCUM. I read some Montessori proponents claim that kids coming from Columbia baptist won't be reading or writing where as Montessori students do by age 3. Further more they went on to state that there wasn't enough academic components and too much playing. This brings me to my next question. If the child is going to Fairfax County or Falls Church City public schools for kindergarten would they be over whelmed by all the extra school work? How did your child's transition from either a play based or Montessori school go? Part of my gut doesn't believe a lot of the Montessori hype but I am willing to hear what they have to offer and ultimately what is important is the child's happiness, they learn and the transition to Kindergarten. I also don't mind a religious component.[/quote]
