[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry to hear that. We found that for our child's special needs, the Montessori environment was absolutely wrong. I'd be interested to see how push-in services would compliment the independence model of Montessori - they do seem somewhat in conflict.

If I had a nickel for every professional who's said "Oh, you know where you should check out...this school called Creative Minds...," I'd have enough to buy off someone in the central office to overcome the impossible lottery odds of getting in.[/quote]

We also found Montessori to be an awful fit for our son, but don't let Montessori parents hear you say that or they'll shit themselves thinking you're insulting their precious "methodology."  And I hear you on CMI!  Yes, I would LOVE to get into CMI.  I'd pay tuition for CMI.  But no such luck (although we are very happy at another charter similar to CMI).  Also, don't ever tell a CMI parent that the school's original mission was tailored towards SN children.  They will get very insecure over the idea that their snowflake is enjoying an environment designed with SN in mind.     [/quote]
