[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any LAMB families end up going to Truth? It’s an interesting option to continue Montessori beyond elementary. [/quote]

We are at lamb. Definitely not considering truth. Lamb is great but it is very easy for kids to slip through the cracks and avoid learning difficult subjects.

I just don’t think that’s smart for middle or high school.  [/quote]

We left LAMB after fourth grade because of this issue. My child was slipping through the cracks in areas that were not his strengths. Montessori requires a ton of executive functioning in order to learn at pace with your peers because you have to organize yourself more than in a traditional classroom. While I always found Truth intriguing, I would want to know how they are tracking kids carefully in all key subjects and jumping quickly to remediate areas kids fall behind in. You may not think this is an issue for your child if they are doing well in a traditional  school….but Montessori could create the issue. We had the opposite experience: issues disappeared once child was being required to work in all subjects in a traditional environment. [/quote]
