[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are some low-tech privates?[/quote] Most Montessori schools are low tech, with rare exceptions. Most Catholic elementary schools are low tech, but there can be some variation. In all cases, make a short list of candidate schools and then schedule a visit to each school.[/quote] Low tech doesn’t mean academically rigorous. The catholic elementaries in my area aren’t low tech, maybe slightly lower tech than public, but they still utilize tons of Ed tech, don’t teach cursive, etc. Montessori and Waldorf are low tech- but school depending, they can be lacking academically, in favor of the “progressive” education: social justice projects, outdoor education (basically a recess free for all), knitting, etc. Which is lovely- but you will then have to supplement heavily for math and reading and core subjects at home [/quote]
