[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter has a similar profile, although she’s in prek-4. We’ve loved Maddux for her. They think outside the box and individualize their approaches to each student. After a terrible experience at a Montessori school last year, we moved from DC to Maryland so she could attend Maddux. I have no regrets. It’s been wonderful. [/quote]Could I ask why Montessori was a bad fit for PDA? [/quote] NP here. We steered clear of Montessori preschool for our ASD/ADHD/PDA kid because of how much agency kids are given. Without a very skilled Montessori teacher, we thought our kid would have stuck to their preferred activities and never come out of their comfort zone. We had success with a more structured, play-based preschool with high-skilled, high-warmth teachers. [/quote]
