[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another new Lee family here... Still thinking if we would stay at Lee if we get off the wait list at Stokes or ITS... Could Montessori parents tell me how would a very outgoing and loud child like those 3 hours of "work" that kids do every day in Montessori classroom? I am a bit concerned if he will like it! He is used to jumping and playing and running and singing  with his friends at daycare. Is that even allowed in Montessori? Those are just some concerns I have. [b]Would you guys pick Lee over ITS? [/b]But I am still pretty stoked to get into Lee! [/quote]

There are at least two current families who have done exactly that- choose Lee despite having sibling preference at ITS.

At Lee. Yes one of which I know and they wanted to keep their young one in Montessori because that is where they came from and they thought it would make for an easier transition. Ultimately they are moving sibling to IT (I think this year). I wouldn't base a decision from what other families do because we don't know their motives or reasons. I would try as much as I could to assess the two schools and get feedback from parents about respective schools. No point in putting schools against each other as it's rare families can give you their opinion about each school from personal experience. [/quote]

PP asked whether people would pick Lee over ITS and it's clear that at least two families have done (and both are staying at Lee this year BTW).  Is it relevant to anyone else's decision?  Probably not, but it does answer the question.  There are always any number of "motives or reasons" that people pick one school over the other and they are all individual.[/quote]
