[quote=Anonymous]I agree with the prior poster that Montessori schools have a lot of variety to them. The philosophy was developed for poor children, but here in the USA it's mainly rich kids whose parents can afford to send them. DC has some public schools that use the Montessori method, so not all are private. What I would say is that the AP-focused insane "normal" alternative is a mess. If I could do it all over again, I'd send my kid to Montessori or some other more child-centered school all the way through 12th grade in order to avoid the rat race. Hopefully, things will have changed by the time your child is in high school. I certainly hope so for everybody's sake. You owe it to yourself to explore this option, especially if they'd help pay. You may find that you like it once you compare it to the alternative. I'd avoid the weirdo Waldorf thing though.[/quote]
