[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have know two kids who were kicked out a Montessori school after a month with the suggestion to evaluate them for special needs. Both went on to another preschool and later are doing fine in school; neither has a special need. The pediatricians and the a nearby preschool director both admitted that they have seen quite a few cases from this well know Montessori school. Is this a school specific thing (large class size) ? Or is Montessori school in general cannot handle certain type of typically developing but demanding kids?[/quote]

How ironic and disgraceful. Montessori began her observations and formed her first philosophies in order to help children with special needs, and sadly, this is something that I see a lot in certain schools. It confuses me to no end. I know of one large DC program that is a little crazy with their screening process, and so I've never had a desire to apply for work there. I wonder if it's the same school...

It's school specific, 100%. [/quote]
