[quote=Anonymous]My child went to Montessori for 8 years from pre-k to the equivalent of 6th grade. It was amazing. People really have to check if the "Montessori School" has proper certification and Montessori trained teachers. Kids in Montessori are reading and doing math before K. We thought the kids were on prozac or something...when we visited 2 year olds -- they were all sitting, eating, talking and just having a really nice time together. There were about 25 in a class with 2 or 3 teachers and it was a wonder. I wish I had a picture. I am biased but I found Montessori much more loving than traditional elite private schools. Our daughter had done fantastically well thanks to her Montessori education. Kids sang in their own plays and danced and cheered each other on. For the ADHD questions -- I would ask the respective schools. Some Montessori Schools will take ADHD kids -- some wont. Sometimes the work is too difficult for certain kids whether they are ADHD or not.[/quote]
