Wife (no pics) and I are looking into possibly send our daughter to this school when she is old enough.
Anyone have any good or bad experiences with it?
Thanks in advance!

I have my 3 year old in a Montessori school right now. Kid can already do simple multiplication. The teaching methods are legit. However in BR YMMV.

We did Montessori school when my daughter was in pre school age group. It was a very well run school and I believe is a great way for kids at that age to learn. We then shifted into a traditional private school education in grade 2. I felt it was the right move at that point in her life and education.

Arent they kinda free range hippie schools where the kids learn by “expressing themselves?”

You're going to get answers all over the map when asking about school choices.

Here's the question that always cuts to chase, though: How many went on to play Major League Baseball?

When you can't get a straight response, you have your answer.

Son started Montessori at 3 years old. Stayed in the program until 6th grade. He was almost 2 grades ahead of his 6th grade classmates. We chose not to move him ahead.
The best foundation for his future was having Montessori education. He is now a senior in CE on full scholarship.

Thanks for all the info. I knew I would get a lot of answers from a lot of different perspectives, and it helps a lot. Have no idea if that is the route we will go, but I just wanted some information on it.
Thanks!

My youngest went to Montessori preschool . Two things stand out- her table manners became IMPECCABLE from then on and she skipped kindergarten because she was a total whiz. She’s 15 and a junior now and I just took her on a Daddy daughter date and her table manners are incredible and errybody else is an uncouth Savage, lol.

Make sure the instructors are Montessori certified.
