Montessori schools are so weird. I'm convinced they're mostly buzzwords to get rich parents to send their kids there - at least around here. I know a couple of teachers and all of them say that the Montessori schools around us don't actually follow most of the philosophies of Montessori.
In our area they seem to be for over-achievers. Want your 4 year old to learn to read, write, and do math? Send them to a Montessori. At least, that's the reason all the parents I know send them there.
- em-bee 5y agothe problem is that the name "montessori" is not protected, and schools take advantage of that. so you have to look closely if the teachers are actually trained and certified by one of the training schools that actually provide proper montessori training, and whether the classrooms have the proper environment.
