My daughter started in Montessori School at eighteen months of age in Austin, Texas, following in my footsteps of a wonderful and creative learning environment. One year later, here in Palm Coast, Florida, there is not a qualified, accredited Montessori School. It’s just a temporary hiccup in the grand scheme of things.

I can’t speak highly enough of Montessori education. However, just because a school puts a sign out front and calls itself Montessori, it does not mean that it is a quality Montessori environment. Not all schools are created or operated equally!
