About Montessori school
Montessori education is based on the pedagogy of Maria Montessori. Children learn at their own pace, choose their own activities, and work with specially designed materials. The teacher observes and guides. Traditional grades are uncommon and progress is usually visible through portfolios.
Strengths

Keep in mind

- Transitioning to traditional secondary education can take adjustment
