My two boys are now very successful high school students — and their Montessori background is largely responsible. They attended the Montessori Charter School of Flagstaff from very young ages, and when they graduated from the middle school, they were definitely ready for high school. Although I had been concerned about their transitions from the smaller Montessori Middle School to the larger public high school, both turned out to be very smooth and actually quite amazing. They took with them from the Montessori system confidence, leadership, and organization skills that certainly are contributing to their many successes.
