903.0. "Montessori schools" by BROKE::HEE () Tue May 14 1991 18:13

    Hi,
    	I am thinking of enrolling my son (2 yrs 5 months) in the 
    Stoney Brook Montessori School.  I would like to hear comments
    about the school.  I am impress with the director Alice Lee and
    like the non-pressured environment that the director presented to 
    me.  I went to a number of Montessori schools.  Most of them
    seems to stress academic excellence to the point that it seems
    like a rather stressful environment to learn in.
    
    	I like the Montessori approach of self-accelerated program where
    the kids are not grouped based on their age but rather by their interest.
    The kid can grow at the pace he/she feels comfortable with.  There are
    many subject areas available to him/her and he/she can explore which
    ever subject area that interest him/her.  I like this idea a lot.
    
    	Please comment on the Stoney Brook Montessori School.  Thanks.
