Charter schools are publicly funded and are not private schools. They are open to all students, are committed to improving public education, demonstrate a record of student achievement, and have specific educational missions and focuses.
Charter schools are public schools created by a group of parents, teachers, or community leaders who see an educational need in their community and want to meet that need. To operate, charter founders must submit an application for approval by the State Charter School Board or the board of a school district. Like other public schools, charter schools serve students from kindergarten through 12th grade.
The Montessori Method was developed by Dr. Maria Montessori, one of the first female physicians in Italy. Her early specialty was in Psychiatry with a special interest in Education. Her observations led her to question the current methods of teaching. Using scientific observation and experience gained from her earlier work with young children, in 1900 Maria designed learning materials and a classroom environment that fostered the children’s natural desire to learn and provided freedom for them to choose their own materials. The children in Maria’s programs thrived, exhibiting concentration, attention, and spontaneous self-discipline. Over a century later, Dr. Montessori is considered one of the 3 pillars of progressive education. The Montessori method focuses on developing the whole child, using hands-on materials, intrinsic motivation and practical life skills.
A fundamental truth permeates Montessori’s work: children are desperate to learn! However, Montessori schools do not assign traditional homework. Dr. Montessori believed that if we do not dictate the work of the child in class, then it does not make sense to dictate the work they choose at home. Therefore, traditional homework is kept to a minimum. Children spend all day in the classroom learning and need their afternoons and evenings to pursue their personal interests, interact with their families and relax.
