Educational Journeys, Raleigh

The Children's House, Lower Elementary, and Upper Elementary classes all run in three year cycles (Follow the Child Montessori also offers a Toddler House for children 14 months through three years). In Children's House, Lower and Upper Elementary, concepts are presented to children during the three years they spend in any one classroom environment. Holding true to the observations and practices of Dr. Maria Montessori, students at Follow the Child Montessori School are encouraged to work through the curriculum at a pace that is appropriate to each child. Some students may master portions of the curriculum while continuing to practice skills in other areas. Other students, however, may master all of these concepts in a three year cycle. These students would then be offered lessons that continue to challenge their growing capabilities.
