Understanding Equitable Access to Public Montessori Pre-K: A Case Study of Montessori Recruitment and Enrollment Practices
Available from: Child Trends
See More
Abstract/Notes: Ensuring equitable access to high-quality early education for families from all racial, ethnic, and income backgrounds is a critical component for addressing systemic racism and inequality within the public education system. This study examined one piece of this issue by investigating access to public Montessori pre-K, as well as barriers that may hinder equitable access. While many public Montessori pre-K programs report that students are admitted through a random lottery process, initial efforts to study these programs indicated that certain enrollment policies may create barriers to access. Potential barriers to accessing public Montessori pre-K include lottery priority status for siblings, neighborhood residents, and children of staff; a lack of targeted recruitment practices for families from underserved communities; and affordability. These barriers to access may disproportionally affect Black and Latino families and families facing poverty, who have unequal access to high-quality educational opportunities overall. The Montessori model was originally created to give children with learning challenges (e.g., children who exhibited concentration, attention, and discipline challenges) a high-quality educational environment where they could thrive. Given the origins of the Montessori pedagogy and existing disparities within the educational system, questions of equity should be at the center of policy development for accessing public Montessori pre-K.

Abstract/Notes: Maria Montessori, a doctor of medicine in Italy, employed herself in curing abnormal children, afterwards, turned to an educator. She was influenced partly by Itard and Seguin, and partly by Rousseau and Froebel. Recently arguments on Montessori method have resumed with the worldwide concern to develop early the powers latent within children. Montessori method is characterized by the concreteness which her theory can be rightly put into practice because her principles were established on the basis of her experiences in a "Children's House". Since the first criticism on her theory by kilpatrick, however, there have been arguments for and against her theory. Her educational theory, first of all, premised that the fundemental differences between children and adults must always be considered; unlike the case of adults with their development stopped, "preparing environment" required along the developmental stages of children must be given to them. She stressed, under this environment, the importance of the spontaneous activity by child without being interfered and of the role of teachers as his assistants only when help demanded. She discovered the phenemenon of concentration through children's sponta-neous interest in learning, and regarded such a situation reached as being normalized. She also considered the sensitive period, in which intellectual absorption is most remarkable, she said that unless a papticular ability was gained in the period, child would lose an opportunity of developing the ability. Though her educational theory and method has an important effect upon early childhood education, there are many problems awaiting solution. Therefore it is desirable that the questions are settled and new Montessori school based on Montessori method is developed.
