Abstract/Notes: [...]most parents and their children are faced with the inevitability of leaving Montessori education at some point in their school careers, since the majority of Montessori schools serve children only through age 6, while fewer schools offer Elementary programs, and fewer still have Secondary offerings. [...]a 3-year multiage grouping is enormously challenging for teachers and schools, even more so for those schools, such as publicly funded programs, that are required to use high-stakes assessments. [...]sixth-grade studies are really daunting, even more so if one is trying to present them authentically, using hands-on materials, creating opportunities for autonomous learning, and assessing individual students' progress effectively. Because of all these pressures, teachers often do not advocate a 3-year grouping of fourth-, fifth-, and sixth-graders. In response to this problem, many schools choose to move their sixth-graders into the new Middle School program, justifying the shift because it provides a new multiage grouping, more students for the Middle School classroom, and an incentive for families to keep their children in the school. According to Stephen Covey (2006), you really do not know something until you can teach it.
