Abstract/Notes: Dr. Maria Montessori was the first woman in Italy to receive a medical degree. While working with handicapped children, she developed educational methods that allowed them to pass national proficiency tests. With this success, she then generalized her techniques to other young children, and the method came to be known as the Montessori Method of education. This paper addresses the history of the Method's arrival and implementation in America, and the future outlook of the Method in the public sector given recent educational trends. Using the historical research method, material was compiled, verified, organized, and synthesized from hundreds of primary and secondary sources to create a coherent depiction of the Montessori movement in America from 1912 until 2005.
