If your Montessori school is not full, this is for you…
Too many traditional-school parents don’t know what Montessori is, and even many Montessori moms and dads think it’s “just for little kids” so they pull their children early.
“Montessori is good for babies but I want my son to do more than finger paint all day.”
It is time for change. It’s time to help caring parents understand Montessori, to really “get” it, so they are begging to enroll — and stay — in your school.
Today, for a number of reasons, students in conventional schooling are struggling more than ever, with boredom, misery, a lack of desire to learn. And their parents are becoming increasingly, and painfully, aware of this reality.
Because of this, Montessori educators and administrators have an historic opportunity to show our prospective parent communities that a transformative alternative exists for children.
If your Montessori school is not full for 2023-24 — yet you genuinely believe in your program — reach out to discuss hosting a parent talk to increase enrollment NOW.
Or share this popular ‘What is Montessori?’ video with your larger community (it currently has over 500,000 views):
Ultimately, we are all in this together. So let’s make our novel new school year the one in which Montessori becomes the talk of everyone’s town! 🌍
To our future,
Jesse McCarthy
