East Baton Rouge Parish Dufrocq Montessori Magnet three-year old Pre-K lottery that is (wow, that's a mouth full). We applied in October and just found out that we were in on February 1st. Our best option for our childrens' education here in BR without paying for private schools is the Magnet Program. We love the Montessori style of teaching, so we applied at Dufrocq. An added perk is that the school will be totally renovated during the summer of '09. We're all excited for the new chapter we'll be facing in the fall. Ayden has a late birthday, so he'll be in pre-K for 2 years before he's technically in kindergarten. I say technically because his class consists of three, four, and five-year-olds (part of the Montessori approach is to learn in a family-like setting, having the older kids mentor the younger).

Awesome!!! I love how hands on Montessori teaching and learning is...way to go! Can you believe we have kids getting ready to go to school? We are so noy old enough.... ;)
NOT.....maybe I should go back to school!!!!
That's our only problem with settling down in Baton Rouge. The public school system SUCKS. We're paying taxes for these schools, so I don't want pay extra for private schools. That's mainly why we're thinking about joining the Denham gang.
Congratulations to Ayden!
That is awesome! So, Ayden going to two years of pre-k means he and Ainsly will be in the same grade at school - that's awesome! She'll be happy to have a friend in the same grade as her - she was already getting upset that her friends were in school and she wasn't - crazy girl!
I love LOVE love Montessori! As an assistant Montessori teacher for a few years, I definitely have a special place in my heart for Maria Montessori and her methods. This will be a wonderful experiance for Ayden AND for you. Congrats to all of you!
Hey...if you could, will you email me your address we are finally sending out LoLo's announcements to everybody. Thanks Stacy!
The Montessori program at Dufrocq is awesome! Son did great there for four years, then we moved him to an Academic Magnet to prepare him for Jr High.
Ayden is going to love it!
