8. I went through the 3rd grade
Generally it was a favorable experience, though it's not for everybody.

The Montessori approach allows kids to sort of figure out how to do things on their own, and then ask for help. Classroom lecturing is a rarity. Creativity is rewarded. Group projects are common. It also tends to attract children of liberal parents.
