I was on the founding team of Guidepost Montessori, now the largest Montessori school network in the world I think (150 schools). Wild 8 year ride. I moved to board last year to focus on writing a book (on education, in progress). Not sure what is next. Too many ideas. Been mulling them a lot.

Generally Montessori schools run pretty far ahead of the things that people care about (math, language arts). If that isn’t the case it is extremely hard. You’ll end up only with alt-ed die hards.
