Why is the three-year cycle important in Montessori?
To receive the full benefits of a Montessori education, a child who enrolls should remain in the program for 3 years or more. Each step of a childs development and learning from the time he/she enters the Montessori classroom serves as a solid foundation for the next. The child who does not finish the program will never experience the same benefits, joy and satisfaction of having reached the end.
