What Makes Us Great
In 1998, the BASD school board approved offering a Montessori option. BASD is one of only a handful of public school systems in the state to offer Montessori. Physician Maria Montessori developed the system of learning in 1907. Montessori is a different approach to education, with an emphasis on learning how to learn: observing life, listening, looking for patterns, making connections, and reflecting on how things fit together and work. Students master the core curriculum: reading, writing, and mathematics. Montessori is a program that meets state and national standards, using different materials and methods than the traditional setting.
