I wonder how long the wait list will be from this school?

Strangely, I haven't heard about this from anyone else.

Elon, you've gone from a media hero to ... who cares, I still like you.

Ad Astra Montessori School

Is this big news outside of Bastrop?

A ping out to the Texas Ping list, founded by Windflier.

Another special Texas summer edition for your perusal.

As always, please FReepmail me if you want on or off the Texas Ping list.

Blessings, and stay cool!

Wait list, like hell. Musk will set up a local chain of Montessori schools to accommodate the demand, and then, with success in hand, will take it nationwide and revolutionize early childhood education.

They will immediately be accused of not being diverse enough.

Sounds good. Musk is a very interesting guy with a lot of common sense.

But where will he find enough qualified teachers?

Certainly not from the teachers colleges.

They are mostly good at indoctrinating young ladies in group think and teaching them how to drink.

Good point, and I imagine Musk has that covered in some way. Since Red State Texas has teacher certification alternatives to teacher colleges, he ought to be able to attract the necessary talent and get them certified.

FYI to all: For those interested, Bastrop is 30 miles SE of Austin. One of Musk’s operations, The Boring Co. is located there. Fast growing town these days.

Yup. Also for not helping the little kids decide if they want to be a boy or a girl, or figure out their pronouns. Not to mention not teaching the little ones all about sex, because that is what is needed to advance their prospects.

All these past many centuries, we did not have fluid pronouns, gender change, and sex education. How do we destroy civilization?!

Half my grandkids go to government school
Half my grandkids go to Montessori school

Both are doing well, but I’m most impressed with Montessori education.

They’ve created a passion for learning and a skill set of math and reading far ahead of the government schools.

Great foundation, but the school only goes through to 6th grade.

The public schools need to be taken on full boor and shown how it should be done.
