Educational Models / Curiculum

I will try to link to some good websites on this topic, because it is a doozy and I cannot cover it here adequately.  Besides, I'd really just be plagiarizing a lot of these sources anyhow.

I have found four or five major Educational Models that Arlington private schools seem to fit within:
Montessori
Waldorf
Reggio Emilia
Classical
Christian/A Beka

Note that, in general, Montessori Waldorf Reggio Emilia and Classical educational models are not necessarily secular or un- non- or anti-Christian.  Sometimes you will find a Christian Montessori school, for example.  Alas, not in Arlington.  The nearest I could find is in Chantilly (Kidslovemonarch.com)

Links to come.
