Nor do I know how closely tied this Montessori school is with the world-wide network of Montessori schools. I had a thought on the absence of a U.S. delegate. Here in the U.S.A., public officials may have a policy/directive of not appearing to specifically support what is a large, privately funded school. Emphasis is still placed on trying to support and improve the public school system here (which is a whole "nuther" story). This does not detract, however, from the laudible achievements of the Lucknow school network depicted here. Our children attended the public school system here and our grandchildren are attending private schools in the Waldorf system. I am happy to say that the Waldorf system works very hard as well to provide an integrated life skills oriented education, with a good degree of ecological and world view emphasis. Our experience in the public school in this area was that over the past couple of decades, although there was not an overt emphasis on these issues in the curriculum, there was awareness. Our participation as parents, and projects chosen by ours and other children, as well as teachers' interest in improving their students' global awareness, have placed a growing importance of the place of these topics in the curriculum. The efforts of the CMS and all schools in this area is to be appreciated and applauded for the future of our children and our world. I had no idea this organization was so massive.
