	Train more Montessori teachers at three educational levels, including a new offering of the birth-to-three training. Establish a lab school focusing on underserved children, including a Montessori toddler program a program not available at most schools. Outdoor learning environments accessible from each classroom so the role of nature becomes an integral part of learning, leading to an understanding of ecology and our responsibility as stewards of our world. Open the first international Montessori museum in this country for research and development and as a national exhibition of the life and pedagogy developed by Dr. Maria Montessori. Offer parent/infant classes to support and nurture this most critical period of life. Although there has been significant pre-school activity nationwide, there has been insufficient focus on the birth-to-three level. Provide on-site parent education, as well as home consultations. Provide professional development services and community outreach programs. Conduct controlled outcome studies on the children at the school to demonstrate the contributions Montessori education makes to early childhood education. Create and nurture alliances with other child advocacy and neighborhood groups.
