Observation and Assessment
With Montessori instructional practices being naturally aligned with Next Generation Learning Standards and authentic assessments, YMA will apply for the NYSED Performance-Based Learning and Assessment Networks (PLAN) program in 2025-2026 when applications open again, with the ultimate goal of improved outcomes for all students.


Through this program implementation, Montessori programs will incorporate PBLA and instructional practices that use multiple measures to assess student learning.
