Dr. Lillard’s work includes studies such as “Montessori Preschool Elevates and Equalizes Child Outcomes” (2017) in which she discussed her findings that the Montessori model of education can help to close the achievement gap for low-income children. She has recently been named Co-Lead Investigator on a federally funded (Institute for Education Sciences) study of outcomes for children in public Montessori programs.
