READY--Five-year-old Darian Scott practices a fine motor skill game during a quiet period when most students are napping at the Rude Park Montessori preschool on Monday. Students are allowed to explore the classroom independently at their leisure which is part of their innovative 'Ready to Succeed' program. Darian was able to grab the tools he wanted right off the shelf. DENVER POST STAFF/GLENN ASAKAWA (Photo By Glenn Asakawa/The Denver Post via Getty Images)
