The Auction Meeting Minutes are now available for viewing here. Please take a moment to read through all the new ideas we have in store for this year’s event! If there is any area you think you can help with just let Margery know. As always, your feedback, input and ideas are welcome.

We would like to invite you to stop by the school on Thursday, December 15 after 8:45AM for an informal coffee hour with Ginny, our Head of School. We’ll have conversations about Montessori, your child’s classroom and how it all ties together. So stop by for a few minutes and bring your questions! This will be an ongoing meet up, so if you can’t make it on the 15th we hope you can join us next time.

During the month of November, a group of Lower Elementary students in the after school program worked on a mural project titled, “Constructing Community.” The students worked collaboratively as artists, designers, architects and city planners. Together they createad a cut paper cityscape inspired by their own communities.
The mural is featured in the school entry hall. The next time you are in the building, be sure to check it out, along with many of the other great art projects students have created around the halls!
