Montessori Moment

 

People who have been touched by Montessori comprise a growing and gloriously diverse group.

Its numbers include teachers and the educators who guide them; students and the parents who ask them about their day. Former students are still Montessori People, because, as some have told us, Montessori is for life.

Montessori People in the public eye often demonstrate qualities Montessori seeks to nurture. For example, consider Montessori alumni Sergey Brin and Larry Page, the creative thinkers who founded Google, and Jeff Bezos, who founded Amazon. CLICK HERE to read more.

DECEMBER EVENTS

SCHOLASTIC BOOK FAIR

The Scholastic Book Fair offers an excellent "buy and take" book selection and it raises some great funds for our school, including the great perk of new books for our classrooms and library. Cash, check and credit card accepted.

We do need some volunteers to be cashiers. Being a book fair cashier means helping customers find items of their interest, straightening the shelves, and following the checkout procedures. To select a shift, CLICK HERE: http://vols.pt/7ShwtN for the online volunteer form.
