From Mark and Paula Munson; their son Alexander graduated MSBG last year from the sixth grade.
Alexander had a great summer vacation upon completion of his last year at the Montessori School. The traditional family week in the log cabin at Moraine State Park in western Pennsylvania was followed by an honors chorus experience at Otterbein College, a week at his grandfather’s house, and a three-week family road trip to the American west. Alex really wanted this picture of Devil's Hole to be included because he did a research report in Upper Elementary about it.
He had a relatively smooth transition to the Bowling Green Middle School, where he is the concertmaster of the 7th grade orchestra and plays first trumpet in the 7th grade band. He played in the OMEA Honors Orchestra and the BGSU Honors Band and was on the school Quiz Bowl team. Taking numerous written tests has been an adjustment, but he enjoys buying lunch in the school cafeteria and tracking his grades daily on the school’s website. His current classes include Science, Social Studies, English, Math, and Foreign Language Exploratory – French/Spanish.
“The hands on math at Montessori has really helped me with 7th grade math concepts.” -Alexander Munson
“I really appreciated the peaceful environment and individual attention that Alexander experienced at the Montessori School.” –Paula Munson
