Welcome Students and Parents

First of all...WELCOME to the school year 2012-2013! It is going to be a wonderful year!

Please make sure and check the various websites listed on this blog, including the school website and the MPTO (Montessori Parent-Teacher Organization) Blog, so you can have all the latest information for the school year.

Mark your calendar for the Open House scheduled for Thursday, August 23, from 1:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. This is a great time to bring your school supplies, meet your teachers and complete the necessary paperwork for the coming year. Remember, once all the paperwork is complete, you will receive this year's spirit t-shirt!

Also, please make a plan to attend Beautification Day, Saturday, August 25, from 9:00 a.m. to noon. This is a fun time to work together to make the campus beautiful for the first day of school. The time you give to this activity goes toward your volunteer hours for the school year! So, bring your shovels, rakes, work gloves, and good cheer...it will be a great day to work together! Parents, if you can attend, wonderful! If not, you will be missed. Either way, please remember, we will need volunteers for various activities throughout the year -- WE NEED YOU!

As you can see in the countdown clock in this blog's right sidebar, the time is fast approaching! Get excited for the adventures which await you this year. We will see you soon!
