Continued Parent Education - Montessori in the Home
2022-01-13
Have you ever wondered why your child does things at school that they don’t do at home? Our experts will present different ways in which your home can be set up to mirror the Montessori classroom environment, and the positive effects that this will have on your child’s development. Come and learn how you can set up areas in your home so your child can be as independent at home as at school. We will give you tips for setting up areas in the bathroom, kitchen, living room, bedroom, and even outdoor space.

Silence and Discovery: The Montessori Journey
2022-02-05 08:00 - 12:00
The Montessori Journey is a powerful and emotional event for many parents and staff. Many of the adults who are involved in the Academy did not attend a Montessori school as a child. Although you can read about Montessori philosophy, attend parent nights, and observe in the classroom, it can be difficult, at times, to really understand the experience that the child has every day at school in a Montessori classroom. The Montessori Journey provides an opportunity for dedicated adults to explore the entire continuum of the school and experience firsthand, just like the children, the amazing things that an authentic Montessori program has to offer.
This half-day event includes a light breakfast and refreshments. Childcare is not provided.
