Back to School Night

Back to school night is this week!  It is from 6:30-7:30.  If you are a level 1 parent or new to our school, it is highly advisable that you attend, so you can see our classroom, get to know our procedures, and ask any questions.  I will be there too, along with Ms. LaVonna and Ms. Anna.  Come at 6:30 to look around and ask questions.  We will begin our overview of the classroom around 6:45pm

Race for the Redwoods 5K!  Support Our 6th Graders!

We have our annual 5K coming up soon!  Come support our 6th graders field trip to the Redwoods this coming spring!  Please see the registration form below and turn it in to our office!  The 5K will be September 13th (Wednesday) and the race begins at 4:00pm.

Call for Parent Volunteers!

I will be needing some parent volunteers to put together the student’s Math and Language binders.  I am updating the files I created last year for their language binders and should have them ready by the end of this week.  I will be picking up one of the student’s Math and Language binder, so I can make a master and anyone who would like to help will know how to put them together.  Please email me directly at kparsons@mariamontessoriacademy.org or you can let me know at back to school night on Thursday if you would like to help.  Date TBD the week of the 8th.  Time will commence after school, starting at 3:30pm.  The more helpers we have, the faster everything will go.

Home Projects

Every year, I send out a home projects schedule.  I will be working on this while home and the first one will be in November, right before Thanksgiving break.

Hello!

Ms. Anna has directed you to our classroom snack sign up for the year!

You can also find the snack sign up to the right of our blog under the category “Snack Sign Up”

Please, please remember your date(s) you sign up for.  Throughout the year we would have some parents forget and so our students would go hungry in the morning.  Thank you so much!

 

Cheers!

Welcome Back!!

Welcome back students and families!
I am so excited to start this new school year off with your students. I have missed all our veteran students and cannot wait to see our new recruits! For those of you who don’t know me, I am Ms. Anna and I will be filling in for Ms. Kaley while she has a little R&R with baby Marvel (probably the cutest this on this planet FYI). I can feel the anticipation building through the school as we are all scurrying to get our classrooms ready for Monday. I know the students are also probably getting those butterflies building a little bit, so let’s do our best to work together to make this a wonderful transition back to school.

Just as a reminder, New Student Orientation (incoming level 1’s and any new level 2’s or 3’s) will be this Friday from 1-1:45 PM. Please drop your students off and direct them to Ms. LaVonna who will be holding a big yellow sign with “Ms. Kaley” on it.

School starts Monday the 18th at 8:30 and the school doors open at 8:15. School will be ending at 1:00 every day that week so please don’t forget! 

Below is the link to a We Join In snack sheet. Please make an effort to sign up!

Again I am so very excited for this new year. It is such a privilege to work with your children and get to know their individual personalities blossom.
Thanks for all you do!
