Important items to remember:
Science Fair volunteers are needed on 17 and 18 February 2016. Maria Montessori Academy will be having our annual science fair for the 4th and 5th graders on the 17th and for the 6th and 8th graders on the 18th of February. This is always an exciting time for our students and we need your help to make this a fun and memorable event. We need parent volunteers to help with a variety of tasks from set-up/clean-up, judging, judging coordinators, score keepers and snacks. No experience necessary for most of the tasks. Please contact Paula Dugan at pdugan@mariamontessoriacademy.org or your child’s teacher if you would like to volunteer.
Attention Students:
We will be having 6th grade students come over the Jr. High to shadow one of you in order to learn what the Jr. High is about. On the link below students may pick up to three students to mentor, but in the end the situations will be determined by Ms. Emily. Note that if there is an absolute situation and a student desires one mentor-ship in particular, they should speak with Ms. Emily face to face.

We promote a healthy classroom environment for each student with as minimal distractions as possible. As holiday treats flow throughout the season, we encourage students to be mindful of what they bring to school; for example, soda, sugary foods, and energy drinks are to be enjoyed at home rather then during school hours. Also, in the junior high we encourage students to provide their own snacks. These snacks times are an excellent opportunity to provide a healthy snack. Healthy snacks should always be finger foods without noisy, bulky packaging. We are seeing a lot of ‘chips’ which are noisy and greasy for our technology and materials. Most of the students are hungry before lunch, and if they are hungry enough, they will eat what is put in front of them. Let’s put healthy choices in their hands. Please reference our wellness policy for any questions you may have.
