The weather for Saturday looks great - 78 degrees and sunny! It's the perfect day for a festival and I hope to see everyone there. We will set up in the Courtyard, just behind the arrival and departure pavilion. The festival starts at 10am and wraps up around noon.
Children collect a passport when they arrive and, as they are visiting and taking in each classroom's country display, they collect a flag stickers for every country. The Nova community will have a Microeconomy table with hand-crafted wares that are sure to be great holiday gifts. We are Paypal only this year, no cash please. The Book Fair will wrap up on Saturday so those who'd like to browse should stop in from 10 to 11am. Music with Marshal will wrap up the event with some global tunes. Looking forward to it!
Book Fair This Week!
With the holidays right around the corner, books are great gifts! Our annual Book Fair is set up in the office conference room for parents to browse during office hours (8am to 4pm) so please stop in and take a look! Our Paper Pie rep will be here on Saturday, during the International Festival, from 10 to 11am. If you prefer online shopping, they've got that too - just click here! The Book Fair is a fundraiser for the CMS Library. We are grateful for your support!
AMI Recognition
You've probably heard us mention AMI at some point. It is the international association that Dr. Maria Montessori founded to ensure the continuation of her work. CMS has been a member school for decades, as part of our commitment to authentic Montessori education. To be a recognized school, we meet the accepted standards for Montessori schools and an AMI Consultant comes to our campus to visit classrooms and consult with Guides. Our Children's House level is excited to have such a visitor coming next week! We are looking forward to the support, comradery, and inspiration of that visit.
The mission of Community Montessori School is to provide authentic Montessori education
in a nature-rich environment that cultivates collaboration, curiosity,
love of learning, and respect for oneself, others, and the world.
