Student Showcases are Coming!
Tudor Families,
You are invited to the Second Annual Student Showcase. The Tudor student showcase is an opportunity for your children to show you what they have been working on this year.
This open house event will take the place of traditional parent teacher conferences. Parents and children are invited to come any time between 3:30 and 5:30 on Thursday February 13th. During this open house students will be able to show you what they have learned, what work they are proud of, and what skills they are still working on. Families will have the opportunity to visit classrooms and teachers throughout the school.
Teachers who have concerns about student performance will be reaching out directly to schedule one on one conferences. The on-line conference scheduler will not be available. If you do not hear from the school and feel that a private one on one conference is needed, please call Mrs. Sommerville at 742-1062.
Please Note Pre-School Conferences will be scheduled by the teachers.

What is Montessori?
The Montessori Method of education, developed by Dr. Maria Montessori, is a child-centered educational approach based on scientific observations of children from birth to adulthood. It is a view of the child as one who is naturally eager for knowledge and capable of initiating learning in a supportive, thoughtfully prepared learning environment. It is an approach that values the human spirit and the development of the whole child—physical, social, emotional, and cognitive. Montessori’s Method has been time tested with over 100 years of success in diverse cultures throughout the world.
