Principal's Corner
Dear Montclair Elementary Families,
A special thank you to our Montclair Student Council and PTCO for partnering up on Montclair Elementary ’s holiday food drive. We are proud to share that through the generosity of our Montclair Elementary Families, we collected 678 pounds which is the equivalent of feeding about 100 families one meal. The food was brought to ACTS, a local charity that supports Prince William County residents. Thank you Montclair Elementary!
As winter break approaches, please know that students will bring devices home in the event that inclement weather impacts our return to school in the new year.
On behalf of Mr. Miller and all the staff at Montclair Elementary, we wish our students and families a joyful holiday break and a happy, prosperous 2024! See you in January!
Mr. Slayter
Digital Device Handbook
As devices go home it is crucial that care and responsibility are used. Please take a moment to look at the Digital Device Handbook.
It is very important that devices are returned to school each day. Not having your device at school will not be an excuse for not participating in class or completing assignments. An alternative paper pencil task will be provided. Montclair does not have "extra" devices to loan students when a device is forgotten. the ipads
*Please keep food and water away from all devices.
