Montessori Micro Marathon - Thank you to PTSA for organizing this event and all of our volunteers who help cheer, supervise and support our runners! Congrats to all our students for pushing themselves to continuously move and take on this challenge. Exercise and getting gets active is such an essential piece to helping students focus and attention in the classroom, as well as building healthy habits for life. We love seeing the support and encouragement students give one another as they participate in the event. We'll share updates on how many funds were raised once the numbers are in!
Costume Parade & Dance - The PTSA's annual costume parade and dance is next Friday, Oct. 18th from 6-8pm. All families from JK-8th grade are invited. There will be music, a costume parade, and food for sale. Adults and students are encouraged to dress up. Although the Costume Dance is an after school hours event, it is on school grounds so we ask that you respectfully abide by the following guidelines for all costumes:
- No toy weapons (guns, light sabers, knives, swords) may be brought to school.
- No revealing clothing (e.g. crop tops, halters, off the shoulder, strapless, backless, spaghetti straps, see-thru, etc.)
Costumes may not be offensive or inappropriate in any way
Have a great weekend,
Ashley Imperiale
Principal
