Parent and Community Education

At a “Montessori Journey and Discovery,” adults experience our classrooms through the eyes of a child.

MMS offers parents and the community many opportunities to learn more about Montessori education and our school. These include:

Tours for prospective parents.
Classroom observations for current parents.
Parent-teacher conferences held twice a year.
MMS Parent University
Bi-monthly parent education events for each classroom or class level.
Shadow Night.
Orientation events for new students and parents.
Step-Up Nights for parents of students rising to a new class level.
Important all-school events such as a “Montessori Journey and Discovery Experience,” “Montessori Outcomes,” and the annual meeting and report to the community held each September.
Parenting workshops on topics such as Positive Discipline.
Open houses.
Public programs such as our Glass Classroom Centennial Celebration and presentations to community groups. (Go here for speaker bureau information.)
