Communication at Montair is a priority for us. We try to ensure that everyone knows about upcoming events, opportunities, and deadlines. The best way to stay informed is to read this Montair Minute. All of our MT organizations use this tool to keep you informed. You may also like to follow us on
Facebook
. We post photos and link interesting articles regularly. We also have a
Twitter
account that offers quick snapshots and updates of events around school. We even have an
Instagram
account that enables us to share pics of upcoming events like carnival, auction, and festival around the world.
We also work hard to keep our
Montair Website
current and informative. We have links to the various organizations on campus like PTA, Foundation, Site Council and Dad’s Club. We have our Montair
google calendar
linked as well as district calendar events. We have parent resources available, including information about our literacy and math instruction here at school. We have student resources available with links to the library, science, and computer pages. If you take a minute to explore, I hope you will find all kinds of information that is helpful to you and your family.
With all of this available, we know that sharing information is a balancing act. If we don’t share enough, families are not informed and may miss opportunities to participate or information about important deadlines. If we share too much, families are overwhelmed and stop reading. Please take the time to read the Montair Minute each week and then find the platform for information that suits your style.
Here’s to another great week of learning together!

How stressed are your kids and your family?
Children and adults alike are pushing themselves to be better, stronger, smarter. As a result, we're seeing an increase in anxiety and other mental health issues. But stress isn't always bad; it can be good and in fact necessary. The reality is that too much or too little stress decreases competence and affects physical and mental health.

About this topic, "Parenting is a tough gig. Being a kid isn’t always a walk in the park either. And things can get intense between parents and kids, especially when kids don’t meet parents’ expectations. How to resolve those incompatibilities can point parents and kids toward conflict or collaboration.” - from
Elevate Your Parenting
Facebook group page, created by Lives in the Balance, non-profit organization associated with
Raising Human Beings
