Note from Deba

I hope you enjoy this month's "Family Connection," published by the American Montessori Society, which gives a peek inside the Montessori classroom.
New Pizza Session | 1/11 - 3/8

Last chance to place your order for the next session, which starts on January 11. Please order for the whole session - the order form will close on Sunday, January 8.

Please reach out to Renay Bane with questions.
Visor Tags

During the darker wintertime Aftercare pickups, using the car visor tags helps our staff see whose cars are here at dismissal. Please have these on the dash or visor. If you need an extra one, send Sharyn a message at [email protected]. Thank you.
Weather-Related Closings and Cancellations

There are several ways you will hear about weather-related school closings or cancellations:

  • Parents will receive a text as soon as possible after the Head of School has made a decision
  • We send an email blast through Constant Contact to all parents
  • We post notices on our school website and calendar
  • We notify local TV stations
  • Facebook and Instagram announcements

Thacher usually, but not always, follows the lead of Milton Public Schools when it comes to closings due to inclement weather. Safety is our top priority. Staff and families come to Thacher from many of the surrounding towns; therefore, Thacher may opt to close for safety's sake even if Milton Public Schools are open.

Hike in the Blue Hills with the Adults
Please join us for an adult hike in the Blue Hills every other Wednesday. Meet in the parking lot across from school after drop off around 8:40 am.

For questions, please contact TFN co-chairs Daniela Field and Kirsten Glynn.

Play with the Kids
Head over to Houghton's Pond after school on Fridays to let your kids run and play. See you there!

Join the Parent Facebook Group
All parents are invited to join the Thacher Montessori Parents Facebook group. The goal of the group is for parents to have a space to share resources, ask questions and support each other in the community. Join today!
