Note from Head of School

Thank you to the families participating in our Next Level Open House on Tuesday evening. We had a full house, and families (and students!) were excited to learn about life at the next level.

We always appreciate your participation and interest in the enriching experiences your child receives from our dedicated teachers in our Montessori classrooms.

As always, please feel free to share ideas and ask questions anytime.

Have a lovely weekend!

Warmly,

Deba
