Hello Montclair Parents and Caregivers!
We are excited to present you with this week’s parent letter. We have had a wonderful three weeks at Montclair – we are off to a great start for our school year.
Parents student early pickup ends at 2:45PM.
Please pick your little learners before 2:45 or after 3:05.
Our school calendar is on our website – below you can find a direct link:
We have several announcements for Montclair that we would like to share with you:
Remember Friday September 30th there is NO school!
Thursday, September 1st – Back to School Night was a Success!
During Back to School Night, families visited their childrens’ classes, met their teachers, and found out about the learning that will take place this year. Our Specials team, mental health providers, special educators, ELD teachers were available and spoke with many of you. Mr. Williams (Asst. Principal) provided popcorn and lemonade, while Ms. Miller-Curley (Principal) enjoyed seeing familiar faces and new ones!
Since 2009, Connect Us has been developing self-confidence, resiliency and friendship skills in children ages 3 and up through guided, age-based peer groups. Magic happens when diverse groups of kids are brought together in an open, supportive environment where they’re encouraged to express their individuality, discover commonalities and gain an understanding and appreciation of differences.
PEAK – Parents Educators and Kids Organization – First “Re-Start” Meeting September 14th
We are re-starting our parent/teacher/student organization now that COVID is in the rear view mirror. Devin Lopez, who also works for Montclair, is going to be one Co-President.
