Portraits 
JacobSparrow Portraits will again be offering portraits of your children. You will have a chance to view the pictures BEFORE you buy. Sparrow offers online ordering. You will be able to choose sheets of 1 8x10, 2 5x7s, 4 4x5s, and/or 9 wallets. The cost is quite reasonable and the portraits will be back in plenty of time for holiday gift giving. If you wish, you may bring siblings and have all of your children photographed together as well as individually. Portrait day will be Wednesday, October 14.  We will begin immediately after circle time ends (about 1/2 hour after school begins.)  If you plan to bring siblings please come towards the beginning of this time.

Monthly Curriculum

DavidAlong with our general curriculum we are beginning our year-long science and geography studies. This year we will be learning about animals. In each monthly newsletter, we will let you know what we are studying during that month in the right side column. Please feel free to contribute items of interest for show and tell or for demonstration. 

Drop Off/Pick Up
KaiThank you to everyone who has made this year's drop off/pick up line quite a success so far!  Just as a reminder, it is important to arrive as close to your designated time as possible.  If you find yourself arriving early please park in the church parking lot across the street and wait there for the appropriate time.  Also if the line is backed up to the street please wait in the church parking lot until there is space.  Thanks for your cooperation!
Scholastic Book Orders
 
At CK Montessori you have the optional opportunity to order books each month through Scholastic Book Clubs.  Scholastic offers quality books at great prices. The school earns points for these orders which we trade in for free books or school equipment.  In the newsletter each month there will be a link that you can follow to order your books online.  If you prefer to do a paper order you can ask your child's teacher for an order form.  Online ordering is easy and you can pay with a credit card.  Simply click on the link below and follow the steps.  Our user name is "CKMontessori" (no space) and the password is "bookorder".  The books arrive at the school about 2 weeks after the due date.
 
Sincerely,

New Parent Night
 William
Every fall we offer a Parent Night for those new to Montessori.  During this evening the teachers will give an overview of the curriculum found in our classrooms. It is helpful for parents to see the Montessori equipment, so that you will understand what your children are talking about! You will have the opportunity to ask many questions. Our discussions will culminate with ideas for you to take "Montessori" home with you so that we will be working as a team. Please get a sitter for your children. Our program lasts about an hour and a half. 
  
New Parent Night this year will be Monday, October 5 at 6:00 PM
