PARENT PERKS
Parent Perks is a parent education opportunity for our families. After you drop your child off at school, stop by the conference room for a cup of coffee or tea and some good conversation. We will discuss a topic of interest related to parenting and/or Montessori philosophy each month. There is no charge and complimentary child care is available for younger, not yet enrolled children.

PARENT TALK: The Language of Response-Able Parenting
We also offer an evening series of parenting education classes entitled Parent Talk. These sessions introduce our parents to very effective ways of talking to children in order to build their spirit of independence and also help to handle parenting challenges like whining, fighting, and disobedience. The class is based on best-selling author and parenting expert Chick Moorman's books. Complimentary child care is offered on these evenings.
