Parent Workshops & Information Nights

Parent Information Nights

Open houses for families interested in the programs our school has to offer, held several times a year. Experience the Montessori approach firsthand — an experienced Montessori teacher guides you through the principles and methods. Discover the secret of childhood for new and familiarized parents.

Montessori in the Home

Its main purpose is to help implement Montessori ideas in the home. This workshop helps parents find ways to set up their home environment for the child, with advice on appropriate materials and activities to use at home.

Get Out of a Power Struggle

Learn the Positive Discipline Approach. In this workshop you will learn why kids love power struggles, how to get out of one when you are in the middle of it, and ways to prevent power struggles in the first place.

Building Parent-Teacher Partnerships

There is evidence that when schools engage families in ways that improve learning and support parent involvement at home and school, students make greater gains. Learn ways to build partnerships with families and teachers that respond to parent concerns, honor their contributions, share decision-making responsibilities, and sustain connections.

Strengthen Social & Emotional Development

Explore strategies for creating caring school communities that can be life-changing. We’ll share techniques that strengthen children’s social-emotional development, including student-led compassion projects, support for children with learning challenges, conflict resolution tools, discipline techniques, and community building.

Early Art Expression

Demonstrates how to provide process-oriented, developmentally appropriate fine art experiences for children ages 1–3. We’ll discuss the importance of art in a toddler environment and its essential role in motor skills, language, independent thinking, self-confidence, and writing.

Montessori Parenting Library

Topics introduced and expanded upon during parent education nights throughout the year. Revisit the practical life area or get a refresher on the logical sequential progression of the math curriculum. Look for these presentations as they are scheduled throughout the year — coming soon!
