Wow! Thank you to everyone who showed up to lend a hand for the Family Fall Cleanup Day this past Sunday. It was a gorgeous, crisp Fall day and the weather was perfect for gathering, lending a hand and eating some hot dogs outside.
Weekends can get busy for active families in Bozeman, but so many families found some time to turn up to help out. We are so grateful to those families who generously donated their time to weed, till, revamp the sandbox, mulch, fix the swing and prepare our beautiful campus for the upcoming winter months.

Please feel free to stop in to see Della or I about anything that comes up. Our doors are always open! Thank you for helping us get off to such a great year! Warmly, Tamela It was a drizzly Fall day when students gathered around the peace pole to celebrate the International Day of Peace. Their bright smiles and singing voices warmed the air as they celebrated world peace. They were not the only ones; Montessori schools across the world celebrated in different time zones.
"May Peace Prevail Around the World! Today was International Day of Peace. We celebrated as a whole school with a wonderful lesson on what peace is from Ms. Tamela. We then joined together around our peace pole and sang Light a Candle for Peace, along with other Montessori schools around the world. In the afternoon, we made peace pinwheels that the children took with them to put out in the world as a symbol to spread peace." -Ms Robyn, Head Teacher Early Childhood Teachers and staff are looking for a few volunteers to assist them in cleaning out and organizing closets, the shed and classroom cabinets.

Ice Age: Twenty-thousand years ago, Earth is a wondrous, prehistoric world filled with great danger, not the least of which is the beginning of the Ice Age. To avoid a really bad frostbite, the planet's majestic creatures - and a few small, slothful ones - begin migrating south . The story revolves around sub-zero heroes: a woolly mammoth, a saber-toothed tiger, a sloth and a prehistoric combination of a squirrel and rat, known as Scrat. PG 2002, (1h 40min).

The Parent Circle works to build strong connections between home and school to promote success for our children. There is a proven statistical correlation between parental participation and academic performance. By being an involved parent, you are showing your child the importance of community service and our school community.
