Weekly Wave

This Friday, November 1st we will wrap up our first set of conferences for the school year. These are required by your Family School Commitment, so if you are unable to make the scheduled days, please reach out to your Lead Guides. Links are are below for your convenience.

Upper Elementary and Early Secondary students are required to attend their conferences.

It's time again for our sailing club! The Key West Community Sailing Center is hosting our school's next sailing club. This takes place on Friday's from 1:00- 3:00pm. School staff will transport the students to the sailing club, but families are responsible for pick up. This session will be from November 8th until December 20 ( note that there will not be classes on November 28th).

This is a 6 week commitment and the cost is $150 per child. If you are interested in this but feel that you have a hardship, scholarships are available. Please reach out to admin@maysandsmontessori.com if you are in need.

Thank you to everyone who worked the fundraising booths this weekend! Your support really helps all of us! Remember, when everyone does a little, no one has to do a lot!

Students should prepare something about their figure in an age appropriate way, this is done in class, but also discussed at home:

• Primary (3yo- Kindergarten) - Name of Figure
• Lower Elementary (1st-3rd grade) - Name of Figure and 2-3 sentences about what made them a significant person in history
• Upper Elementary (4th-6th grade) - Name of Figure and 2-3 paragraphs about what made them a significant person in history
• Early Secondary (7th & 8th grade) - Name of Figure and an essay or 2-3 minute presentation about what made them a significant person in history

Costumes should be easy and as home-made as possible. Please do not think you have to go out and purchase something! We will not allow masks or play weapons though! i.e.: If you choose a war hero, please plan accessories accordingly.

School photos will be taken November 7th! Please be sure to dress your child appropriately. We will be taking class photos as well as individuals. All students will be photographed for the yearbook as well as family purchase. Photos will be taken in the morning. Thank you for getting your child to school on time so they do not miss their photo time slot!
