Please join the primary teaching teams for a discussion about the Montessori elder year. Come learn about the ways in which the elder year is one of leadership, academic growth and direct preparation for the elementary years.

You’ll also have an opportunity to ask questions of all of the primary teaching teams.

Parents are invited to learn more about the lower elementary and upper elementary programs. This night is especially helpful to parents of primary elder students and third-year students.

We’ll cover some of the elementary curricula and discuss a day in the life of an elementary child at MCS. We’ll also have some time for questions.

On Friday, January 17th, the students of MCS will be participating in a school-wide service project in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. We will be making soup kits for the Catholic Parish Outreach, which is the largest food pantry in Wake County. Please note that CPO provides groceries, clothing, and baby items for people in need regardless of age, sex, gender, or religious preference. The food pantry gives hope to its clients by treating them with dignity and respect along with showing that volunteers come together with one purpose – to help them. CPO also provides a food stamp outreach program and a resource list of other assistance throughout the community. It is a model throughout the state of how to serve the less fortunate in our communities.

To support this work, we are asking families to purchase an item from the list of ingredients provided by Wednesday, January 15th.  

The Toddler students will bring in a 1lb bag of white rice, the Primary and Lower Elementary students will bring in 9 types of dried beans, the Upper Elementary students will bring in the seasonings and tomato sauce with a bag of rice, while the Adolescent Community will bring in cans of diced tomatoes. Each group will be given a set of directions to bag their ingredients. The AC will compile the final soup kits. 

Each classroom environment will be set up to bag their own ingredients. The Upper Elementary students will assist the toddlers and the primary students in bagging their ingredients. In an effort to bring some organization to this process, the classroom teachers will send out an email listing the specific ingredient each child should bring in for the kit. Please let us know if your family is unable to provide the requested ingredient so the school can purchase what is needed.
