Lots of things happening right now!

Fort Collins Montessori School • March 1, 2013

Flyer for Speaker Series What are we up to? Here’s an overview of what we have going on right now:

1) Ongoing effort to collect Intent to Enroll forms. These forms do not obligate a family to enroll their child, they simply function to give the Design Team of the charter and the Poudre School District an idea of how much interest there is in the school and its opening grade levels. These forms are the “currency “ for the PSD regarding interest and intent by families about the school. They also allow the school’s Design Team to develop the school for a known population size.

2) Montessori Education Speaker Series – March 7 and April 4, 2013

  • March 7, 2013 – Elementary and Middle School Education from a Montessori Perspective – Event held at Home State Bank (basement conference room) at 303 E. Mountain Ave, Fort Collins CO. 6-8 PM.
    Join us with two heads of Montessori Charter Schools to examine what Montessori education for elementary and middle school aged children is like. Discussion and Question period from 6-8 PM.

3) We need letters of support for a Montessori Charter School in Fort Collins.
