Montessori Buzz – February 1, 2022
|
Dear MA Families & Friends,
Casa/Toddler Extended HoursMoving into February, we continue to be mindful of the health of our Toddler/Casa staff and
students, as well as staffing ratios. Therefore, we will not offer Occasional Use of our Early and Extended Hours, and the program will continue to operate 8-5pm until February 25.
Updates to this program may depend on upcoming provincial announcements; we will share any
changes as they’re decided, either via your Parent Reps or in the Buzz.
Screening required before drop-offWe still require families to self-screen at home by 7:45 a.m. per the daily text reminder. We will let you know through the Buzz when screening is no longer required.
Re-enrolment is openRe-enrolment opened last week and is due by Friday, February 11. Parents can find the forms required when you log into the MA Parent Portal: https://montessori.myschoolapp.com/
