“Discipline is born when the child concentrates his attention on some object that attracts him and which provides him not only with a useful exercise but with a control of error. Thanks to these exercises … the child becomes calm, radiantly happy, busy, forgetful of himself and, in consequence, indifferent to prizes or material rewards.”
– Dr. Maria Montessori

Welcome back to school! The first week of school has been amazing! The energy and buzz students and staff bring to a new school year is truly something special.
This past few months flew by fast and we got to have a lot of fun. Children were sad to say good bye to water days and all the science experiments and activities we did throughout summer. But they were excited to start the new school year and meet new friends and work in their newly decorated classrooms.
Soon after we said hello to the 2024-2025 school year children got to celebrate the Labor Day! We are looking forward to seeing everyone during our Back to school nights soon. Our annual book fair is also coming to school and both children and the teachers are equally excited to expand their libraries with new books.
Looking forward to a great school year with everyone.

““Joy, feeling one’s own value, being appreciated and loved by others, feeling useful and capable of production are all factors of enormous value for the human soul.”
” – Dr. Maria Montessori

Spring has sprung! Our children has bloomed beautifully both academically and socially. We as educators are very proud of each and every one of them.
We just finished our “Around the World” expo and it was amazing to see how much children learned about different countries over the last few months. We loved seeing all the parent participation and families having fun together.
Looking ahead we will be celebrating our wonderful Moms in style this year. And our preschool will participate in a final field trip to the Botanical Gardens before we wrap up the 2023-2024 school year.
With all the events happening at school, I want to thank all our MSE families for always making time to participate and help out where you can. We are at the last stretch of the school year and let’s finish strong.
Here’s to lots of warm and sunny days to come.

“The fundamental help in development, especially with little children of 3 years of age, is not to interfere. Interference stops activity and stops concentration.” – Dr. Maria Montessori

Happy New Year! Can you believe another year has started. I hope this new year is filled with love and laughter! Even though it was pretty chilly, children were eager and excited to come back to school. All of them were excited to talk about the wonderful things that they did over the holiday break.
Last quarter we were very busy with many different exciting events. Finishing the year off with a fun spirit week was the icing on the cake. Next quarter we are going to be even busier with our bi-annual EXPO coming up. Teachers are already getting ready for it and you will see and hear a lot of new projects happening in your child’s class.
As a reminder please remember to send in a reusable water bottle and a jacket everyday to school. Thank you families for your continued love and support.

“The hand is the instrument of intelligence. The child needs to manipulate objects and to gain experience by touching and handling.” – Dr. Maria Montessori

We kicked off our summer program “Creative Catalyst” after a wonderful and a very successful Spring Concert. Children loved learning about art basics and all the aspects of creative arts while enjoying the wonderful weather and outdoor time. As always having water play days makes summer extra special for them.
We ended our summer program with a family picnic. It was a lively event with good food and good music. After a wonderful summer, we welcomed the new school year with a blast. Teachers worked hard to make the classrooms look completely different for the new school year. The excitement was palpable among the children when they came in on Monday.
Looking forward to a wonderful new school year!

“”As soon as children are able to walk, a period begins during which the hands, which are now liberated from the task of helping the body to move, need to be given work”” – Dr. Maria Montessori

Just like that we are in 2023. Happy New Year! I hope this new year is filled with love and laughter! Children were very excited to come to school after the break and so were the teachers. The rainy weather did nothing to dampen their enthusiasm.
We had so much fun the last quarter starting with our Trunk-o-Treat event and then finishing the year off with our spirit week. Thank you all the families for all the love and support you have given us to make memorable events for the children.

““Do not tell them how to do it. Show them how to do it and do not say a word. If you tell them they will watch your lips move. If you show them, they will want to do it themselves.”” – Dr. Maria Montessori

Our children had so much fun exploring the seven continents during our Summer program. It was so much fun to see children having fun in the sun and learning about different cultures, climates, and landmarks.
The water play every week was a bonus and each and every one of them loved water play day.
Last week we began our 2022-2023 school year with renewed goals and new ideas. Even though we operate as a year round school, the excitement on the first day was palpable.
Please remember to send your child to school with a reusable water bottle. Teachers refill these throughout the day as needed. We are looking forward to welcome you all for our back to school night. Please note that masks are mandatory for the event.
Here’s to a great school year!

Thank you families for always helping out whenever you can and supporting our school. I am humbled by your kindness and generosity with words and time.
Our Spring concert preparations are on full swing. We can’t wait to show you the end product. Hope you’ll enjoy watching it as much as we had making it. We are looking forward to a fun filled summer and water play days are going to be back in schedule here at MSE.

“The greatest sign of success for a teacher..is to be able to say, “The children are now working as if I did not exist”” – Dr. Maria Montessori

Spring has sprung! Here’s to lots of warm and sunny days to come. We were able to hold some exciting events during the past three months and it is all thanks to the awesome families that we have at MSE.

Our first ever Jog-a-thon event was a huge success. Children were able to enjoy the nice weather that we got lately during our Jog-a-Thon prize giving and during our St. Patricks’ Day parade.

Looking ahead we will be celebrating Spring later this month with a party and an egg hunt. We will also have our long awaited Children’s Literature Expo after a two year break.

We are at the final stretch of the 2021-2022 school year. Children have bloomed beautifully both academically and socially.
Wishing you all a wonderful spring season full of happiness and good times!

As the new year renews all the happiness and good cheers, hope the joyful spirit keeps glowing in your heart forever! Happy New Year! I hope this new year is filled with love and laughter!

I am very grateful for all the parent and grand parent support we got during the holiday season. Our school couldn’t have done all the wonderful things for the children without the support you extended.

I want to thank you all for the love and support you have given me all these years. It’s with a heavy heart I will be leaving my second home MSE at the end of July.  It was such a privilege to take care of your precious children all these years. You and your families will always hold a special place in my heart. I was very lucky to have such caring support from all of you.

A happy Father’s Day to all the wonderful and amazing daddies in school, you rock!

This month we celebrated Mother’s Day to honor our “Supermoms” for all they do and we hope that everyone enjoyed their to-go breakfast and the presents that your little ones did. The preschoolers did amazing performances and you are able to watch it through our facebook page. We appreciate all our Mommies for  all you do and you are the best!
