Happy New Year and welcome back!

Winter Weather Policy:

Delays – We are not bus dependent and do not have delays. School will start at the regular time, regardless of what time other schools start their day. Parents, of course, should determine their own level of comfort when driving and may drop off later if the need arises.

Early Closings – We are not bus dependent and as a rule we do not close early. Parents, of course, should determine their own level of comfort when driving and may pick up early if the need arises. The exception for closing early would be if very extreme/dangerous weather or road conditions developed. If this should occur, we will contact each family by text alert, phone or email. 

Partial School Closure – Without extreme weather conditions you may bring your child for a daycare day if you have AM and/or PM care in your child’s program. Montessori Academy’s main communication will be sending out a text alert and may post “No School. Open for daycare.” announcements on the local television station 7 WEHT or Tristatehomepage.com

Whole School Closure – If travel warnings/watches are declared in Vanderburgh and/or Warrick County due to very extreme/dangerous weather, Montessori Academy will be closed and will not have school or daycare. The school’s main communication will be sending out a text alert and may post “No School. Closed for daycare.” announcements on the local television station 7 WEHT or Tristatehomepage.com

If a state-of-emergency is declared in Vanderburgh and/or Warrick County Montessori Academy will be closed and will not have school or daycare.

Snow Make-up Days – We do not have snow make-up days.

Montessoiree 2022 – PTO’s annual fundraising dinner

  • The event will take place February 26, 2022 at the DoubleTree in downtown Evansville.
  • Dinner, silent & live auction.
  • Tickets will go on sale online next week.

Soiree Donations – If you or someone you know has a business and they would like to donate an item/activity or do a sponsorship for the soiree’s live or silent auction, please let us know. Attached are the donation and sponsorship forms.

Wine Donations – Once again, PTO will be putting together “wine baskets” for the soiree auction. Donations can be handed to a staff member in the car line or dropped off in the front office.

Basket Donations – During the holiday season, if you receive any size basket that you are not interested in keeping, please donate it to the PTO. They will use them as they put together baskets of items for the auction.

All donations are tax deductible.

Things to look for in January –

No school Monday, January 17th 2022. Students who have AM and/or PM care in their program may attend their regular hours for daycare activities. Reminder – there will be no car lines for drop offs or pickups on daycare days.
