Our Community at Work

Oatland Island Field Trip

This week, we will send home field trip permission slips for our trip to Oatland Island on September 23. Please sign and return as soon as possible. There is no cost for our students to attend this field trip. Parents are welcome to attend. We believe the cost of admission is $5 per person, which can be payed to Oatland Island staff upon entry. We are expected to have a picnic lunch on the property afterwards. 

 In the Classroom

On Friday, we sent home student learning logs/work plans. This is a log of the work your child completed during the week. Students are expected to have conversations with their grownups about the work they've chosen and completed. Please sign and return the log every Monday. 

Morning Recess

Morning recess started last Wednesday. Many students are meeting the morning work period expectations and going to second recess immediately. Some students are figuring out how to manage their time during the morning work period and going out to second recess when their work is complete. Others have been unable to meet the work completion expectation for the morning work period of journal writing and two additional works complete. If your child has been unable to go out for second recess, have a conversation with them. Talk to them about how their time is spent during the work periods. Ask them what they can do differently to meet the work expectations.

Tuesday Library

All students go to the library every Tuesday to borrow and return books.

At Charles Ellis Montessori Academy, we are dedicated to providing a personalized and differentiated learning experience for every student. Our educators diligently tailor instruction to meet the unique needs of all learners, including those identified as gifted. Through individualized learning plans, advanced and enriching activities, and a supportive classroom environment, we ensure that each student is challenged and inspired to reach their fullest potential. We are committed to fostering a love of learning and helping every child thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
