    Penfield Montessori make-up days update: Our last day of school will be Friday, June 14th. We will have a field day and then an all-school family picnic. We had enough instructional hours to cover all of the inclement weather days, but we now need to make up for the day the boiler was out. This information has been sent home in the Thursday folder as well. Please contact the front desk with any questions: 414-999-2330. Thank you!

    Dr. Montessori originally developed her pedagogical approach for low-income children in Rome. Unfortunately, in the U.S., the Montessori model was largely relegated to private schools. However, the spread of public school choice has led to a rapid growth in the number of public Montessori schools.

    Penfield Montessori allows students to learn and develop in a free form, constructive manner suited to each child’s unique talents and characteristics. Tell your representatives to support an increase in funding for the Charter Schools Program so that more children can attend public schools that put kids first: https://bit.ly/2CASrdq

    Over the next few weeks, Congress will decide how to spend taxpayer money – and we need to make sure that public education is at the top of their priority list.
