The Annual Fund - Growing Together
Let us watch the Pink Tower grow as a tangible reminder of the collective impact we make together!
The participation of every parent in our annual fund campaign is essential because achieving 100% participation sends a powerful message of unity and commitment to our shared mission. It shows that, as a community, we value and invest in our children's education. It also encourages outside donors and grant organizations to support us, as they see the strong backing by our own community.
Snow Protocols:
Just a reminder that, when it comes to weather delays and cancelations, Litchfield Montessori School typically follows the Litchfield Public Schools’ decision.
From an email the superintendent sent recently:
“the decision to close or delay school begins well in advance of the announcement. [He] review[s] weather forecasts in the days before a storm and during the early morning hours. Between 4:45 a.m. and 5:15 a.m., telephone consultations between the superintendents, highway departments, and maintenance personnel, determine the status of the weather and roads…This is not a perfect process and changing conditions may necessitate a later decision.”
Delay Opening: There is no Early Bird care on those occasions and school begins at 10am, unless the forecast requires an alternative.
Early Dismissal: We will let you know as soon as possible via Remind, so you can make plans to pick up your child(ren).
Make sure you’ve signed up for Remind, as this is how we will notify you in the event of a delay, closing, or early dismissal.
