Moving on Ceremony -10:30AM

Held at Litchfield Montessori School (Extended Day and Elementary children participating in the ceremony should arrive at 10:15am. Sixth-Years should arrive at 9:15am.

This special event celebrates our students as they transition to new stages in their educational journeys. We will honor children moving from Extended Day to Lower Elementary, Third Years advancing to Upper Elementary, and our Sixth-Year children completing their time at LMS.

Afterward, we invite all families to join us for a bring-your-own-picnic lunch. Please remember to bring a picnic blanket to relax and enjoy the time together. Although it is not a requirement, all are welcome to attend, even if your child is not moving up this year. Extended Day through Elementary children have been preparing musical entertainment for the event, and they are eager to showcase their talents.


 

Class and Individual Photos:

We have been notified that our school photo proofs will be delivered electronically this year. 

Rather than submitting payment or returning unwanted photos to the school, parents will receive a log-in to view their child's photos and decide if they would like to order at that time. The photographer expects to provide us with this information within the next week.
