This Week's Update

Week of April 13, 2026

 

Good Evening Families,

We have a fun couple of weeks ahead as we gear up for our Spring Carnival! Be sure you have all of the details on your family calendar!

Tuesday is Spring Picture Day at George Watts Montessori. Honor Roll Portraits will be here to take both individual and class pictures. Details for ordering will be provided with links to proofs a few weeks after picture day.

Tuesday is also our April PTA work session just after morning arrival. With the carnival and teacher appreciation week coming in the next month, we need all the help we can get–join us at 7:45AM in the media center just after morning arrival.

Wednesday, we kick-off a fun spirit week (and a half) in honor of the carnival with a fun Block Party (meet us on Mallard Ave between Oakwood and Gurley). Additional spirit week details will come home with your child on Monday (see below).

Finally, this week is our Dine-IN MURSDAY at Elmo’s to support the PTA. Monday through Thursday, enjoy a fun breakfast, brunch, or lunch with a friend and support the PTA (dine-in only).

Have a great week and we hope to see you around George Watts Montessori soon!
