Welcome to JPS Montessori!

The Montessori offers Y5 – 5th grade classes that are newly renovated with safe and secure entryways and upgraded with 21st century learning furniture and technology tools. The Montessori allows students to learn at their own individual pace and according to their own choice of activities. Learning is an exciting process of discovery. At the JPS Montessori, children are grouped in mixed ages and abilities. Multi-age flexible grouping allows each child to find his/her own pace. This allows for constant interaction, problem solving, child to child teaching and socialization. The children are challenged according to their ability and are never bored.

JPS Montessori Equity Goal

The Montessori Model cultivates an inclusive environment where all staff and students feel safe, valued, respected and cherished. It embraces and celebrates diverse cultural backgrounds and traditions, fostering a sense of love and belonging for everyone.

JPS Montessori Weekly Announcements

Week of January 5, 2025

Good Evening Montessori Families!

This is Mr. Jayne with your weekly update.

Happy New Year! We are very happy to welcome back everyone to school tomorrow, January 6th.

Please make sure students are dressed for the cold weather in coats, hats and gloves. We go outside everyday unless the temperature is below 0 degrees. If you are in need of outdoor essentials, please call the school or let their classroom teacher know.

Our January POMS meeting, or People of Montessori is this Wednesday, January 8th from 5:30-6:15pm. You will get a chance to meet our new parent liaison, and help plan and participate in family events that truly enhance your student’s experience. We hope to see you all there. If you are not able to attend in person, and wish to participate virtually we are going to try using google meet. Please click the link to access https://calendar.google.com/calendar/event?action=TEMPLATE&tmeid=MGhwMWUwYTIxcWlyYXR1NG9sZjVqYWJkN2wgcGF1bGluYS5vaHJleUBqcHNrMTIub3Jn&tmsrc=paulina.ohrey%40jpsk12.org

This is the season for germs and illness to start amping up. Please keep in mind that regular attendance is required per law. Regular attendance is essential for student success. Michigan law requires all children from six to eighteen to attend school. If your child is not at school due to sickness they will be considered unexcused absences unless there is a doctor's note regarding the illness. If your child has missed a significant amount of school Ms. Tonya will be reaching out to you to address barriers and to help ensure your child is successful! We appreciate your partnership in your child’s academic journey!

We will begin midyear assessments for all students in the month of January. Thank you for ensuring your student gets the necessary sleep and is in attendance every day.

That’s all for this week. Parents and guardians, thank you for everything that you do. Enjoy the rest of your evening! And, as always, Go, Vikings!!
