The Parent Participation Advantage

In addition to helping to keep tuition low, parents' volunteer hours help parents get to know one another and show their children they are interested in their school. All families sign an agreement pledging 25 hours of time throughout the school year or buyout hours by paying $250/family. Families joining the school after September 1st will have their hours/payment pro-rated. 

As a parent participation, Montessori Manor is a team of parents working together to help all of our children. Participation of our parents is an integral to the functioning of the school; without it, the school would lose its sense of community and tuition would increase dramatically. Every moment parents spend participating makes our school stronger and more special for the children. All jobs completed by parents are jobs we would otherwise pay professionals, saving costs that can then be used to directly support our students' education.

Active involvement in the parent program is an excellent way to get to know the school, other parents and your child's direction. By assisting the staff as a classroom parent, you can become more familiar with classroom materials and current areas of study. Special events provide an opportunity to meet parents of your child's schoolmates while realizing important school needs. By helping to clean, unpack, and repair, you will experience your child's environment first hand.
