Parent Teacher Organization and School Governance Council

Education begins at home and our staff strives to build upon the basic foundation and values instilled in young learners before they attend school. Families are essential to a child’s success both inside and outside the classroom. For this reason, Craig Montessori provides endless opportunities for parents to be active in their child’s education. A variety of meetings, events and activities are held during the year to keep parents and guardians involved.

 

For more information on any item listed below or to get involved, please call the school office at (414) 393-4200.

 

 

Volunteering

Parents are encouraged to volunteer in classrooms or in the school office in order to help the Craig Montessori staff complete tasks more efficiently or to simply have an extra set of hands on deck. In addition, adult chaperones are often needed for field trips. We appreciate and are extremely thankful for the wonderful parents and grandparents who offer generous donations of time and energy.
