Border Star Montessori

Come by Border Star Montessori on Monday (October 31) and help us celebrate Halloween!

Children will need to bring:

• a costume to school for the parade and room party
• a non-perishable food item for our fall charity & service project making pantry meals for ‘Meals on Wheels’
• a bag of candy, stickers, etc. for the parade

Each classroom needs a few volunteers to pass out goodies along the parade route!
Parade begins at 2:30 p.m. (come see all of the terrific costumes) and parties begin at 3:00 p.m.

There is still time to complete the Staples/KCMSD survey for the paper reduction initiative at Border Star Montessori.

Staples will be using the information gained from the survey to build a tailor-made program to help us save on paper, energy, toner and other school resources.

More survey input means more effective resource savings.  And more savings means a bigger benefit for our children.

Please take a few minutes to complete the survey.

Thank you,
Mary Silwance
