Letter From Christine
August 01, 2011 Dear New and Current Families, Alumni, Patrons, & Prospective Families, On behalf of the entire staff I welcome you to the 2011/2012 school year, our 29th year of operation. I compliment our families for having made quality education a priority in the children lives. It is their dedication over nearly three decades that has made our school what it is today. Our approach to education is to provide an interesting, challenging, exciting learning environment that
is peaceful and that children thrive in, as well as enjoy. Our school is a place where our outstanding staff
is committed and looking forward to meeting the needs of all our students who deserve the right to work
toward their fullest potential. It has always been, and will continue to be, our aim to implement the best
authentic Montessori practices in our classrooms. I look forward to sharing my experience and expertise as an educator with you. I am confident that, together, we will foster a community of interesting, well-educated and peaceful children who are joyful learners. It is vital to realize and appreciate the continuing gift that a Montessori education gives your child. If you ever ask yourself why you have chosen a Montessori education, just look at your child for the answers. PHMA students show us that we can and do make a difference. They are our gifts; thank you for entrusting your precious children to our care and expertise. Our students are our validation and proof of excellence in education at PHMA. For our new families, there will be many opportunities to get to know other families and participate in
planned activities. Please join us for our many wonderful family events: • September and January
Open Houses • Pumpkin Patch • International Picnic Parade • Turkey Trot & Feast • Winter Wonderland •
•December Group Academic & Cultural Celebrations • Scholastic Book Fair • Grandparents’ Breakfast •
•Earth Day • Scholastic Classic Golf Tournament • Summer Fun Swim Camp •Scholarship BASH Events•
I encourage prospective, new and returning families to meet our staff and tour our beautiful
environments.
“The child is endowed with unknown powers which can guide us to a radiant future.” Warmly, Christine Varkas |
