A Blog for Our Children's Center!

This is the beginnning of a new venture for OCC -- a blog! Our website is under construction, so please check out this blog from time to time. I hope you find this to be a place where you can ask questions, access information, learn about Montessori philosophy, and know you are not alone as you raise children. I hope this forum provides new and returning families a way to get to know one another.

Feel free to post questions and comments. You may use your name (first only, or first and last), or you may comment anonymously. If, however, you have a question that needs a timely or confidential response, please give me a call at the office instead.

Next week, there is no school so that the teachers may ready the classrooms for the new school year.

On Thursday, August 30th, Our Children's Center will have an Open House from 4:30 - 5:30pm. Your child will be able to see his or her classroom as well as meet the teachers. Class lists will be available. A picnic will follow from 5:30 - 7:30pm. More information about the picnic was mailed to you in your August packet. Please call the office for directions or more information.

Stay cool and see you next week,
Tricia

Wow! I love the new OCC blog! What a great idea. Jane is really enjoying her first week of Kindergarten, Miss Tricia. She is so proud of herself and excited about school! But I am finding it very strange to not see you and the other teachers every day after what seems like so many years of being at OCC now that Jane is riding the bus to school! So while the first week has been a very smooth one for both Jane and Grace, I'm the one who feels slightly out of sorts! I'll look forward to reading the blog. Happy September!

Maggie,

I know just how you feel! I miss OCC already. Isn't it strange? Jane and Jack are on the same bus, though. That's so cute. ;)

I guess I'm lucky in that I get to put Ben on the bus, then follow it to take Ethan to OCC in the morning...I get there just in time to see Ben get off the bus. Ben absolutely loves Kindergarten so far. He says he feels "so old, like a high-schooler". Ethan, always the flirt, says he "just loves everybody at OCC."
