Happy Friday MCS Community!
A Note from our City Hall Neighbors on Parking
In order to maintain a positive relationship with our neighbors at City Hall, we need the community to be aware of what spaces in the City Hall parking area are available for our use and at what times. Please see the attached document with details of available City Hall spaces for short term use (pick up, drop off) in GREEN. Please avoid parking at City Hall for longer than the short-term use.
Administrative Announcements
All Students Aged 5 and above as of Sept 1, 2025 are eligible for the Step Up for Students scholarship. Please send your Award ID to office@montessorikeywest.com as soon as you receive it.

Open House
Once a year we open up our campus gates to the community to tour our classrooms and get to know our staff. If you have any friends or contacts in the community you think would like a chance to walk through the school please extend the invitation to visit us Saturday, April 5th from 9AM-11AM. All classrooms will be open and Lead Guides will be on campus to meet and answer questions.
Weekly Miracle Makers
Oftentimes it feels like our school is powered by Miracles. Miracles large and small happen each week to pull off all that we do here. Those miracles appear in acts of love and kindness and service by parents, children, staff, alumni, community members, and more, and each week we highlight a special one here.
This week’s Miracle Maker is Revati Assouline & Dan McCann, Julian’s Mom & Dad, who have adopted the corner garden and have made quite a beautiful little project on our sweet sidewalk. Thank you for your love and care!!
Parenting Hack of the Week
Need help getting kids to participate in the end of the night clean up? A brilliant family has a “clean up song” – they play The “William Tell Overture” and the whole gang scurries around and cleans up as quickly as they can. Give it a try and let us know how it goes.
Have a parenting hack to share with the community? Send it our way. You never know what will resonate with another family. Keep doing the work, yall!
