As part of our ongoing Accreditation process with IMC we need our community to complete a series of surveys about our school.  Survey 2 is below.  Thank you for taking a moment to complete it so we can finalize our multi-year journey to Accreditation with IMC!

Parent Education Fall Series

Our Fall Parent Education Series will take place during the second week of October. Each program’s Lead Guides prepare a special, focused education session for their parents, two times per year. Childcare is provided for each session. We highly encourage you to take advantage of this special opportunity to meet with and learn from your child’s Lead Guide. Oftentimes many parents leave these sessions feeling renewed in their approach to parenting; with new tools to use at home, a greater understanding of their child’s day here at school, and a deeper connection to their child’s learning journey. It is a worthwhile use of an hour.
