If you would like to register your child for Fall Break Camp please complete the attached 2025 Fall Break Camp Sign Ups.docx and return to the office before November 14th. As a reminder, space in camp is limited and confirmed on a first come, first served basis.
Montessori Key West 5K & Kids Fun Runs (1 Mile & ½ Mile)
Registration is OPEN for our Annual 5K & Kids Fun Run! Shirts for the first 100 registrants, and registration price increases on 11/15. We have special surprises and Montessori Key West touches all throughout the race – this is a morning you will not want to miss out on. REGISTER HERE
Don’t want to run? We need volunteers! Sign up here, and earn your Fundraising hours for Work/Pay!
Please grab flyers from the front office and hang in grocery stores, coffee shops, gyms – wherever you see local events advertised. A flyer is also attached.
Holiday Light Conch Train with Montessori Key West
One of our favorite community events is open for sign ups: The Holiday Lights Conch Train – Montessori Edition!! 💫
Please mark your calendars for Tuesday, December 16th at 5:45PM – we’ll meet on the Front Lawn for treats and board the trains on Varela St. Wear your holiday gear (pajamas encouraged!)
Tickets are $15 per student & $20 per guest (grown ups and non-student children.) We will invoice you after sign ups.
We reserved an extra train this year, so we are happy to be able to invite grandparents and other family & friends in addition to immediate family. The more the merrier!!
This year is also a “Half Tour” – meaning the ride will be 45 mins (instead of 90) to accommodate our younger age group.
Please respond to this email to sign up with the following information:

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 Shaun Hamilton, Dad of Sutton, Scout & Shipley, who graciously offered to assemble our new bike rack for our many students who keep their bicycles here during the day. It looks lovely in the Elementary area, and we are so grateful for the handyman help!! Thank you Shaun!
