Call for Sponsors – Montessori 5K!

Our Annual 5K & Kids Fun Run is coming up on December 6, 2026. Registration will open next week. In the meantime, we are looking for SPONSORS to support our event and help us keep race costs low for participants. The sponsorship form is 2026 Montessori 5K Sponsor.docx. Special thanks to Berkshire Hathaway Home Services & Boyd’s Campground, the first two sponsors to sign up!! All funds raised for the 5K race go directly to our In-House Scholarship Fund, which pays tuition for our local families in need who otherwise cannot afford to attend our school. If you or anyone you know is willing to sponsor the race, please speak with Ms. Alex!

Congratulations to our Student Artists who created this year’s 5K Artwork: Cora Ludwig, Rishianna Gidwani, and Zadie Haskell
