Dear Parents,

I wanted to let you know that we are modifying out food policy and snack food here at Marimont.

We ask that all grapes, hot dogs and carrots sent to school with your child are cut lengthwise. Hot dogs should then be cut into smaller, edible pieces. Grapes and hotdogs should not be cut width-wise because the diameter of the food will remain the same and poses a choking threat to the child. Grapes, carrots and hotdogs that are sent to school uncut will be sent back home uneaten. We will provide an alternate food from snack if necessary.

James and I re going to find a replacement for popcorn on our snack menu by next Monday. We will still have movie and popcorn day for the last week of summer.

If you have more question about choking hazards, please visit:

Thank you so much for your help and your support to keep our children safe!

Kennedy works on the small pegs (I accidentally disturbed her focus when I took the picture!); Sophie relaxes on the playground. In the back classroom, Sujaan writes his numerals. 

Hello Parents!

Hope your kiddos are ready for another wonderful day of fun in the water and sun tomorrow!

I went back to take pictures today and noticed how nicely these friends were sharing and observing. I had to get a picture of Jojo after a fun, messy art day!

On this wonderful morning, Antoni traces a metal inset in his class while Ciaran finds his placemat across the building. Mason serves himself snack in the front building. 

Maleah prepares carrots for her friends. Alexis waits for a teacher’s help to make a necklace. Presley hones her scissor cutting skills. 

Dear Parents,

We will be closed on Monday, August 1st for classroom preparation. The first day of school will be Tuesday, August 2nd.

Thank you and have a great day!
