What KLC Is Fund Raising For

Greetings KLC Parents,

Greetings KLC Parents and Supporters,

So what is all this fundraising going to? Over the last 6 months we have raised enough money to fund Phase I of curriculum implementation and teacher training. This is our first step in making KLC a "Montessori Inspired" center, and a critical step in improving overall quality and consistency at KLC.

Phase I includes:

--Training of the first 2 staff members in the North American Montessori Center (NAMC) Diploma Program (7 months to completion).

--Purchasing the Montessori Curriculum for all 4 rooms. Teachers will receive all classroom guides and teacher manuals necessary to begin implementing Montessori curriculum for children ages birth through 6 years old.

Phase II will include getting our third teacher enrolled in the diploma program, purchasing the classroom materials, and preparing the classroom environments.

We are really excited to begin the process of getting our staff trained. In this first year, training will include completion of the diploma program for our administrator and two lead teachers, in-service training for teachers and aides, and in-classroom practice using Montessori materials and methods.

Thank you for all your help and support.

Also please give big thanks to LISA HOWARD, Jeanne Yost, Alejandra Flores, Katrina Wurner, Lori Rommel, Jessica Howard, Katie Morris, Betsy Donehoo, Julie Evans, Tracy Taylor, Polly Kelly, Cendy Sangermano, when you see them because they have donated so much time and effort to make this happen!

If you have any questions please ask don't hesitate to ask we want to hear from you.
