The Power of our Community 

Montgomery's community spreads far and wide, and the impact it makes is a powerful one. From the meaningful interactions we have with each other every day, to catching up with alumni, to the friends and families who showed their support during Giving Tuesday, the power of our community shines brightly in each and every one of you, and for that we are so very grateful.

Flu Season

Flu & cold season is upon us. Please remember that children MUST be SYMPTOM FREE (including but not limited to nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, persistent coughing, a new rash, conjunctivitis or a fever) for 24 hours prior to returnng to school. A fever is when a person has measured a bodily temperature of at least 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit, without fever reducing medication. This is a school policy and has been put in place to reduce the spread of germs and keep students, staff and families healthy and learning ready. A guideline to help decide whether they should stay home is if they are not well enough to play at recess then they are not well enough to be at school.
