| Reading and Learning
Mrs. Nedbalski's kindergarten students enjoyed reading outside this week! They were given books on their reading level to practice reading with a partner. Through this lesson they learned skills such as fluency, sight word recognition, phonemic awareness, and cooperation. It also provided them with opportunities to take turns, help others, and engage with the environment around them. |

A MESSAGE FROM DR. CONROY |
|
|

Wow! What an incredible time we had at this year’s Greek and Roman Games! The Greeks came out on top this year, but we witnessed both teams show amazing sportsmanship throughout! Over the past few weeks students learned about the value of demonstrating good sportsmanship during competitive games. This topic was discussed in Lower School counseling lessons, Advisory lessons, P.E. class, and by students’ classroom teachers. Students put their excellent sportsmanship into action as they cheered for one another and congratulated each other at the end of the games. I’m so proud of our Monty students!

We still have many special events planned during the final weeks of school, and I wanted to remind the families of our 8th grade students about the work students will be doing for their legacy project over the next few weeks. Eighth grade students will be painting a section of campus they selected as an area of need. They’ve worked together to decide what they will paint and how they will capture their class in this project. The first paint session for this project will be on Monday, May 23rd from 2:00-5:00pm. The second paint session will be on Tuesday, June 7th from 12:00pm - 3:00pm. Please look to my previous email for additional information. We look forward to seeing the finished project and this portion of the legacy that the Montgomery School Class of 2022 will leave behind!
