Coming Together (While Staying Apart) During COVID-19
Our hearts are with our school family and the greater community as we navigate the changes and challenges that we are all experiencing with the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic. As of April 8, 2020, both of our campuses will be closed for the remainder of the school year.
On April 1st we launched our distance learning programs utilizing the Seesaw app for our 2 Lower Elementary classes, 7 Primary classes, and Toddler community; and the Upper Elementary class is using Google Classroom. It has been heartwarming to see the connection, engagement and sense of community continue while we are physically apart. We are incredibly grateful for our faculty who have shown such creativity and inspiration as they have collaborated with their colleagues to best support our families from a distance.
And most of all, we are beyond grateful for our parent community who have shown grace, flexibility, understanding and support during this time.
We are actively enrolling for the 2020-2021 school year. Campus tours and classroom observations will be scheduled once our campuses are open. We welcome your application!
We are all in this together and we truly look forward to the day when we will all be back as a community! If you have any questions during the closure, please do not hesitate to contact the Vermont Street Campus (vermontstreet@westhills-montessori.com) or the Lake Oswego Campus (kelsey@westhills-montessori.com)
