Lunch with your child

Parents who would like to join their child for lunch please let me know via email the day before so I can make arrangements. While you are in the classroom please follow the following guidlines:
1) Eat at separate table with only their child
2) Share food with their child only (other children may have dietary restrictions & health code policies dictate this)
3) Maintain the calmness of the environment
We want to allow quality time between the parent and their child within the school day. These policies are to help maintain a safe and proper Montessori environment for your child.
Thanks again and please let me know if you have any questions.

Hope you had a wonderul week with your child!
