If specific problems arise during the
school year, parents should feel free to contact the
school and a special meeting will be arranged.
Dress Code
Your child's clothing should be simple,
comfortable, easy to clean, and easy for them to
manage. Avoid belts, straps, suspenders,
etc. Students require runners for outdoor
play, and slippers for indoor wear. We
appreciate parents purchasing Velcro runners,
whenever possible, to allow children to dress
independently. The ability to “do it
themselves” builds self-confidence and a feeling
of independence. Sandals are not permitted
in the playground area. For children in
diapers, please ensure that you bring baby wipes,
cream, and diapers, sufficient to keep your little
one comfortable for the duration of their
stay. All clothing should be labeled.
The school is not responsible for lost articles.
Parental
Involvement
Included in your registration package is
a Volunteer Sign-Up sheet. There are many
activities in which we welcome, and need, your
assistance. Parents who have a special
talent, career, or hobby, that they think might be
interesting to the children, are invited to make
arrangements with the Class Teacher to set up a
time to share this information with the students.
 Behavior Management
Paradise Montessori Preschool follows a
positive image management policy. All
children are cared for respectfully. In the
event a student is misbehaving, or hurting another
child, the student will be re-directed to a
different area and/or another activity. The
child will be encouraged to talk about the
incident, and their behavior, when he or she is
ready. Should a child become uncontrollable,
for any reason, the parents will be contacted
immediately. With their permission, outside
resources, such a Child Daycare Office Behavior
Management Specialist, will be consulted.
"Montessori is not a system for training
children in academic studies but a revolutionary
method of observing and following the interests of
children, and continually adapting the environment
from which they learn, by means of experimentation
and research, what they need to know in order to
contribute to society and the environment, and to
become fulfilled persons in their particular time
and place on Earth.” - THE INTERNATIONAL MONTESSORI
