Denali Montessori PTSA

🫶🏻❤️🎉

Seats may still be available, especially for incoming kindergarteners. A Montessori education allows your child to work at their academic level and values whole-person education in a carefully crafted environment. Join us!

Congratulations to the sixth graders and Life Skills students who celebrated the completion of their curriculum at Denali! We are proud of you!

Happy last day of school!! PTSA was happy to provide ice cream and popsicles to all our students and families. Have a great summer!!

Join us on the playground to celebrate the last day of school with ice cream and popsicles! You can paint a 75th anniversary tile, wish Mr. Horning well in his retirement, and purchase a year book or some spirit wear before heading off for summer break! 🐻‍❄️❤️

It's teacher and staff appreciation week and we are SO thankful for our fantastic Denali crew! Here are some ideas to show them some appreication this week. If this list overwhelms you a bit (it did for me) pick one or two to share the love! Even a small note of encouragement means so much.

Help us celebrate our amazing educators next week. Here are some ideas:

Monday, 5/4: Self-care - chapstick, coffee/tea/favorite beverage, lotion
Tuesday, 5/5: Kindness - flower
Wednesday, 5/6: School supplies
Thursday, 5/7: Experience - gift card
Friday, 5/8: Gratitude - nice note, drawing, or card from you and/or your child

Feel free to contact the office at [email protected] or 907-742-4500 if you need ideas for your child's teacher.
