Memory Monday: As we kick off Teacher & Staff Appreciation Week, we begin with deep gratitude for Seton’s early educators—the pioneers and legacies on whose shoulders we stand.

They shaped our understanding of the power of this work, the potential held within each person, and the joyful presence found in truly following the child. They modeled what it means to be an educator, and their legacy continues to guide us each day.

They also remind us to hold this work with lightness—to dance and play, and to find joy alongside our Montessori companions every day. For that, and so much more, we are deeply thankful!

REGISTRATION DEADLINE for our Spring Discovering Montessori Course is MONDAY, MARCH 9TH

Our Spring Discovering Montessori course begins next week! Offered online through Seton Montessori Institute, this program is designed for assistant teachers, new school staff, specialists, and parents who want a deeper understanding of Montessori without committing to full certification.

Participants will explore foundational Montessori principles, strengthen their effectiveness in supporting children, and gain practical tools they can use right away. For many, this course becomes a meaningful first step toward pursuing full teaching credentials—and the course cost can even be applied toward future certification!

Take the first step in growing your knowledge and impact in the classroom!

Today we honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. His vision of justice and nonviolence reflects Maria Montessori’s belief that peace is cultivated through daily practice. By nurturing environments rooted in dignity, empathy, and respect, we help shape not only our classrooms, but a more just and peaceful future for all.
