Montessori Children's House of Denver

Introducing something new—MCHD's Quote of the Week, featuring the wisdom and humor of our students! This week’s gem comes from a 3 year old Primary student who, from the Primary playground, was watching MCHD staff member, Mavis Baker, with the toddler children on the toddler playground. Has your child shared something funny or memorable? Send us their quote(s) via message, and they might be featured next! 🗣️✨

🌈 Happy Pride Month from the MCC!! 🌈 We proudly stand with our LGBTQ+ community, celebrating love, diversity, and inclusion.

Happy Mother Earth Day! Though we are celebrating for the entire month while discovering ways to celebrate 366 days (this year), we want to pause to celebrate and elevate Earth Day today. In the words of Chief Seattle in his Treaty Oration of 1854: "Every part of this soil is sacred in the estimation of my people. Every hillside, every valley, every plain and grove, has been hallowed by some sad or happy event of days long vanished. Even the rocks, which seem to be dumb and dead as they swelter in the sun along the silent shore, thrill with memories of stirring events connected with the lives of my people, and the very dust upon which you now stand responds more lovingly to their footsteps than yours, because it is rich with the blood of our ancestors, and our bare feet are conscious of the sympathetic touch.” Take advantage of 10% off with our community partner, and take the Earth Steward and Water Protector Pledge with your family and friends!

Though today marks the end of Black History Month, MCHD is committed to celebrating this and all marginalized groups daily. So much of the rich American history that we proudly carry includes the unspoken or erased accomplishments of Black Americans from enslavement to the present. MCHD represents the whole of mankind from toddlers to elementary and is excited to elevate Black History Month every day!
