Hello, all Current and Former MIS Families!
I am writing to you today from the small school you know and remember. The school is complete with small chairs and tables, prepared lessons and materials, and the memories and experiences of the students who grew, learned, and blossomed here. Children continue to invigorate the room each day with their explorations, discoveries, and remarkable abilities. They fill the space and the teachers with such joy and excitement. I am so incredibly proud to have taken up the torch from Ms. Sue all those years ago to continue MIS’s mission of providing Montessori education to our Knoxville community. This school year marks the 30th year of Montessori education at Montessori Internationale School! What an amazing milestone and a reason for celebration!
In honor of our school’s 30th anniversary, we are honored to host a reunion celebration for our former and current MIS students and families. This is an opportunity to gather, reminisce, laugh, connect, and celebrate our shared MIS experience. Our school was likely the start of your child's educational journey (or yours if you are a former student), and we would love to hear where that path has led! Please use this invitation as a moment to reflect on your time with us. We would love to hear from you. The RSVP portion of the invitation includes space for a story or memory (this can be added or edited later via the RSVP). You can also email us with something you’d like to share.
We have planned a reception for Saturday, April 11, 2026, at 2:00 pm. The event will be held at McFee Park in Farragut, Tennessee, in the small pavilion. There is ample parking, a covered pavilion for our gathering, open grassy spaces, and a nearby playground. We plan to serve light refreshments and will have photos and memorabilia available for viewing. As our plans continue to come together, please let us know if you are interested in sharing a memory or showcasing a talent at the event.

We hope to bring together as many former students and families as possible, and we could use your help! Please share this with any other MIS families you know, especially those who attended before 2013. Our records for those years are limited. We will do our best to reach out to all our contacts and share the invite via social media. We look forward to reuniting and celebrating with you!
