Greetings, Families!

The fall weather is finally upon us and we are looking forward to cooler days. Mr. Jeronimo and the children continue to water the garden daily and our little greens are starting to sprout.  Yay for fall!

W. Milton Construction 🚧
The city has completed its construction project on W. Milton and we can return to our regular established parking system. Please drive up South 2nd Street and park in the first available street parking space you see on West Milton. Walk or carry your child, either holding hands or in a stroller/carrier,  to campus and until he/she is collected by a guide.  Refrain from parking on S. 3rd in order for us to maintain a positive relationship with our neighbors. Parking spots in front of the school and in the driveways are reserved for staff members.

Please exit to the right (north) when leaving W. Milton and always park in the direction of the traffic, leaving plenty of space (at least one meter on each side) of our neighbor’s driveways.  As always, thank you for your continued cooperation with parking.

Accreditation! 📜
Julia’s Garden Montessori is officially accredited!  We were presented with our accreditation from ICARE (International Council for Accrediting Relationship-based Education) on Monday, October 14th, 2019. Julia’s Garden is the first school to be presented with this prestigious award from ICARE and we could not be more grateful to our parent and staff community for their participation throughout this process. Now, on to the next one!

Greetings, JG Families!


What an amazing garden day we had last Sunday - the plants are planted and we even got a bit of rain to seal the deal. Be sure to check out the Garden Photo Album on the Parent Portal and the Community FB Page to see all of the great shots of our community working together.  Such a special event!!

W. Milton Construction
The City has extended their deadline for construction on W. Milton until the end of November. Please continue to return to your cars promptly to make room for others to park in limited street spots. Thank you for your help!

Accreditations
Julia’s Garden will have two accreditations by Spring of 2020 under TEPSAC. Wow!!  We will be awarded our accreditation from ICARE next Monday, October 14th during our CD Day.  Additionally, our TAAPS accreditation visits will be completed by mid-November.  These are exciting steps for our school and we are grateful for our entire parent and staff community for offering their time to help us achieve this goal.
