When children come to school eager to make their way to their classrooms, the value of a Gladwyne Montessori education is clear. At Gladwyne Montessori, children love learning.
Let’s not forget that Gladwyne Montessori is a non-profit organization that leverages charitable giving to advance its mission. Giving Day is an opportunity to come together to celebrate all that makes Gladwyne Montessori such as special place for children to learn, play and grow.
With your help, we will achieve our goal of 225 contributions (one to represent each of today's young learners) and $125,000 raised!
Together, our generosity ensures that our teachers can dream big about exciting new projects for young learners and that they have the resources they need to put their ideas into action.

We had so much fun cooking Bountiful Gratitude Soup (Creamy, roasted butternut squash soup!) with Ms. Carrie this afternoon - and it was wonderful to have young alumni join the fun all the way from Seattle!!!

Gladwyne Montessori teachers are AMAZING! Every day, they go above and beyond for our young learners, then on special days like today, they do even more! I bet your child will recognize the voice of Mr. Chris, one of our talented music teachers, on our Giving Day video!

Giving Day Exclusive! Your child will love seeing his or her name along our carline circle for a month of the 2021-22 school year!

Our Upper Elementary students are learning about non-profit organizations and thinking about ways that they can help on Giving Day! We're so excited that members of our Bird of Paradise classroom will be volunteering to help this week by making special gift incentives, such as the beautiful paperweight below, handing out postcards in carline, helping with our Tree of Gratitude, and conducting a service-a-thon at Saunders' Woods Park!

Gladwyne Montessori's Lower and Upper Elementary students have been hard at work creating the foundation for a Tree of Gratitude, which will come to life on Giving Day, as each gift adds one leaf, decorated by (and representing) each child!
Children love learning at Gladwyne Montessori and this week they will be reflecting on what they value most about learning at Gladwyne Montessori and decorating leaves that will bring our tree to life this Friday!
