Still without power at 7 p.m. Monday.  We will be closed on Tuesday, November 1st.

Our playground is littered with large branches and will need professional attention and repairs (to fences after branches are removed) before it’s safe for the children.

We hope power returns before Wednesday, and will continue to keep parents posted.

PLEASE NOTE: If you haven’t had an e-mail or NEWS post that confirms when the school will reopen, please call the office and listen to the message.  Without power, our access to internet is limited, but we can always update the phone message.

We currently have no power at The Montessori House, and much of Tenafly has no power this Sunday morning. 

Right now we plan to open school on schedule tomorrow, Monday, October 31st. 

We will provide an update on school closing two ways:

1. Here in NEWS on the website.
2. Via the phone message at 201-816-8343. 

If possible we will send an e-mail update as well.  In case you see no further update in NEWS \, this means we’ve lost internet communications.  In that case, PLEASE CALL 201-816-8343 Monday morning for the latest information.

The Montessori House School is open for all sessions today, Friday, January 7.

We urge every family to evaluate whether the trip to and from school today is hazardous based on local conditions, and adjust their child’s day accordingly.  

As snow accumulates, this may apply especially to afternoon students, who may choose to stay home.  And for full-day students,  feel free to come early to pick up your child today.  Come to the door and announce yourself over the intercom.  It will then take about 5 to 10 minutes to get your child ready and bring her/him to the door to meet you. 

Be safe!

We  have electric power at The Montessori House as of 8 p.m., Tuesday, June 1. 

Classes will be in session on the normal schedule tomorrow, Wednesday.

Remember, for the balance of this week the parking lot entrance on Knickerbocker is closed due to construction.  Enter and exit only from Riveredge, and use only the east parking lot.  The roadway between the school and playground will be closed for drop-off and pick-up.
