The Circle of Friends Montessori School maintains an Advisory Board that oversees funds used for Montessori learning materials and training and support of staff members to further their knowledge of Montessori teaching techniques. Each family has a vote in decisions made by the Board, and you are strongly encouraged to become involved in the decision –making process during the regularly scheduled meetings. Your registration fee pays membership dues to the Circle of Friends Board, and each family shares a responsibility for the success of the school. The quality of your family's experiences with the center depends on the support, enthusiasm, and participation that you bring to your membership! Meetings are published in the school's monthly newsletters, which can also be found on this website. Feel free to come participate in any of the meetings!

Upcoming COFAB
meeting: Monday, Jan. 9, |
The Circle of Friends Montessori School is looking to expand into a new location soon, and begin a full-time toddler program. We are in need of new facilities, materials, and trained staff. The Circle of Friends Advisory Board raises funds for the purchase of Montessori materials, wish list items, and scholarship/support funds for teachers. We ask each family to help with at least one fundraiser per year, volunteer in the classroom, or contribute $50 toward the materials/ staff development fund. If you feel it would be difficult to contribute, please speak to the fundraising coordinator when she calls to arrange to help with another fundraiser. Planned annual fundraisers include Book and cookbook sales, the Estes Park Duck Race and a Wine Tasting and Live Auction!
If you are interested in other ways of helping, please fill out our Parent Volunteer Form!
