CAR LINE: ARRIVALS & DISMISSALS
Please be mindful that during arrival and dismissal, there are several piles of debris along the side of the road from the hurricane that will possibly impact some of the Discovery Car Line flow. Please take your time and be patient, as car lines may take a little longer than usual until the debris is removed. We appreciate your cooperation!

Here's how it works - parents/grandparents place orders for Montessori items and the school benefits by receiving a credit for free materials. These materials make great gifts for the holidays!
Just return the order form to Sara Schmalfeld by Friday, October 21 with checks made payable to The Discovery School.
