City Garden Montessori School is grateful for the opportunity to partner with families in cultivating a nurturing, inclusive, and academically rigorous environment where every child can thrive and grow. We will periodically make revisions to the Family Handbook. The updated version will be available here.
City Garden volunteers play a vital role in helping our school community grow and thrive. Whether you're lending a hand behind the scenes, helping at events, or sharing your skills in other ways, your time and energy make a real impact.
