Spirit Nights are a fun and delicious way to support our school! Families gather at local restaurants, enjoy a meal together, and a portion of the proceeds goes back to our school. It’s a win-win—great food, great company, and a great way to contribute to our school community!

We will update our calendar with the list of these events as they are organized.

Meanwhile, please join us for our first one at Panera Bread in Holly Springs on September 26th!

This year, we’re launching a year-long creative activity and fundraiser through Artsonia, the world’s largest online collection of student art. Students will be guided to create artwork in various forms, and they can now upload their favorite pieces for families to view online. Parents and family members can leave comments and order keepsakes featuring the artwork.

Stay tuned for more details coming soon!

Suggested by the CEC, we’re excited to announce the return of our Spirit Days! Held on the last Friday of each month, these optional “themed days” encourage children to dress in specific colors or outfits. They are designed to add a touch of fun as we wrap up each month and bring our school community together.

Watch this space for a list of upcoming Spirit Day themes!

Twice a year, we capture special memories with school picture days! In the fall, students have their individual photos taken, with an option for siblings who are enrolled in the school to be photographed together. These photos will be featured in the yearbook.

In the spring, we take class pictures, providing a wonderful keepsake of your child’s time with their friends and teachers.

Every year, we host an engaging book fair featuring a fantastic selection of fiction and non-fiction books from Usborne.

It’s a wonderful opportunity for children to explore new stories and expand their love of reading. Plus, the book fair serves as a valuable fundraiser, helping to support our school’s programs and activities.

Don’t miss this chance to stock up on great reads while supporting our community!

Twice a year, we host Parent-Teacher Conferences to provide an opportunity to discuss your child’s progress, review their individual learning plan, and set goals for the future. These meetings are a valuable time to connect with your child’s teacher and ensure that we’re all working together to support their growth and success.

Our classrooms love celebrating holidays like Thanksgiving and Valentine’s Day, creating a festive and joyful atmosphere for students.

We host Thanksgiving feasts, where students share a meal together, and during the winter break season, we focus on the spirit of giving, encouraging students to think of others and participate in acts of kindness. These celebrations are a cherished part of our school culture, bringing students together in meaningful ways.

Each class has their unique plan and schedule for these celebrations, so please make sure to check for messages from your child’s teachers.

Our open houses invite prospective families to step inside our classrooms and experience Montessori learning firsthand. Parents explore thoughtfully prepared environments, observe children working with focus and independence, and see the hands-on materials that bring our curriculum to life. Teachers and current families will be available to share insights, answer your questions, and offer a authentic look at our school’s values and daily rhythm. More than a simple tour, this visit helps you understand our educational philosophy and decide whether The New School feels right for your child and family.

Parents Night Out is the perfect opportunity for children to enjoy a fun-filled evening at school with their friends while parents get to enjoy a night out. Students will have a fun sharing a dinner, movie, and plenty of activities, making it a memorable experience!
