Message from the Principal
Dear Wauwatosa Montessori School Family,
On Tuesday, November 21st the CH, LE, and UE classrooms will be having Classroom Community Pie Feasts! The hot lunch that day will also include chicken legs, vegetable, and cornbread (or something similar). The lead classroom teachers (CH, LE, and UE), kitchen staff, and office staff put heads together to come up with a manageable plan for pies. This will look a little different in each classroom. Parents/guardians/families, if you are interested in helping out, there are a couple of ways.
1. You can sign up to bring in all ingredients and equipment necessary to make one or up to 3 pies with a small group of students. Parents who sign up for this will have the opportunity to make pie(s) with ingredients they bring in with groups from one of the following classrooms; Mrs. Namboothiry, Mrs. Rosich/Mrs.Grassmann, Mrs. Zheng. A recipe, the ingredients and the utensils are decided upon by the parent who signs up. There are set time slots available.
`Monday, November 20th afternoon:
12:30-1
1-1:45
1:45-2:15
2:15-3
Tuesday, November 21st morning:
8:45-9:30
9:30-10:15
10:15-11
2. You can donate a pre-made, store purchased pie with all the ingredients notes including allergy information to the classroom.
-CH Ms. Shannon and Mrs. D have sent out communication about pies already.
-LE Parents/guardians, please simply add the pie type you would like to send in. Mrs. Rosich/Mrs. Grassmann will also be bringing in ingredients to do some pie making with the class. Mrs. Zheng would like prepared pies sent in, sign up here (scroll down a bit).
-UE Ms. Emily is sending out communication in collaboration with her room parent. Mrs. Namboothiry is sending out communication in collaboration with room parents.
-Extra pies for classrooms and silverware and plates sign up here (scroll down a bit).
*In total we are looking for about 5-10 pies for each classroom.
AP math is making applesauce, since AP celebrates March 14 as "pi day." Mrs. Myers reached out to room parents to assist. If you have any questions related to applesauce making, please reach out to Mrs. Myers.
Have a relaxing weekend!
