Continuing Montessori – Montessori Beyond 8th Grade

What does Montessori look like beyond 8th grade? Come and find out from Hershey Montessori Upper School students.

Adolescent development has unique challenges. Growth and maturation in cognitive, physical, emotional, social, and moral development is taking place. Traditional education systems are generally not equipped or inclined to nurture the whole adolescent in this development. Hershey Montessori School is, and we invite you to visit us on Tuesday, February 28th from 6:30 – 8:00 pm at our Huntsburg campus located at 11530 Madison Road.

Ohio Farm Bureau Federation Visits Hershey

Feb 14, 2023 | School News | 0 comments

Hershey Montessori School would like to acknowledge and give gratitude to Mandy Orahood, Organization Director at Ohio Farm Bureau Federation, for coming out to visit the Hershey Montessori Huntsburg Campus.

Guided by Hershey Montessori School student tour guides, Brigid and Claire, Mandy was introduced to the agriculture-related microeconomies and learned how these tie to academics and entrepreneurism.

The Ohio Farm Bureau is focused on growing the next generation of farmers and producers in Ohio. Along with trusted organizations like The Ohio State University, FFA (Future Farmers of America), and 4-H, Farm Bureau helps to promote career pathways, agriculture literacy, and provide economic opportunity, networking opportunities, and leadership development for young farmers.

Claire and Brigid talk about the microeconomy work.

Joyce explains the work of the students on the farm.

The students led Jane, Joyce, and Mandy on the tour.

Often, when we think of the lessons of grace and courtesy in the Montessori environment, we think of teaching and modeling socially acceptable behaviors and customs. Another aspect of grace and courtesy is the emphasis on learning to give back to the earth, humanity, and the community.
 
This Giving Tuesday, we ask our community of families, friends, alumni, and neighbors, to please consider a gift to support the education of a child. In today’s volatile world, families face many obstacles when making a choice about their children’s education. Your gracious gift today will provide financial aid to support a child of a family facing challenges in their lives. We are grateful for your grace and courtesy.
