ontessori schools are an invaluable part of the
local school system, providing individualized and
collaborative learning experiences based on the needs
of their students. But they also take time out to have
a fun filled family day, like the Montessori 5K Pirates and Princess
Fun Run, which took place on February 11 at the Fort Walton Beach
Landing Park.
The event was designed to cultivate relationships between the
local community and the school. It was also an opportunity to raise
funds to expand and improve their current curriculum and enhance
the school’s facility.
Sponsors, volunteers and participants came together to make this
Fun Run a huge success. The school was able to provide local families
and students with a day of crafts, face painting, exercise, and all
around fun!
