Four children. Four swings. Four approaches. All valid.

Is this an analogy for Progressive education? 🤔

"We take care of ourselves, each other and our environment." This community agreement is found in Miquon rooms from Nursery through the 5/6. 

Though our Meadow Nursery friends may be too young to sign their names onto the agreement they collaboratively created, they can still pledge their commitment with... handprints! Very official indeed, I say.

A huge thanks to all of our families who postcarded their neighborhoods to advertise for our Nov. 2 Open House! We appreciate you helping us get the word out about Miquon to new families.

Check out our stories in the next week or so for a related mini-contest. Stay tuned.
