Happy December, MCOL families! As we bring the spirit of the Thanksgiving holidays to a close and begin to usher in the wonder of Christmas, I wanted to share a few of the things our team feels grateful for at this time of the year – Our team's expressions of gratitude must begin with each of you believing in our Felician-Sponsored ministry, aka Montessori Center of Our Lady, and choosing us to start your child's educational journey. For that, we extend heartfelt gratitude. We would not exist without the Felician Sisters' dedication, commitment, and desire to bring a Catholic Montessori school to Livonia. For three years, we have added new programs to the changing needs you have expressed. We have introduced our Nido (infant), Young Children's Community (toddlers), and our Elementary (first thru sixth grade) programs to a campus that previously served children ages three thru kindergarten exclusively. We are grateful for the opportunity to honor the Felician Sisters Core Value of Transformation as we bring the programs to our MCOL community that you need to make your professional and personal lives work. We are grateful to have come through the pandemic without having to close our center permanently, as happened to so many other centers, and keep our operating hours intact to the best of our ability. Lastly, but of equal importance, we are grateful for us and our work as a team, learning and growing together and individually. Our newest team members are enthusiastic contributors to all we do with our students. Our returning MCOL team members light the path that allows us to do our best for the children we serve as we combine our team member's many talents on behalf of the children we serve. Let’s take a look at the adaptation and refinement processes of the ages we serve (infants through sixth grade). We begin with a look at our Nido program.

Christmas greetings, MCOL families,

Hello, MCOL families!

Hello, MCOL families!

Children are born to be adventurous and our new outdoor wooded trails naturally fill their desire for adventure, while bringing our Montessori science curriculum to life! We are the first to say we are blessed to have such beautiful green space on our campus! We have a "commercial" playground, a bike path, open running spaces, concrete pads, and 12 raised garden beds our students tend. While we ❤️ love these incredible outdoor offerings, we longed to add wooded outdoor trails for the children we serve.
