Keystone Montessori Parents Organization  

September 12, 2011

WELCOME BACK!!

The Keystone Montessori Parent Organization (KEMPO) extends a warm welcome to parents new to the Keystone community and all returning parents. 

If you are new you might ask "What is KEMPO"?  KEMPO is a non-profit organization made up of all the parents and children of Keystone.  It was set up to provide the children of Keystone with some "extra" materials and activities that are not part of the everyday curriculum.

Last year KEMPO was able to provide:

     A moveable balance beam was purchased for the playground that all the children could enjoy 
    "Mrs. Junkbox" presented a fun talk about recycling and made puppets with the kids 
     National Geographic magazines purchased for each classroom
     Grant money was given to each teacher to order new Montessori materials for every
        classroom

This year we would like to be able to provide even more for the children of Keystone.

The KEMPO board this year consists of :

Co-President: Carla Vogel - (daughter Jocelyn in EL) 
Co-President : Natasha Sass (son Ryan in morning 1/2 day)
Treasurer: Darcy Beall - (son Ethan and daughter Janelle in afternoon 1/2 day)
Secretary : Karen Uttecht - (daughter Drema and son Jackson in EL)
