Dear Parents:
Due to COVID Social Distancing and Cohort requirements We are unable to offer our Afterschool activities this year. Below is an example of what the programs will look like when they return.
We are pleased to be able to offer an enrichment program for your children. The activities have been chosen to balance intellectual, physical, small motor and concentration development, along with fun, relaxation and socialization.
We have been working to meet the needs and interests of all your children and hope you, as parents, will be actively involved in signing your children up for activities so no child will be disappointed because the activity of his choice had to be cancelled.
Guidelines for Activity Registration:
Fill out a separate registration form for each child.
In case an activity is filled by the time we receive your form, please list any alternate choice. DO NOT SEND CHECKS FOR THESE ALTERNATE CHOICES.
Send the following forms and checks to the administration office at your campus:
1. Registration form
2. Separate check for each activity made out to the Hudson Country Montessori School
Please return these forms promptly. We will make every effort to see that your child gets into the activity of his/her choice, however, since the activities are limited, registration forms will be accepted on a FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE basis.
PLEASE NOTE: If there is not sufficient enrollment for any activity, it will be cancelled. Below you will find the class schedule for Fall 2018. Offerings will be subject to change up until registration opening on September 5th, 2018. All classes will be held at the 44A Shelter Rock Rd, Danbury CT campus.

STEAM – Coding, Robotics & Makerspace workshops
STEAM. Science and Technology interpreted through Engineering and the Arts, all based in Mathematical elements. STEAM and Montessori are highly complementary, with their emphasis on the child determining what he learns through hands-on experimentation. We start with 3 classes of coding, using block coding for beginners or javascript, php or pyhton for more advanced coders. Next workshop is focused on robotics, using remote controlled robots and moving up to programmable motion controls. The final workshop is a Makerspace environment, where students can design, create and build objects with the 3D printer, Legos, or household materials. Students can sign up for 1, 2 or all 3 workshops.
