The tuition-free, Pre-K-8 school in the heart of our neighborhood, Cleveland Metropolitan School District’s Tremont Montessori, has a new principal at its helm: Natalie Celeste. Celeste, a Montessori-trained educator, will steward the over 100-year-old, child-centered educational approach based on Dr. Maria Montessori’s scientific observations of children from birth to adulthood.
Tremont Montessori won a national award for its strong partnerships with families and community groups.
Cleveland’s public schools have a long way to go but are gathering momentum, CEO Eric Gordon said Thursday in the annual State of the Schools address.
CMSD has created the Family Partnership Institute to provide families with important information on District initiatives, goals, supports and more.
The first five meetings will allow the District to share data and collect feedback on academic quality, enrollment trends and forecasts, and building use and conditions. The next five will include presentation of “emerging recommendations.”
CMSD’ s new state report card shows growth that outpaces the rates of districts throughout the state.
