FCMS - The Big Give - Make a Difference

Fort Collins Montessori School's annual giving campaign is on! Thanks to the families and friends who have supported us in the past, we have made great things happen. Let's keep the momentum going. Join us in making an even greater difference. Every gift—big and small—will have an impact.

HOW GIFTS WILL BE USED

Funds generated from the 2021 FCMS Big Give are being directed to the school's General Fund. Through the General Fund, FCMS will:

— Maintain competitive staff pay and teacher development
— Make up for tuition not collected as a result of pandemic tuition reductions
— Continue to provide tuition assistance to those in need
— Purchase supplies and materials

Your gift will have a direct impact on and make a difference in the lives of our students and their families, our teachers and staff, and children in the greater Fort Collins community.

The concepts of the “whole-child”, “mixed-age groupings”, family involvement, and community are integral to the Montessori approach. These philosophical and educational concepts involve engaging the intellectual, physical, emotional, social, and spiritual aspects of each person in a setting with younger and older students working and learning together in community. Children are given the opportunity to work in a prepared learning environment in which highly trained Montessori guides assist each child’s academic and social development. Our school will create an atmosphere in which children are intrinsically motivated, enthusiastic, responsible, committed life-long learners who exhibit an undeniable personal strength in their knowledge of self at each stage of their growth and development.
