 The last week in February is traditionally the time to celebrate the success and history of the Montessori Method during International Montessori week. This year is a very special year for Cowles Montessori as we are celebrating our twentieth year with the Des Moines School district as well as celebrating 107 years of Montessori education. Nationally recognized Montessori Education Week starts February 23 to March 1, 2014. The Cowles community will be recognizing the contributions of Dr. Maria Montessori, as well as learning about what it is to be a Montessorian and the power of peace. Cowles will be celebrating February 24th through the 28th. Cowles will be promoting further understanding of Montessori education in our community. Some of our activities will consist of a whole school art project that closely involves students, family and staff. Our students are collaborating on a school assembly that covers the various timelines surrounding Montessori Education.
