Yr 6 students visit MS for morning & recess

Dear Year 6 Families,

Re: Moving up to Middle School

We are happy to let you know that we have spaces for all Year 6 students to move up to Middle School next year and we would welcome  having your child continue with us at Clanmore as they enter the amazing, yet vulnerable, stage of young adolescence.

At this time we would like to share with you the process for Expression of Interest and invite you to join us on Friday November 20th so that each family understands our Montessori Middle School and how it is similar and different from Upper Elementary and from traditional Middle Schools. 

Expression of Interest process:

• Student and parent visit to Middle School

• For students –  Friday, November 20th, 2026 for the morning. This visit is for all Year 6s. Please let us know if you would like your child to opt out of this visit

• For parents – Friday November 20th at noon. Parents join the Middle School and their child for a community lunch followed by a teacher presentation and Q and A for parents. Please RSVP to teachers@clanmore.ca  by November 9th to let us know if you can join us for lunch.

• Complete the Expression of Interest follow up work which will be sent home and emailed to you after the lunch visit. There is a bit of work for students and parents. Please submit hard copies to your teacher or electronically to teachers@clanmore.ca by Friday, December 11th, 2026.

• In early December, re-enrolment information will be sent home to all families. Re-enrolment deadline is January 29, 2027, with an early-bird deadline of January 22, 2027, the same as the rest of the school.

Please feel free to approach the school with any questions along the way!
