In true Montessori practice, our students have been engaged in hands-on, experiential learning while nurturing plants in the greenhouse, caring for their growing environment, and developing real-world skills through a microeconomy model. This event is a celebration of their independence, responsibility, and stewardship of both nature and community!

DCS Montessori reached a spectacular milestone at the Recent Quandary Peak Regional Tournament, where both Odyssey of the Mind teams secured first-place finishes in their respective divisions. teams not only dominated their categories but the Vehicle team was also honored with the OMER Award, a special recognition for their exceptional teamwork and positive competitive spirit. Meanwhile, the Classics team earned the highly coveted Ranatra Fusca Creativity Award, an accolade reserved for teams that demonstrate extraordinary "outside-the-box" thinking and risk-taking. This double-victory and dual-award sweep highlights the incredible ingenuity, collaboration, and dedication of our students, and we wish both teams the best of luck as they carry this momentum forward to the State Tournament on April 11th.
