Opening Items

Welcome and Land Acknowledgement: 

We, the community of City Garden Montessori, honor the Illiniwek (Eel-Ly-neh-wehk) people, the original protectors of the lands that we now call St. Louis, MO. We also honor all of the people impacted by the current pandemic in our own community and across the world, and those who have been harmed by racialized violence. Let’s now give a respectful and brief moment of silence. 

City Garden exists to redefine education by developing the whole child in an excellent,
inclusive, Montessori school; to reimagine community by creating spaces and systems
that help to restore our collective humanity; and to reinvigorate our world by creating a
culture in which individuals and communities thrive without disparities or barriers to
success.

Discussion and vote on whether to establish a MOU between City Garden and Atlas Charter School to allow Atlas preschool students to enroll at City Garden
