About this Event
Join Maine Montessori Association for a joyful day of connection and collaboration. We will learn about the referral process for early childhood in Maine and changes that are being implemented or on the horizon for Child Development Services. We will also learn more about special services that are helpful to address communication, behavior and other needs in early childhood. During the lunch hour, participants can tour Freeport Montessori School (a hop, skip and a jump from the library) and learn about the cultural kits MMA has available to interested members.
