Coffee with the Counselors - Feb 18

February 09, 2026

Parenting Children with Big Feelings

Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.”

Children often reveal their truest feelings and biggest emotions when they feel safe and closely connected to the adults in their lives. For parents/caregivers, riding the waves of these big feelings can feel overwhelming and challenging to navigate while staying true to ourselves.

Join School Counselors Ann Van Buskirk and Katie Polanco on Wednesday, February 18, at 8:45 am to explore ways to build your children's inner strength while still supporting their emotional well-being.

Kindly RSVP using the link in Springmont Weekly News so that we can plan seats and breakfast treats. Please feel free to include any questions or thoughts you may have.

Today is National Retro Day, and what could be more retro than a bead curtain?!? Parent volunteers from Jeanie’s Primary Class helped the children string beads to create a colorful bead curtain as their Auction art project! Inspired by the golden beads and the bead chains used in the math area of Primary and Elementary classrooms, this project requires fine-motor skills and the ability to follow a pattern. Thank you, parents; we can’t wait to see the finished project! #nationalretroday #beads #montessorimath

Over the last few weeks, Chelsea’s Primary class has had a steady stream of wonderful parent volunteers visiting to help with their Auction art project. After using pastels to create scenes on black paper, these young artists are pin-punching shapes to create a collaborative star-and-moon collage. This masterpiece is sure to attract some competitive bids at our April 25th Starry Garden Nights Auction! Get your Early Bird tickets now! https://qtego.us/l/springmont/tickets/event-tickets
