Rodrigo Flores's Journey to getting accepted to Columbia University. ✍🏻
My college application process began last year during my junior year of high school. In December, I discovered QuestBridge through social media, and by February, I applied to their junior program, the College Prep Scholars (CPS). As part of my acceptance into CPS, I attended the online National College Conference, where I had the opportunity to interact with admission officers from some of the country's most prestigious colleges and universities. On December 2nd, I received my acceptance letter to Columbia, which included a full-ride scholarship. Although I will never know if I was accepted into the other eight schools, I am both happy and grateful to call Columbia my home for the next four years.
Partnership with the Boy Scout Camp🌲🌲
Pleasant Lake Montessori is excited to announce a new partnership with the local Camp Chief Little Turtle Boy Scout Camp! This collaboration will provide the students with outdoor educational experiences and opportunities to develop skills in teamwork, leadership, and environmental stewardship. Look out for upcoming events where students can participate in fun activities at the camp!

EXCELLENT ATTENDACE FOR QUARTER 2⛄
Hendry Park celebrated excellent attendance for Quarter 2 with indoor snowball activities and a snowball showdown from a special surprise guest snowman.
On January 17th Ryan Park PTO helped the students and staff celebrate being named one of the best elementary schools in Indiana by US News and World Report. Earlier this year Ryan Park received an email from US News and World Report that they were being highlighted as one of the best elementary schools in Indiana based on the scores in comparison to other elementary schools in the state of Indiana. Ryan Park PTO bought a banner that was unveiled on January 17th as well as treating each student and staff member to a cupcake for all of their hard work and dedication over the past school year. We are extremely proud of our school community for helping achieve this award.
