School Year Calendar

Reston Montessori School gives your child the opportunity to participate in a Montessori environment while offering working families the advantage of an extended care program. Although we offer this advantage, we are first and foremost a school. Therefore we do have time off during the school year for holidays, parent-teacher conferences and teacher workdays. The tuition has been calculated to include these times. Although we do our best to plan the calendar properly, unforeseen events may cause changes to the schedule. We will try to give as much advance notice as possible if changes are made.

Inclement Weather Policy

During the winter inclement weather may force us to close the school for the entire day, open late, or close early. All parents are urged to plan now for the care of their children in the event of a schedule change.  There are extra days built into our school calendar, therefore we do not make up for days the school is closed.

Inclement Weather Plan

The school follows Fairfax County Public School closings and delayed openings on the first day of a major weather event.  On the days following please consult the RMS website or message machine for school closings and/or delayed openings.  For school closings and delayed openings we take into account the following:

On occasion the school may choose to operate on a modified schedule, opening at 9:00am and closing at 3:30 pm. This schedule helps ensure the safety of the students, parents and staff when traveling to school in the morning and home again in the evening. Please consult the school website for information regarding early closings.
