Grounded and Soaring

Grounded and Soaring

The stakes for a child’s education are always high, but something is different now. We all feel it. The world our children will inherit is filled with promise and peril. They will have unparalleled opportunities to create, to build, to fulfill their potential, and they will have to navigate just as many distractions and shifting tides. We launched Grounded and Soaring because parents need help, and we at Marin Montessori School have years of experience that we want to share. Grounded and Soaring explores what it means to parent and educate in today’s world.
