We have a special prayer request for everyone during this Christmas season. Suzanne Lewis, the beautiful soul behind The Studio, and a great friend of Hilltop Montessori School, passed away this morning. She had battled cancer for years with grace and patience. Father Matthew Gossett was praying with her while another priest was offering Mass for her as she passed to her eternal reward. Suzanne’s support for Hilltop made it possible for us to begin our toddler program last year, and her generosity, prayers, and encouragement greatly helped us during a difficult period. Our Elementary students have benefited from the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd atrium that she has maintained at The Studio, and we were allowed to use the stage space at The Studio for the original stage production our students put on two years ago. Please pray for the repose of her soul and the comfort of her family and friends. Eternal Light grant unto Suzanne, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon her. May her soul, and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
(This photo was taken at the Children’s Corner last winter. Suzanne had come to set up a small Christmas market where children could purchase inexpensive gifts to give as presents.)

Laying out the entire decanomial with bead bars leads to learning more about squares, and eventually how they become cubes… The Tower of Jewels is the result of a large work done by children in elementary. #montessorischool #montessorieducation #steubenville #hilltopchildrenshouse #steubenvilleohio #montessori #montessoriinsteubenville #ElementaryMontessori #Montessori #math #montessorimath

7 years ago today we opened our doors to students for the first time. The last 7 years have been filled with many blessings, many surprises, many students, and so much amazing support from friends near and far. Thank you to everyone who has accompanied us in our Montessori journey thus far!

It’s a bit chilly and rainy, but we were still excited to get some New England apples and pumpkins at @berlinorchards to bring back from fall break for school activities! Sketching and baking, yay!

One student laying out the golden bead material to continue learning how to count beyond ten, another student taking a pencil and ruler to paper to explore how equilateral triangles nest within each other. Math and geometry in Montessori are never boring. #montessorielementaryschool #montessoristeubenvilleohio #montessori #montessorimath #montessorigeometry

It’s #GivingTuesday 2020. Like so many other worthy charities we are seeking your support.
We began this year in spite of COVID with twelve children. Since we do not wish ability to pay to be a barrier, seven of those twelve have received some level of tuition reduction.
As you can see in the photos below from our Instagram feed, it has been a pleasing year thus far. We have added:
- a dishwashing stand where children can learn to wash and dry their own dishes after snack;
- a knobs and screws work for the children to learn how to use basic tools;
- aprons and oil cloth underlays to increase the number of children who can do pouring works;
- some outdoor tools for raking leaves;
- more books for our reading corner, among other things.
Our ask for #GivingTuesday is two-fold:
Large Needs
Heating and Ventilation: First, if you can give a large amount, it will help us shore up our aging heating and cooling system. Our furnace, air conditioning unit, and ductwork are very old and need to be serviced badly. Such work doesn’t fit into the regular budget, so an emergency could be catastrophic for us.
Outdoor Works: Second, we would love to provide an outdoor space where children could go to do outdoor works in a secure and well-designed yard. This requires a retaining wall and fence around the perimeter.
Larger gifts will help make these possible sooner rather than later.
Smaller Needs
For those who cannot give a large amount, would you consider becoming a monthly donor? Monthly donors are the lifeblood of our operations, allowing us to plan for the future. We are looking for 20 new donors at the $20 level by the end of the year. We have nine new monthly donors, could you help us close that gap with a first $20 monthly donation?
Whatever you give, we thank you from the bottoms of our hearts. God bless!
