An anchor of the Union-Schenectady Initiative in the
College Park neighborhood is set to celebrate.
The Montessori Toddlers' and Children's House at 245
Park Place will have its grand opening on Monday, Oct. 25, at 4:30 p.m.
Members of the Union community are invited for the open
house and tours.
“We are celebrating the return of a Montessori
school to the City of Schenectady and all of the goodwill that made this
project possible,” said Kris Gernert-Dott, who runs the school with
Cecelia Oballe.
Gernert-Dott '86 said that Union's commitment to
College Park, through the Union-Schenectady Initiative, gave the pair the
courage to turn their idea of a Montessori Preschool into reality. She
also thanked contractor Bast-Hatfield Inc. for turning the fire-damaged
building into a schoolhouse at a reasonable cost.
