MAKING CONNECTIONS

Montessori School of Lake Forest’s annual spring benefit, “We Are All Connected,” was held April 22 at the renowned David Adler Estate in Lake Forest. Hosted by owners Adrian and Nancy Smith with a goal to connect and to celebrate our beloved school, the event raised more than $50,000. That money will be used to help fund the remodel of the school’s kitchen classroom—supporting a cooking program that provides hands-on experience for students as well as a garden-to-table experience connecting their cooking work with the organic gardening they learn on campus as well.
