Montessori Childrens House and School Renovation Update

Montessori Childrens House and School is an AMI certified school for children 3-6 years old. Founded in 1970, we are one of the oldest Montessori schools in the Dallas area. The 38 year old original building is currently undergoing a major facelift. We are expanding and renovating the entire building for the first time in the school's history. This blog serves as an update for construction progress. For more information about the school go to mchs-dallas.org.

THE DAY AFTER

...the completion of the cabinetry installation the painters are in full swing. They are currently removing all the cabinet doors and covering all the drawer hardware so that they may begin applying the primer to all the new wood work. The last portions of the interior carpentry trim are being done today just ahead of the industrious painters.

Planning ahead is always a good thing. One of the requests from the staff was that we provide extra deep window sills (called windows stools in the industry) so that the children may place small plants on them. We have done exactly that.

While the work moves ahead inside, the outside is moving on as well. The demolition required for the new universally accessible sidewalk has been completed. The fence installers have now placed the posts for the courtyards and will be moving ahead next week. The iron, chain link and wood fences are all included in the next step of our exterior work.

And what would the blog be without an update on the Library. It is really a wonderful space.
