At The Merit School, we are committed to working with families and establishing strong home to school connections. We believe that by working together we can help foster the educational support your child needs to get him or her off to a great start.
For this reason we have set up this Parent Resource page with information, games and articles on educational issus. We also have provided some links to resources our teachers use in the classrooms. We will update these periodically, so be sure to visit this page again.
The Merit School values the trust you have placed in us for the care and education of your young child. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to help you nurture your most precious resource.
