Fountainhead Montessori School 

Fountainhead Montessori Schools Educational Philosophy Dr. Maria Montessori revolutionized education with her dynamic theories, which are the basis for Fountainhead’s educational philosophy. Each child is an individual accorded the respect due to every person. At the same time, children are not miniature adults; instead they think and learn in ways unique to their special time in life. Fountainhead Montessori provides an environment for children to literally create themselves through purposeful activity. Children age 18 months to 6 years old experience and learn through all of their senses. Everything is hands-on. When activity is purposeful, developmentally appropriate, and, above all, fun, learning is joyful.

We wanted to share a simple (and fun!) way to support the dogs at Calpaws K9 Rescue.
On May 30th, we’re hosting a Texas Hold’em Poker Night in Livermore — a relaxed evening where you can enjoy good food, great company, and a little friendly competition, all while helping dogs in need.
Event Details: 
📍 940 Larkspur Drive, Livermore 
💵 $100 buy-in
Your seat includes: 
• Dinner 
• A drink ticket 
• $4,000 in chips to play
This event is open to all skill levels — whether you’ve never played before or know your way around the table, you’ll fit right in.
Most importantly, every dollar raised goes toward the dogs we rescue and care for. From medical needs to daily supplies, your support directly impacts their journey to a safe and loving home.
If you’re able to join us, we’d love to have you there. And if not, sharing the event or inviting a friend means just as much.
