Contacting Sunstone

Telephone: Call 503-768-3847 between 7:30am and 5:30pm.  The front desk will direct your call or take a message.  Guides and assistants are generally not available to speak on the phone during class time and can best be reached via email, but time-sensitive messages may be left with the front desk.  If you reach voicemail, please leave a detailed message.

Email: Staff directory is published in the parent’s portal of the website under “Directories. ” Email is an effective way to communicate when an immediate response is not necessary.  Sunstone’s email addresses follow the pattern: first-initial-last-name@sunstonemontessori.org, without the hyphens.  For example, John Smith would be jsmith@sunstonemontessori.org.

In-Person: To meet with a Guide in person, please arrange an after school date and time via email.  Administrative staff are usually available during the school day.

 Drop Us a Note: Feel free to drop off a note for any staff member at the front desk.  We’ll see that it gets to the right person promptly.
