The Exhibit Hall in a Bag and the Montessori Materials Guide are two special opportunities intended to help you spread product and service information to Montessorians across the country in an easy and cost-effective manner. We initially deliver 8,500 copies of these two promotions with the Summer edition of the Public School Montessorian to every public and private Montessori school we have been able to identify in the United States. We continue to circulate them through the summer to teacher training centers, professional organizations and more. Your ads, product sheets, catalogs, brochures or flyers will arrive as the school year ends and a waiting audience of teachers and administrators develop their orders for the coming academic year.
Below you will find more information about these summer product and service promotional opportunities. If you would like to speak to a representative for more information or to schedule an advertisement, please call call (866) 565-2782 (toll free) or email us.
