Acceptance

Applicant acceptance is based on several factors, one of which is a successful match of the family's and the school's educational goals. Siblings of currently qualifying students and children transferring from other Montessori schools are given priority. New applicants are admitted for remaining spaces, while gender and age balance is maintained within the classrooms. Evaluations, test scores, or grades from an applicant's recent school, if applicable, also play an important part in the selection process. Each application is reviewed by the Admission Committee. The first notification of acceptance takes place mid-March. Accompanying the acceptance letter email are directions for completing enrollment online. A deposit of $1,000.00 and an annual Tuition Management admin fee of $50.00 will be required in order to submit the online enrollment contract for all students.
