How to Apply
Are you interested in applying to our school?
We look forward to meeting you and getting to know your child! These steps will walk you through the process.
How to Apply
These steps describe our process.
1. Contact our Head of School
It’s never too early to begin the application process. Our Head of School can be reached via phone or email. Your first conversation will be a chance to let us know how old your child is and what program you are interested in applying for. We will invite you to schedule a visit to the school so that you may tour the campus and see in person what we have to offer.
2. Schedule a tour
Initial visits are scheduled for weekday mornings. This gives prospective families a chance to see the uninterrupted morning work cycle: a hallmark of Montessori education. Your visit will start with a tour of the school. Before you leave, you will have an opportunity to meet with our administrative staff to ask any question you may have. Please note that these initial visits are for adults only.
3. Submit an application
Online applications are available, or feel free to request a paper copy during your visit. Please keep in mind that spaces do fill early.
4. Secure your child’s enrollment
If your child is accepted to our school, we require that you send a deposit in order to secure their enrollment. Payment must be received within one week of notice of acceptance and will be applied toward your child’s tuition.
5. Join the community!
Connect with us on social media to find out about events and to learn even more about what we have to offer.
