Students are admitted to our school without regard to race, color, religion, nationality, or ethnic origin. Priority enrollment for the following school year is given to students who are currently enrolled. Before a student is enrolled, a meeting with the administrator as well as a classroom observation by the parents is required. If applying to the elementary level, a visit by your child is required; at that time he/she will be assessed by the school. We prefer that your child visits for a whole day at the elementary program. All students enter the Montessori Learning Center on a probationary basis. Students entering the primary program must be toilet trained.

Admission Process ››

Step 1

Enrollment packets and applications are available from the school office. We encourage parents to review the informational materials to learn more about the Montessori Method and our school.

Step Two:

Parents can submit an application for their child. Please note that there is a $100 non-refundable application fee due with the application.

Step Three:

Once your application has been processed, parents will be contacted by the school office to schedule a visit and classroom tour. This is a great opportunity for parents to observe classrooms in session (please note that this visit is for parents only.)

Step Four:

At the primary school, a time will be scheduled for the parent to bring their child to get acquainted and for an observation. The principal will be able to assess student readiness and space availability for enrollment.

At the Elementary school, parents will schedule a time for their child to spend the day in the classroom. Your child will have the opportunity to take part in all classroom activities. The teacher will observe your child interacting in the classroom and prepare an assessment of readiness. Admission will be based on the teacher's recommendation and principal's observation of your child.

Step Five:

The school will notify parents regarding admission and enrollment status for their child.
