Our Admissions Process
We welcome applications throughout the year and enroll students in August and January. While our primary enrollment periods are August and January, mid-year enrollment may be considered on a case-by-case basis, depending on available space.
​
For families planning ahead, admission offers are typically made in March for August enrollment and September for January enrollment. We encourage interested families to apply early, as spaces in our Montessori classrooms are limited.
​

ASSESS
If we believe we may have a space available for your child, we will invite you to schedule a visit with one of our lead guides. These visits allow us to get to know your child, observe how they engage with the Montessori environment, and begin to understand how we can best support their development and learning.
​
For Toddler applicants, the visit takes place with a parent or caregiver present and lasts approximately 30 minutes. Primary applicants are invited to spend approximately 30 minutes in the classroom independently. This gives them an opportunity to explore the prepared environment, meet the guides, and experience the classroom community.
​
Elementary applicants are invited to spend a morning shadowing in the classroom. During this time, students have the opportunity to participate in the work cycle, engage with the materials, meet their potential classmates and guides, and experience the rhythm of a Montessori Elementary classroom.
