Frequently Asked Questions

About the Admissions Process

Here are the questions we hear most often about the admissions process.

  • Can I drop by at any time for a school tour?

    It can be difficult for us to accommodate spontaneous tours. We are happy to answer general questions on the phone or by email. You may also schedule or request a tour online.

  • Who should attend the school tour?

    Both parents (if applicable & possible). The initial tour is best for adults only. Your child will have an opportunity to visit the classroom and the teacher at a later date.


    If you wish to bring your child, you are welcome to do so keeping in mind that the conversation will mainly be of interest to adults.

  • Is there a waiting pool?

    Yes, normally, depending on the program.

  • How far in advance may I submit an application?

    We do operate using rolling admissions. We begin offering spaces for the next school year in February.

  • May I request a specific classroom/teacher?

    We discourage parents from requesting a specific teacher or classroom. It is important for parents to commit to the school and the Montessori program, more than to working with a particular teacher.

  • What are the factors that determine my child’s placement?

    Depending on the openings that are available, our goal is to balance the classrooms by age and gender of the children.

  • Is there a sibling discount?

    Yes, there is a 5% tuition discount for the second (and third, etc.) child.
