Notes for Prospective Students
Our admission process and criteria vary according to the age of
prospective students and the programs to which they are applying.
In general, our process seeks to determine to what degree the
prospective student demonstrates intellectual curiosity,
self-motivation, and age appropriate behavior. The student
screening process also involves a meeting and observation period
involving the school director, one or more teachers, and the
prospective student and his/her parents or legal guardian. We seek
students and their caretakers who will benefit from and contribute
to our vibrant and diverse school community. We welcome students of
any race, color, religion, national, or ethnic origin. We value and
celebrate the diversity the enriches our world through the customs,
traditions, and perspectives of people of different cultures,
religions, genders, and socioeconomic groups. We believe that
diversity is an essential component of a quality education and that
it encourages the respect for and empowerment of the individual
while discouraging the formation of stereotypes and prejudices. Our
school population reflects the diversity of the world in which we
live. Enrollment offers are extended based upon several factors.
Determining whether there is a match between the family's and the
school's education goals for the child is the primary
consideration. Siblings of current students and student alumni are
given precedence. Our minimum standards for admission and
continuing attendance include a determination of whether the child:
is age appropriate for the emotional maturity range of the class
fits within the academic curriculum range for the class respects
other individuals and acts in accordance with the school's
behavioral standards exhibits respect for self and demonstrates a
motivation to learn One of the school's goals is to maintain an age
and gender balance within each classroom. Each application will be
reviewed by an admission committee comprised of the school
director, the Montessori program director, and the prospective
child's homeroom teachers. A non-refundable application deposit and
tuition deposit must be made in order to secure classroom
placement. When full occupancy exists, applications are considered
for our remaining spaces on an 'as-available' basis and subject to
our enrollment criteria.
