Admissions Process

We are currently full for the 2024-2025 school year. We are now accepting applications for the upcoming 2025-2026 school year. 

Thank you for your interest in our school!

Our admissions process at Montessori Children’s School is thoughtful and thorough.  We want our prospective families to understand the Montessori Children’s School difference. Here at MCS, it is important for our future parents to experience that difference first hand with a guided tour of our campus. Parents are eager to understand the Montessori difference and how it compares to traditional schools. We invite you to call the front office to schedule a tour!
