Admission

At Discovery Montessori, we work closely with families to ensure that our school is a good match for each applicant and their family. We look for children and parents of diverse talents, backgrounds, experiences, and cultures who will benefit from a cooperative, nurturing environment where students are challenged to reach their full potential.

Parents are welcome to tour the school, meet with a teacher and observe a classroom in session prior to submitting an application.

Application Submission

An application for the September to May academic year must be completed and returned to the Discovery Montessori School with a $100.00 non-refundable application fee. The Application Form may be downloaded from the link on the left navigation.

Please note that prior to enrollment, a child must demonstrate independence in using the restroom to enter our Programs (no diapers or pull-ups are allowed).

Before and After School Daycare

Before and after school care is available to all our full time students enrolled in any of our programs for an additional cost. Before school care program is available from 6:00 am to 9:00 am. After school care runs from 3:000 pm to 5:30 pm. The children in these programs enjoy a wide range of activities including arts, crafts, computers, cooking, sports and outdoor play. Elementary and Middle School students will have time to work on homework. A wonderful staff, many of whom have been at Discovery Montessori for several years, care for children enrolled in the School Care program.

Tuition

Tuition is based on an annual cost (Setember through May) and may be divided into 9 equal payments for your convenience. Because this cost is based on an annual amount, months with holidays will have the same amount due as those months without holidays or breaks.

Payment Plan

Annual tuition and before and after school care fees are paid on a monthly basis with nine equal payments. The payments are due on first of each month beginning on September 1 and continuing on the first of each month through May. A late fee will be assessed for payments received after the 10th of each month. If payment or arrangements have not been made by the 15th of each month, services will be suspended and your child will not be allowed to attend until the account is brought current.

Contract

Your child’s space will only be reserved upon receipt of the enrollment contract, activity fee and first months tuition.
