Prospective Parent Information Session
Our Prospective Parent Information Sessions are held regularly through the school year and during the Summer. No sessions or placements are made during the two weeks prior to the start of the school year. Our sessions are on a walk-in basis, but on-time arrival is important to getting the full experience. It is helpful to know a little about you before you arrive. If possible, please send us an email and let us know the age and gender of your child, the year that you are considering enrollment and when you anticipate attending our information session.
This first visit to our school is designed to give you an in-depth look at our program, facility and philosophy. We will start with a brief welcome and introductions, to be followed by a School tour. You will then be able to observe a classroom at work, sitting in on a children's house or elementary classroom, depending on the age of your child. The children are used to visitors and welcome the opportunity for you to observe them at work. (Toddler classes can only be observed through the one-way windows, as visitors disrupt the routine of our youngest students.) We reconvene after your observation time to answer your questions and to further discuss the Montessori philosophy and more specifically, our program.
These gatherings have proven to be a great way for families to learn about who we are as a School, and the environment and education we provide for our students and families. You are welcome to bring grandparents or friends with you, but due to the nature of the Open House, we understandably need this to be an adults only session. If, after reflecting on our program you wish to proceed with the enrollment process, the next step is to submit an application (distributed at the information session).
If you are relocating and have special circumstances, please contact our office to discuss your needs. Thank you for your interest in The Montessori School. We look forward to meeting you at a Prospective Parent Information Session.
