Children enrolled in school must be 3 years old by October 1st and completely
toilet trained. We limit the total school enrollment to 28 children each day. The school does require a 1 month tuition deposit, which
is non-refundable after March 1st. This deposit is applied to the very last
month your child attends school. Unlike most Montessori schools, you
may be released from your contract due to a job transfer which necessitates you to move, as long as you give the school a 30-day
notice and, in that instance, the school would use your deposit money as the
final month's tuition payment. You are not required to pledge time, money, or
material to the school, as in most other Montessori schools.
The average staff/child ratio is 1 staff member to every 8-10 children. The academic class time and Montessori work time ratio is as follows:
Kindergarten class meets on M/T/Th. Children who need to attend school 4 or 5 days per week may do so. There is a one time kindergarten materials fee of $200, which is due with September's tuition.
Compare out staff/child ratio with the New Jersey State Minimum Guidelines. Unfortunately most nursery schools and learning centers accept these minimum standards.
