Welcome Prospective Parents

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about Village Montessori School. Each day at our school is an exciting new opportunity to enrich the minds of our students, and we hope your child will join us.

Village Montessori School welcomes students regardless of race, gender, national and ethnic origin, and is non discriminatory in all our policies. We accept children between the ages of 18 months and 15 years old. VMS offers toddler, primary, elementary, and adolescent level Montessori programs. While it is presumed that all children will advance from one program to the next, entrance into each new program requires either an evaluation for readiness or a recommendation from the student’s teacher.
​
Primary class candidates apply for an educational program wherein the final year is the child’s kindergarten year. All applicants are expected to complete the Montessori primary program, as this is a crucial part of the child’s culmination of learning in this curriculum. A multi-age classroom community thrives when older children share their wisdom with younger students. The mentorship aspect of the environment provides the older child opportunities for growth, both intellectually and socially, not present in a single-aged setting. Please note: Acceptance of siblings of children whose parents elect to not complete the program is at the discretion of the administration.

Please contact us regarding availability for your child, and to schedule your personal tour of our school. We will be happy to answer your questions and provide additional information about our educational programs.
