Admissions
& Tuition
Thank you for your interest in Tuckahoe Montessori School! Once you have explored our website, we encourage you to express interest through our website inquiry form.
Our Admissions cycle runs from August - March. In August, website inquiries will be invited to submit an Application for Admission ($50.00 fee). When your application is received, you will be invited to an Open House event in October.
Our Open House event consists of a brief overview of the Montessori curriculum and allows parents to explore our classrooms. Here, we will answer any questions about Tuckahoe Montessori School.
In January, our team will reach out to schedule a time for your child to participate in an Admissions event with our exceptional teachers. These events are tailored to your child’s age and may include a music class, playground playdate, or classroom visit. Based on classroom availability, we will extend new family contracts in March.
