Applications are accepted year-round. Our priority application period runs each fall, from September through December, and priority applicants are contacted in January. Applications received later are placed in our waiting pool until an opening is available.

We serve children from 3 months old through 9th grade. Our classroom communities are:

• Montessori Mornings, our infant and caregiver class (3 to 18 months)
• Toddler (18 months to 3 years)
• Primary (3 years through Kindergarten)
• Lower Elementary (1st through 3rd grade)
• Upper Elementary (4th through 6th grade)
• Adolescent (7th through 9th grade)

We invite you to register for a tour, where you will experience our classrooms in motion. Our school has two tour pathways:

• Early Childhood Pathway (infant through Kindergarten): Wednesdays and Fridays at 9:30 a.m.
• Upper School Pathway (1st through 9th grade): Tuesdays and Wednesdays at 1:30 p.m.

Each tour lasts about 30 to 45 minutes, so please arrive a few minutes early. You will need a driver's license for our visitor check-in system. Registration is required and space is limited. Tours are for adults only, with the exception of infants who can be worn by a caregiver. Our school is located in South Huntsville on Chaney Thompson Road.

Each admission decision is made with care to ensure the best fit for both the child and the classroom community. Because enrollment is limited by available space and classroom balance, submitting an application does not guarantee placement. Families whose children are not immediately offered a space are placed in our waiting pool and contacted as openings become available.

Our Admissions Team will contact you to schedule an Admissions Conversation, followed by a Family Interview. Applicants to our Primary, Elementary, and Adolescent programs are also invited to a student visit day, where they meet potential classmates and experience the classroom. If a placement is offered, you will complete enrollment paperwork within seven days to hold the spot.

Tuition is set each year by our Board of Directors following approval of the annual budget. You can view current rates and estimate your cost on our Tuition and Fees page.

Yes. We offer need-based aid through FAST, limited MSH scholarship funds, and support through the Rocket City SGO, and many families can use Alabama's CHOOSE Act. See our Financial Aid and CHOOSE Act pages for details.

Re-enrollment for current families begins each December, with instructions and deadlines sent by our admissions team.
