Applications are considered based on the following criteria:

Siblings of currently enrolled students and children of staff members are given first priority. Heartwood attempts to achieve an equal number of boys and girls and an age range balance in each classroom. Consideration is given to previous Montessori experience. New applications are reviewed in the order in which they were received.

Heartwood’s reenrollment period for families currently in the school begins in February. By the first week of March we will inform you if there is a space for your child for the upcoming school year. If there is no space at that time, you may continue your application for any mid-year availabilities if you so desire.

Notification of placement will be done by email. At that time, a non-refundable application fee of $200 and a $450 tuition deposit are requested within one week.
