let's get started
We are so excited to meet your family!
Our process is straight-forward and easy to begin.
See the steps below and get in touch today!
the process
01.
After reviewing our tuition and calendar below you may book a tour online here or call to schedule. Plan to spend at least an hour with us to see our beautiful campus, experience each classroom in action, get an overview of the Montessori philosophy, and learn what Counterpane is all about. There will also be time after the tour to ask questions. The tour is designed for adults but children may attend if necessary.
2.
Child Visit
Depending on the age of your child, we will offer a morning, full day, or multi-day child visit. Your child will be a student for the day, working alongside our teachers and students to make sure our environment is the right one. There is no testing; the teachers will work with your child to check their academic and soft skills, and your child will have the choice to participate in all work and activities to truly experience all our school has to offer.
03.
Paperwork
We accept students on a rolling admissions basis throughout the year and we have no registration fees. Caregivers, staff, and the student will all work together to decide if we are a good fit for your family. If everyone is in agreement then you can sign the forms, pay tuition, and enroll! From the very first day of school, we know you will see the difference Counterpane can make as your child begins to find their passions and realize their potential.
