How To Apply
Are you interested in applying to our school?
We look forward to meeting you and getting to know your child! These steps below will walk you through the application process.
1.
Schedule a tour
Initial visits are scheduled for weekday mornings. This gives prospective families a chance to see the uninterrupted morning work cycle: a hallmark of Montessori education. Your visit will start with a tour of the school, followed by a chance to sit and observe a class at work. Before you leave, you will have an opportunity to meet with our administrative staff to ask any question you may have. Please note that these initial visits are for adults only.
2.
Submit an application
Online applications are available. Please keep in mind that spaces do fill early.
3.
Secure Your Child's Enrollment
Within two weeks of acceptance, you will confirm your child's enrollment by submitting a $500 deposit and completing the tuition agreement and payment plan.

“VMS has been an absolute blessing for us. We had our son during the pandemic and like many parents who had children during that time we were very worried about our child's transition to school. The staff was incredibly communicative and caring. They were deeply invested in our child’s success there and it truly felt like a partnership. We feel very fortunate to have found such a great environment for our son. If you are considering Montessori in the Harrisonburg area, I do not think you will find a place with better staff.”

“When it comes to our child's education and well being, we are very discerning. We had high expectations and lots of questions, going into the interview process. After the interview and our first semester at VMS, I can without hesitation, say that the staff and curriculum have exceeded our hopes. I am so thankful that such a tremendous space exists for our children to learn and grow."
