Admissions Policy

We enroll students year-round depending on space and cannot guarantee a start date for your student.

Admissions are based on a balance of available spaces for each age and program level and the student’s readiness for the level of independence required in a Montessori classroom. Admission preference is given in the following order:

1. Children currently enrolled at MIR.

2. Siblings of current students with these conditions:

• The current students are re-enrolled during the re-enrollment month (February).
• The older child is completing or on track to complete the full three-year cycle of their program.

3. Children with a minimum of one full school year of previous Montessori experience.

4. New applicants.

Sibling Enrollments

If you have a child currently enrolled at MIR and would like to enroll a sibling, notify the admissions office by emailing admissions@mir.org.

You will need to follow the full admissions process before enrolling siblings. Once you have completed an observation, you may submit sibling applications during the early re-enrollment month (February) for a discounted application fee. Applying during the re-enrollment month does not guarantee a space for the sibling. Siblings are given priority consideration for enrollment.
