REGISTRATION FEE
A non-refundable $75 registration fee per child will be due upon the child’s acceptance into the program.

SUPPLY FEE
For you convenience, GMA will be providing school supplies for the children. Therefore, a $75 supply fee will be assessed prior to the start of school.

TUITION
Tuition rates are carefully considered on an annual basis as determined by the fiscal demands of the school. GMA offers three payment options – in full by Aug 1 (receives a 3% discount); two equal payments (August 1 and January 1); or in 10 equal payments (August -May). Tuition is due the first of each month and considered late after the 5th, unless prior arrangements have been made. Partial scholarships may be available. Please contact the office, (406)-652-1739.

DISCOUNTS
A 5% discount from tuition fees is available for the second and third child. A 3% discount is applied to tuition fees if payment of the full year’s tuition is received by August 1st. Due to ongoing expenses, credits cannot be given for absences or vacations.

ENROLLMENT
The Montessori philosophy is based on a three-year curriculum. We strongly recommend children be enrolled for at least two years to ensure they receive the maximum benefit of the program. Enrollment in the early childhood program is understood to be an intention to complete this entire three year early learning cycle.

 

If you have any additional questions regarding this process, or if you need to update your child's information we invite you to call us at 652-1739.
