2. Schedule a Meeting with Head of School or Director and Class Teacher
Once we receive your admissions application, we will get in touch to schedule a school visit and meeting with the class teacher.

3. Submit Requested Forms
If you child has already attended school somewhere else, we request their records to review. Records can be uploaded via the TADS admissions application.

4. Interview with Head of School and Class Teacher
The Head of School or Director and Lead Teacher will meet together with you to answer any questions and to ensure that Laniakea Montessori School provides the type of educational experience that you desire for your children.

5. Enrollment Status Notification

Once it is determined that a child, family, and the school are a good match, acceptance will be offered based upon the following criteria:

  • Classroom space availability;

  • Whether the prospective student is a sibling of a currently enrolled student;

  • Balancing of ages and genders in each classroom;

  • Date of application.

6. Submit Enrollment Agreement & Registration Fee
Upon acceptance, your childʼs space in the class is reserved for 2 weeks. Before the end of the 2 week period you will need to complete the remainder of the online enrollment process, remit the registration fee, an online tuition agreement. Once the agreement is received or the 2-week reservation period ends without notification of your intent not to enroll, all fees become non-refundable.
