Tuition

Our full-day program (8:00 AM–3:00 PM) offers a high-quality Montessori education with an intentional access model. Tuition ranges from $8,000 to $20,000 through a simple, trust-based sliding scale. We work with each family individually to make tuition manageable.

Tuition can be paid in full, monthly, or on a weekly schedule, depending on what works best for your family. A 5% discount is offered for families who choose to pay tuition in full up front.

We also accept child care vouchers, which can cover full tuition, and a sibling discount is available for families enrolling more than one child. Founding families enrolling for our inaugural year may also be eligible for additional tuition support.

Aftercare is available from 3:00 PM–5:45 PM, with tuition set at $590 per month. Financial aid is available on an individual basis.

We also offer a summer program for enrolled and incoming families. Details and pricing will be shared soon.

We welcome families who are new to Montessori as well as those already familiar with the approach. Please feel free to reach out with any questions at: info@inkwellmontessori.org
