Creative Montessori accepts applications for its Toddler, Pre-school and Elementary programs year-round. Acceptance of new students depends on the number of openings available after slots are filled by returning students. Vacant slots are filled on a first-come, first-served basis, providing the applicant meets the pre-admission requirements. If all current slots are filled parents may elect to have their child placed on a waiting list.

Applications can be taken for newborns or anticipated arrivals for parents willing to pay a onetime application fee to be placed on the waiting list.
