Our Preschool and Kindergarten programs are open to children ages three (by December 31) through six. Registration opens to returning students and siblings during the month of January, and then opens to the general public mid February. New Student Application Forms are accepted throughout the year and are placed in the order they are received on a waiting list for the school year you request, provided your child meets the age criteria by the enrollment date you specify. Your place on HCAMS’ waiting list is not the sole criteria by which your child can be accepted to HCAMS. A child’s school readiness, as assessed by HCAMS Staff; the family’s willingness to participate in the school community through HCAMS’ Parent Guild; a Parent or Guardian’s commitment to their child’s education in a Montessori environment; and the age and gender distribution of the incoming class are all factors considered when HCAMS Staff considers your child for enrollment at the school. The Enrollment Application Process consists of the following:
To apply for admission, please call the office 646-5727 for an application and to schedule an observation visit. You may also download our application packet. We ask that parents initially observe the classroom without their child(ren) present, as this is least disruptive for both the students and observing parents. The admission process also includes an opportunity for your child(ren) to visit the classroom and to be observed by a member of our faculty.
