Indexed Tuition
C'E Montessori is committed to the economic and racial diversity in our family body, so not every student is charged the same tuition. Families who apply and qualify for reduced tuition pay a tuition level that takes into consideration what they are able to afford, based on a calculation done through the school and Student Service (SSS), a financial service of the National Association for Independent Schools. The school considers this calculation together with priorities that we have developed to create and sustain diversity in our classrooms. Interested parties should fill out the application via our partners at SSS below. The school code for C'E Montessori is 200159.
