Admission
Growing Minds Montessori Academy (GMMA) is currently accepting applications for children in the 0 - 3 and 3 -6 year age range. At this time, we only offer a part-time program, with hours of operation on Monday through Thursday, 8:30am - 1:00pm.
Although we would love to enroll as many children as possible, we are a small school and so need to limit our enrollment availability. You will find application directions below. If we are not able to enroll you for this current school year, we do offer a waitlist option for future opportunities.
To apply:
1) Submit a completed Enrollment Interest Form by email.
2) When the form is processed, a school representative will call to schedule an interview.
3) If selected, further details will be provided about any additional policies and documentation that will need to be submitted prior to your child’s first day.
