Enrollment
Because enrollment is always changing, Alyssum Montessori encourages all interested families to apply for the school year in which they are interested.
Alyssum Montessori School no longer has openings for the 2022-2023 school-year, so can no longer consider applications for children ages 3-12. We are accepting inquiries about the 2023-24 school year. At this time, we do not have openings in our elementary program. We do have some spots for 3 and 4 year olds. Once our classes are full, all applicants will be added to our waitlist and contacted as enrollment changes. If you are interested in our primary program, please follow this inquiry link to share your interest in our Montessori microschool.

Tuition
Our 2023-2024 tuition rate is $7800 per child for 3 & 4 year olds and $8800 for students Kindergarten through 6th grade. This rate is intended to be an “all inclusive” rate so no extra fees will be added on top of this set amount. After school care is a separate cost. Alyssum participates in the Indiana School Choice Scholarship Program and accepts vouchers from the state for eligible K-6 families. We encourage you to start a conversation with us about how we can help you meet your goal for a Montessori education for your child. Please don’t let finances keep you from considering Alyssum as an option.
