Admissions
Kingswood Montessori Academy accepts children from 18 months through 5th grade. Although Kingswood will accept students in the elementary who have not had a Montessori experience in pre-school, the pre-school education is at the base of our learning pyramid.
Kingswood reserves the right to deny enrollment to students who have developmental problems that interfere with the student’s learning process. If the student can adapt, the facility is open to him, but if a personal aide is required, the school does not share this cost.
