Student Observation Day (grades 1-8)
This is a very important part of the Application Process. This is the day that your child comes to Summit-Questa for a “day of school”. They get a first-hand experience in how our Montessori classrooms operate as they join in the classroom as a student. They will participate in all of the day’s activities, lessons, specials, etc. They will be paired up with another student as a partner for the day to provide comfort and companionship. This visit also allows teachers to see how your child adapts to the environment.
Evaluation
Choosing a Montessori Education is a conscience decision. Carefully considering the fit of your child and our environment is important to the success of the student’s academic experience. This is not a formal evaluation but more of a personal conversation and consideration of how the unique nature of your child and our program come together to benefit all.
Enrollment
Our Admissions Committee will review all of the student’s information, grades and scores. If the student is identified as one who will benefit from enrollment at SQMS, an acceptance offer will be sent to the parents. The registration fee, tuition deposit and Student Enrollment Contract must be submitted to enroll. Tuition payment options and billing account information is also set up during this time.
Attendance
Once a student is officially enrolled, the Admissions Office will mail a New School Year Packet. This packet will include a few additional forms you will need to complete and submit to the Admissions prior to beginning school. It will also include important dates that will help you and your child as you prepare for the transition to Summit-Questa.
