Frequently Asked Questions - Montessori Schools

 


Where are the District’s current Montessori programs?

Three elementary schools offer the Montessori program in addition to a regular general education program: Daniel Bagley, Graham Hill, and Leschi.

Top
Will schools with Montessori programs be considered attendance area schools?

We currently have three elementary schools that offer the Montessori program: Daniel Bagley, Graham Hill, and Leschi and they are all attendance area schools. We could add more Montessori schools in the future.

Top
How will students enroll in the Montessori program?

Students must specifically apply for the Montessori program through the school choice process.

Top
Will students need to apply to the Montessori school even if they live in the school’s attendance area?

Yes. Assignment to a Montessori program is not guaranteed or automatic, even for students attending a school and/or in the attendance area for a school that offers the Montessori program.

Top
What about the pre-school Montessori program at Graham Hill?

Priority will go to those students who live inside the school’s attendance area, with the tiebreakers of sibling and lottery applied in that order. If there are any available seats after that assignment, they will be filled with students from outside the attendance area using the same tiebreakers.
