ABOUT
When you begin with the belief that kids deserve an education as unique as they are, great things can happen. We exist because we believe that kids love to learn and can have fun doing so. At Roots, we are authentic, passionate, collaborative and curious – rising above easy to seek good. We believe in freedom with limits – structuring our curriculum to the Montessori philosophy and accrediting standards; we do not teach to the test. We guide each student to understanding then mastery, keeping the light within them alive.

ADMISSIONS
We want every student at Roots to be successful; to ensure a good match between applicants, their families and our school's programs and philosophies, we attempt to get to know you and your child in several ways throughout the admissions process.
Take a few moments to reach out to us with your questions and get some additional information about Roots and what makes Roots Montessori unique.
The best way to understand the value of a Montessori education is to experience our programs and our faculty first hand. Families are invited to visit our school for a tour during the school day or for any of the admission open houses or events.
Roots is a rolling enrollment school, so there is no cutoff date for applications. Applications can be submitted at any time and will be considered as long as space is available. However, for greatest consideration, please review the recommended application dates below:

You and your child will be invited to attend a Meet & Greet Session with one of our Early Childhood Teachers*. This will allow us to work with your child on some activities and answer questions parents may have about their child's readiness for the program.
* please note that due to the large number of applications and limited number of spaces available, not all applicants will be invited into a Meet & Greet session. This is a decision based on date of application and legacy applicants.
