Our program is structured to set the conditions for what we believe to be the ideal childhood educational experience. We reject compromise on any core aspect of child development, prioritizing very low adult:child ratios, the most passionate and qualified teachers, and a harmonious blend of outdoor discovery and intellectual development. We take seriously the financial commitment, planning, and sacrifice an MFS education requires of our families.
We are committed to making The Montessori Field School accessible to all admitted applicants. Need-based tuition assistance is available, and we are pleased to be able to offer assistance to a significant portion of our student body. If you are in need of tuition assistance, please complete the financial aid form at the bottom of your application.

There is a supply fee for all enrolled children. If enrolled, your application fee ($50) will be applied towards your supply fee for the upcoming school year.
