1. Private Tour of the School
These individualized tours take place during the school day. During your tour, we will discuss: Montessori philosophy, important characteristics of a Montessori school, and a description of the programs offered at OMS Montessori. You will receive additional information about your program of interest following your tour. Please book your tour here. If telephone is more preferable, please call Laura at (613)- 521-5185.
2. Apply to OMS Montessori
Return the application form to our office. *Applications for Elementary students must be accompanied by a $250.00 admission fee and a copy of the student’s most recent report card. Prospective elementary students are invited to join a class for one or two days as part of the application process and to determine that OMS Montessori will be the right fit for them.
3. Offer of Enrolment Contract
The final step in the process is to be offered a contract. Your child’s space is confirmed when once OMS Montessori has received the signed contract and deposit fee. Welcome to the OMS Montessori community!
Tuition
OMS Montessori is a not-for profit organization with a mandate to provide our students with the highest quality Montessori education while remaining sustainable for our current and prospective parents.
Our tuition fees are as all-inclusive as possible so we are not asking parents for additional money throughout the year.
