May River Montessori is a nonprofit organization completely dependent on tuition as its principal source of income. We know and appreciate the sacrifices and hard work required to pay for your child’s education. The skills and love of learning your child acquire here will serve them well for a lifetime.

AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM

Whether attending one day or five, our after-school programs provide a safe, supportive, and stimulating environment tailored to meet the needs of our students and families.


Our Primary After-School Program offers a nurturing and engaging environment for fully potty-trained children attending full-day programs. Available 1 to 5 days per week from 2:30 - 5:30 PM, this program provides a seamless transition from the school day to free play, creative activities, and social exploration in a Montessori setting.

For Upper School students, our After-School Program is available 1 to 5 days per week and runs from 2:45 - 5:30 PM, offering a relaxed space, time to read or work on schoolwork or special projects, and free play.

TUITION PROTECTION FUND

The financial contract agreed to by each family is for the full annual Commission for the entire academic year for your children. The school cannot refund any tuition or cancel unpaid financial obligations if your child is withdrawn for any reason at any time during the school year. 


The May River Montessori Tuition Protection Fund provides the school with assurance that your financial obligation will be paid to the school if your child is withdrawn. 


The May River Montessori Tuition Protection Fund is self-funded, and all claims are subject to the terms and conditions of the agreement. Upon a withdrawal, a parent or guardian may submit a claim by providing a written letter of explanation and following the procedure outlined in the May River Montessori Tuition Protection Agreement. 


Participation in the May River Montessori Tuition Protection Fund is required for all student accounts not paid in full prior to the 1st of August each year.
