Tuition and Fees
Tuition Rationale
The Island Montessori Academy tuition is based competitively on
surrounding independent schools and institutions while offering
the curricular excellence of a Montessori education. Since we
are a non-profit organization, our proceeds circulate back through
our program.
A higher tuition stimulates program growth, capital and scholarship
funds, and competitive teacher salaries, which will enrich the
IMA community in years to come.
Program Materials Fee
There is a $375 Program Materials Fee payable upon submission
of the Reservation Agreement and Enrollment Contract. This fee
is non-refundable. However, it is applied to the purchase of supplies
and materials for the student for the duration of their three-year
program.
Discounts
There is a 25% sibling discount for families enrolling more than
one child.
There is a $1,000 discount for St. Mark's parishioners in good
standing. This discount will be applied to the semester following
six months of said status.
Your family may be
eligible for more than one discount.

Tuition and fees are subject to change.

Our programs are not only designed as a childcare option for
families, but as a true Montessori preschool environment filled
with social and academic lessons. A daily program provides consistency
and fluency in the children's lives as they prepare for the
rest of their academic and social lives.

The Montessori elementary program is a highly competitive alternative
to traditional education. The first Montessori school was opened
100 years ago, with programs on six continents and almost every
state in the U.S.
Our Wednesday early release days are an integral part of our program.
They are designed to provide adequate teacher planning and program
development opportunities for our administration and staff. After
school care may be available for these days for an additional
fee.
