Tuition and Financial Support
Lilac Montessori is committed to creating an inclusive and accessible community. We offer a limited number of tuition assistance spots to support families from a range of financial backgrounds.
Our flexible, need-based tuition program is designed to make our school accessible while maintaining a balanced and diverse community.
Families with low to moderate incomes are encouraged to apply and learn more about available options during the enrollment process. We also partner with state-funded childcare programs and accept tuition assistance programs including CDA, YMCA, and MCCYN.
If you have questions or would like to learn more, please reach out to us at info@lilacmontessori.org.
If Lilac feels like a good fit for your family, we invite you to schedule a tour.
The child who has felt a strong love for his surroundings and for all living creatures, who has discovered joy and enthusiasm in work, gives us reason to hope that humanity can develop in a new direction.
- Dr. Maria Montessori
