Thank you for your interest in our Montessori Preschool! We fondly refer to ourselves as KMCP. We believe that our program is unique to our community, in that we offer a strong academic program through a nurturing, Montessori inspired curriculum and methodology. Furthermore, our emphasis on “positive discipline” gives your child the best first start in life.
Admission Process For New Families:
Step 1: Schedule an appointment with our Director to tour the school.
- KMCP Tour Availability – Please use this link to schedule your tour today.
- You can also call the school office at 336-993-2379 or email us at: KMCPInfo@kernersvillemoravian.org to set up your appointment.
- We encourage you to bring your child to this appointment, so our staff is able to meet your child. This tour will be to view our preschool during school hours and to provide you with information about our preschool.
- The Director will explain our school programs, pricing, and policies while giving you a tour of the classrooms and playground.
Step 2: Submit an application.
- Given that you are interested in enrolling your child here at KMCP, the next step will be for you to submit an application.
- This application provides our preschool and our teachers with information about your child. We manually review each application prior to the enrollment and payments process.
Step 3: Schedule a time frame for your child to attend a Trial Day in their intended classroom.
- After submitting your application, we ask that your child attends a Trial Day here at KMCP to ensure that we will be a good fit for your child and for your family. We will arrange this Trial Day with you based on the best day for you. We ask that your child joins us from 9:00-12:00pm that day.
- Your child will join their anticipated classroom to meet our Teachers and their potential classmates, and will be observed by both the teachers and the Director to view your child’s readiness for KMCP.
Step 4: After your child has completed this step, the Director and Lead Teacher will discuss your child’s time in the classroom to determine your child’s readiness for KMCP and our Montessori environment.
- Given that we are a good fit for your family, enrollment forms will be sent to you to submit electronically.
- At the time of enrollment, KMCP requires an enrollment fee and a deposit, which will all be explained to you at the time of enrollment.
Step 5: Your child is enrolled! Welcome to KMCP!
Thank you for joining our family! At that time, you will be included in all communications from KMCP, including our ‘Montessori Monday’ weekly newsletters.
Tuition Information:
- Tuition is paid in 9 equal installments from September 2024 to May 2024.
- Tuition is due on the first day of the month. There is a 5-day grace period. After that, you will be charged a $25 late fee. If you are late 2 months in a row, that is grounds for dismissal. However, if there is a family emergency, please let the Director know and we will do our best to accommodate you.
- There is a 10% discount given to Kernersville Moravian Church members and for subsequent children, after the first child has paid the full tuition.
- The signed registration and “Program Choice” forms represent a contractual agreement with KMCP and the parents to enroll their child for a full school year, and therefore, pay a full year’s tuition.
- 2 checks will be required upon enrollment:
- A $100 check for your child’s Registration and Activity/Supplies Fee.
- A Deposit check in the amount of your child’s monthly tuition payment. If your child is removed from KMCP within their contractual academic year, this deposit will not be refundable. Upon graduation in May 2025, your deposit will be re-paid to you.
