Tuition Information
Making high-quality education accessible to all
Affordability represents an important part of our mission. We seek to balance the sometimes competing values of providing exceptional learning experiences and fair wages and benefits for our educators, all while keeping costs affordable for families.
We never want cost to prohibit a family from enrolling. Below, you can find tuition information as well as opportunities for tuition assistance.

Tuition Assistance
Think Small

Ramsey County
Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP)
Ramsey County runs the Child Care Assistance Program for our region. Families might be expected to contribute a co-pay. To learn more, click here.
Monarch Montessori School
Internal Tuition Assistance
We know that the programs listed above can have long waitlists. Additionally, families might not qualify for either but still cannot afford the full cost of care. For these reasons, we fundraise to offer internal tuition assistance based on household size, household income, and availability of funds.
