Tuition
When you choose to enroll at VMS, you’re making a valuable investment in your child’s future. We understand that choosing an independent school for your family is a significant investment and commitment, and we provide generous financial assistance through our Strong Start Scholarship to help close the gap between our tuition costs and your family resources.

Strong Start Scholarships
VMS is committed to socio-economic diversity, and believes all children should have access to quality education and care. Every family applying to Vineyard Montessori School has an opportunity to apply for a scholarship. Please email headofschool@vineyardmontessori.com for more information about financial aid.
Enrollment
Current families are offered the opportunity to re-enroll their children and age appropriate siblings before new families are accepted. Each spring, after current families have committed to returning in the fall, the Head of School will begin to communicate with the families on the waitlist. If you are still interested in a space for the fall, you will be asked to submit an Enrollment Contract and a non-refundable $300 deposit which will be deducted from the year’s tuition. Payment plans are available for the remaining tuition balances:
Sibling Discount
You may deduct 4% off of the lower tuition of an enrolled sibling. The sibling discount cannot be combined with the prepayment discount given in Option A. All deductions will be verified by VMS before payment will be accepted.
