Admissions
At Children’s Meeting House Montessori School, we are committed to creating a learning environment that supports the development of each child and fosters a strong partnership with families. Our admissions process is designed to ensure that our Montessori program and school is a good fit for your child and your family’s educational values.
To begin the admissions process, we ask that all prospective families first complete an inquiry form or schedule a tour of our campus. This initial step allows us to get to know you and gives you the opportunity to learn more about our Montessori philosophy, classrooms, and community.
An application will be provided after a tour or inquiry is completed. This helps ensure that we are entering into a thoughtful and intentional process, aligned with our goal of mutual fit and long-term success for the child.We look forward to meeting you and sharing more about the Montessori experience at CMH! Please contact Jessica Anderson, Director of Admissions and Advancement, anderson@cmhschool.com with any questions.
Open House – January 25, 2026 10am-12pm
When prospective families visit CMH’s open house, they’ll experience a vibrant Montessori community where children are supported, challenged, and inspired to grow into their fullest potential.
Our holistic approach nurtures the whole child — academically, emotionally, socially, and physically — at their own pace and to their personal best. Students thrive within a layered support system that includes multiage classrooms, three-year learning cycles, Montessori-certified faculty, and uninterrupted work periods. Creativity and curiosity are valued just as highly as academic achievement.
Families will learn how CMH students master core subjects like math, science, and language at a comprehensive, hands-on level. Learning is movement-based, collaborative, and rooted in decision-making, time management, and critical thinking — life skills formed early and carried forward.
Our campus sets us apart. CMH is the only Montessori school in Cincinnati located on seven acres of woods and meadows, surrounded by hundreds more. Students hike, garden, compost, and study nature daily — guided by our full-time naturalist staff, a unique offering among local Montessori schools. They explore ecology, zoology, botany, building a deep, lasting connection with the environment. From insect metamorphosis to gardening, students learn patience and results
To make the most of the open house, families are encouraged to ask questions, observe classrooms, and envision their child in this setting. Meet our faculty, talk with current families, and explore how independence and collaboration are woven into every part of the day.
What we most want to share is this: CMH is more than a school. It’s a place where students are known, respected, and empowered — prepared not just for academic success, but for a meaningful life beyond the classroom.
