Admissions Frequently Asked Questions

  • The Primary School (located in Millcreek) begins with students as young as 12 weeks old to 6th graders. Secondary School (located in Sugarhouse) continues the Montessori Inclusion method for students 7th-12th grade.

  • No, we do not offer these types of programs at Elizabeth Academy. Our priority is giving the best experience we can to each child who enters our school. We strongly believe that our staff’s efforts should be focused on their Montessori classroom and students during the school day.

    There are some after school clubs offered to students such as Montessori Model UN, Art, Dance, Theater, Math Club, Ski Club.

  • Since our Montessori classrooms are multi-age/grade classrooms as well as being inclusive we have to look very closely at the age of each applicant as well as what supports they may need in the classroom. As well as the spaces that we have in each classroom.

  • We do accept the Carson Smith scholarship and Children’s First scholarship for those that are eligible. Financial aid is available for returning students in elementary, middle school, and high school. First year students do not qualify for this aid. Merit based scholarships are also available to upper elementary and secondary students.

  • Elizabeth Academy has families apply each year to maintain up to date information on the child. Children change so much in a year and we like to look at the most up to date information during the enrollment season. If you have applied in a previous year and been in our wait pool we do make those applications priority.
