Indexed Tuition
Think you can’t afford a private school education for your child?
Think again!
At MMS, we believe every child deserves a school where they are loved, cared for, and truly happy—every single day. Learning should be a joyful journey, where curiosity is nurtured, challenges are embraced, and confidence grows.
Our dedicated faculty creates an environment where students feel valued and inspired to push themselves, develop resilience, and strive for excellence. We don’t just teach subjects; we cultivate a lifelong passion for learning that extends beyond the classroom.
The results speak for themselves—90% of our 8th graders score in the 98th percentile in math, and 100% achieve advanced levels in reading. Our students excel in academics, the arts, and athletics, earning top national awards and over half a million dollars in merit-based scholarships each year.
Every dollar invested in an MMS education is an investment in a school where your child is challenged, supported, and truly known. We are honored to be your partners in this journey and look forward to another year of inspiring students to become informed, confident, and impactful leaders.
Indexed Tuition,
What Is It?
Milwaukee Montessori School is committed to making an MMS education accessible to families from a wide range of economic backgrounds. We offer indexed tuition, which allows us to match tuition to your family's income.
Indexed Tuition Ranges
2025 - 2026 Academic Year
Once your Indexed Tuition number is calculated, you can expect to pay from:
- $6,628 - $13,255 (for full-day students);
- $5,366 - $10,732 (for half-day students).
You can choose to pay tuition in several ways, depending on what works best for you.
Families can choose payment due dates of the 5th or 10th of each month and one of the following payment plans:
- over ten months from July - April;
- twice a year in July and January;
- or all upfront in July.
After-school care is indexed at the same rate as tuition.
Indexed tuition does not apply to our toddler program, early morning childcare, after-school clubs, lunch, field trips, private music lessons, academic tutoring, or athletic fees.
How It Works
To help us objectively assess what a family is able to contribute to education expenses, MMS uses a trusted third party, for our Indexed Tuition determinations.
Once your MMS application has been reviewed and accepted by our Admissions Committee;
- You will receive an online agreement for enrollment.
- While completing the agreement, check that you are interested in Indexed Tuition.
- Your agreement will be held while you complete the Indexed Tuition application.
- You will be notified of the Indexed Tuition determination and can finish the online agreement at that time.
- Families must apply for Indexed Tuition each year, and tuition can move up or down in line with a family’s economic profile.
