What should a parent ask Fig Tree Montessori before enrolling?

Five questions get most of the answer; ask them in this order.

1. Are you flagged for the Florida scholarship, and which Step Up programs do you take?
2. What will I owe for my child's grade once the scholarship is applied, and which registration, book or uniform charges fall outside it?
3. What other help do you offer, such as need-based aid or member and sibling pricing?
4. By which quarterly EMA date can you submit my child's enrollment?
5. Which of the disability categories you report do you have room for right now, and do you accept FES-UA for on-campus therapy?
