Give the Gift of Montessori Education
MCS RI is the only Montessori school in the state committed to eliminating the financial obstacle that many families face in enrolling their children in an excellent educational setting. Our school ensures that a family's finances don't exclude them from accessing high quality early childhood education for their child(ren).
Give the gift of a Montessori education with your tax-deductible donation to Montessori Community School of RI. Your gift will go towards ensuring that children in Providence, whose parents could not otherwise afford MCS RI tuition, have access to a life changing early childhood educational experience.
We are the first Montessori school on the South Side of Providence and the ONLY Montessori school in RI that serves families, regardless of economic status. We can only reach this goal with help from donors like you!
Ensuring socio-economically diverse representation in our classroom community is important to us, and critical to our goal to provide equitable access to high quality early childhood Montessori education here in RI.
MCS RI is the only Montessori school in the State that participates in the child care subsidy program, accepting RI Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP). Many families do not qualify for subsidies but cannot afford to pay the full cost of quality care. For these families, MCS RI awarded almost $250,000 in tuition assistance based on need.
"We are confident that our son is loved and in a place where his spirit is being nurtured in the highest regard. This is so special, and rare. We have total trust in the teachers [at MCS RI] and appreciate their core beliefs about children. As a result, we have seen [our son] flourish into a confident and self-reliant 3 year old; one who is caring and self-directed, able to be empathetic and resourceful. He feels like his interests and abilities are being nurtured, and he can share his sense of confidence with us." -MCS RI Parent
