Three rivers montessori 2021-2022 enrollment update

image807

As a charter school Three Rivers Montessori holds a yearly lottery for enrollment. The TRM School Board is currently assessing how many seats will be available for the 2021-2022 school year based on a possible building expansion. Therefore, TRM plans to release applications on our website in late February.


The Application Process

  • You must fill out the appropriate application (correct school year*) for each child you intend to enroll for each child to be accepted into the lottery. 
  • Applications for the 2021-2022 school year will be released on the TRM website in late February of 2021.
  • The date an application is submitted does not determine the likelihood of acceptance, however all applications need to be returned within the specified time frame to be placed in the lottery. 

*Please note the application for the 2020-2021 current school year is also available on the website should you wish to add your child to the waitlist for this school year.


The Lottery Process

  • First, current families will be asked about their plans to continue enrollment for the next school year which will determine the number of seats available for each grade.
  • The lottery will be held during a regularly scheduled board meeting in the spring. Each child has an equal and fair chance of being selected for an open seat for his or her grade. 
  • At the completion of the lottery, the parents or guardians of students entered into the lottery will be informed of the results by mail, email and on the TRM website. 
  • If there is a waitlist for a grade, your child will be placed on the waitlist in order of when his/her name is drawn in the lottery process following any siblings of currently enrolled children. You will then be notified as soon as a space becomes available. 
  • Please note that siblings of currently enrolled children will have sibling preference. This means any open seats in each grade will first be filled with siblings of currently enrolled students. If the number of siblings exceeds the number of available seats in that grade, the lottery process will be followed placing siblings on the waitlist for their grade in order of which their name is drawn. 
  • After the lottery, students are added to the waiting list on a first-come-first-serve basis. Classroom openings will then be filled in the order of the waiting list.


Information will always be posted here on our website. You can also expect to see important information and reminders posted on our Facebook page.

About Us

What Is Three Rivers Montessori School?

Three Rivers Montessori serves Elk River, Rogers, Zimmerman, Otsego, and the surrounding Minnesota areas. It is a public tuition-free elementary school for students and parents interested in an authentic Montessori school experience.


What Is Montessori?


Montessori is based on the philosophy of education and human development. We see the child as a motivated participant in their education, learning through self-instigated actions on the environment. Because of this belief, we emphasize hands on learning, individualized lessons, and cooperative social interactions. Our curriculum is comprised of practical life, language, and mathematics. Geography, history, science, art, music, literature, and physical education are also included.  

Our Goal

We are open and beginning with grades K-6!     


In its first five years, Three Rivers Montessori intends to establish a thriving Kindergarten through 8th grade program within the boundaries of Independent School District 728 (including the Elk River, Otsego, Rogers, and Zimmerman, Minnesota areas). 


In Montessori terms this means lower elementary classes which serve 6-9 year olds, upper elementary classes which serve 9-12 year olds. 


In the following five years, and at its discretion based on enrollment and success of the elementary and middle school, Three Rivers Montessori intends to establish a high school serving 9th - 12th grade.


Three Rivers Montessori will be organized as a public non-profit organization offering a non-sectarian educational program.

Our School Mission & Vision


Empowering students to reach their full potential through authentic Montessori learning.


 Academic Excellence | Community Engagement | Environmental Stewardship
