Childrens Magnet Montessori School

Children’s Magnet Montessori School describes its approach as a Montessori-based, hands-on, inquiry-driven education focused on developing the whole child across social-emotional, cognitive, physical, and academic domains. It emphasizes individualized guidance, independence, practical life skills, and active learning through core Montessori areas, while also integrating character development, STEM, and interdisciplinary study to build curiosity, creativity, critical thinking, and lifelong learning.

Children’s Magnet Montessori School in Owings Mills appears to use rolling enrollment rather than a posted annual deadline: families can start by requesting information or a tour, then complete the online CMMS enrollment form to reserve a spot for the Owings Mills campus. The form asks for the child’s and parents’ information, prior center history, requested start date, program/schedule selection, billing details, and an electronic signature on the tuition/policy agreement, and it requires a $200 non-refundable enrollment fee; after submission, the school says it emails instructions for the tuition deposit needed to complete enrollment. Key dates/requirements posted on the site include a requested start date on the form, written notice if that start date changes (the new date must be within 2 weeks of the original date), health records due on or before the child’s first day, and payment of the first and second month of tuition by the first day of school; for Honors/Kindergarten, age cutoffs are age 4 by September 1 for Honors and age 5 by September 1 for Kindergarten. The site also notes a four-week provisional period for first-time students, and says that if a family does not give proper written notice before the original start date, the child will be placed on a waitlist and must be re-enrolled. For priority categories, the only explicit one I found is CMMS’s Corporate Partnership Program, whose employees receive “Priority Status” on the waitlist and special consideration when spaces open; I did not find any other published admissions-priority categories specific to Owings Mills.
