Hershey Montessori School seeks to attract and maintain a diverse student body from a variety of cultural, economic, and geographic backgrounds. Financial aid is available to new and returning families.
Scholarship Opportunities
Although the majority of Hershey Montessori School’s tuition aids are based solely on a family’s demonstrated financial need, a few select middle and high school students will be eligible for merit scholarships. Scholarships will be based on the student’s strength of academic record, personal leadership skills, and anticipated contributions to Hershey Montessori School.

SHORT-TERM BOARDING OPTION:
Short-term boarding sessions offer local day students the chance to experience the immersion and independence of living, working, studying and socializing with their peers and community members from around the world for the period of eight weeks. Students join the community in making meals, doing chores, working on the farm, and participating in after-school creative or physical expressions. Short-term boarding students will be expected to participate fully in the life of the farm and to take on the increased responsibilities of handling their own daily lives. Day students can choose either a 5-day option, from Sunday evening through Friday afternoon and go home on weekends, or board full-time through the weekends.
