Greenhouse Montessori

How the funding fits

Every Arizona K-12 student can open an Empowerment Scholarship Account. For the grades Greenhouse Montessori serves, ADE's latest chart gives $4,718–$6,205 (K) and $7,105–$10,540 (grades 1-12); that chart is labeled 2025-26 (ADE estimate; the 2026-27 chart isn't posted yet), and the exact figure depends on grade and the funding formula for the school the child would otherwise attend. The account can pay tuition at a qualified private school that is set up as a ClassWallet vendor. The state keeps no list of schools that take ESA payments, so ask Greenhouse Montessori directly.

Greenhouse Montessori did not turn up on any STO's published school list when we checked (Oct 2026). Lists change, so ask the school which STOs its families use.

The school also has a preschool. The universal ESA starts in kindergarten, so ask about the school's preschool aid and look at DES child care assistance or Quality First scholarships.

Independent schools in the Phoenix area usually run their own need-based aid with a winter deadline, separate from any ESA or STO funding.
