We have found it - Enquiry Tracker!”

Austin Montessori School is the oldest Montessori school in Central Texas. A crucial part of our admissions process is prospective parent education courses which inform parents about the Montessori philosophy and pedagogy. Priority is given in the waiting pool to applicants whose parents have attended these events. Enquiry Tracker allows parents to register for events on our school website. Each attendance is seamlessly linked to the parents’ original inquiry, allowing us to make efficient and accurate admissions decisions.
