ANNOUNCEMENT
We will continue to operate through May 30, 2025 and we will then close our doors. We are taking steps to document and archive our student-driven and inquiry-based curriculum that we have developed over the past decade. We are grateful to the Compositive community for your support over the past five years.
Tuition & Financial Aid
We understand affording private school tuition can be a challenge and we are proud to support our families with a sliding scale tuition model. Be sure to apply early to secure a sliding scale tuition spot! Please note that sliding scale tuition is only determined after a family has completed the admissions process and been accepted to the school.
Contact our Admissions Office for details on how to apply for sliding scale tuition.
FAQs
Tours allow you to see not only Compositive Primary’s building, but also the students and teachers in action during the school day. Open houses occur during the evening or weekend and involve a building tour with an administrator as well as the opportunity to view the classrooms and meet several teachers. Tours and open houses are optional steps in the admission process. We host a few open houses each fall, and tours are offered throughout the school year.
No. All materials are provided in the classrooms so we do not request school supplies at the beginning of the year. There are optional fees charged to students who sign up for the extended-day and Deep Dive programs. Teachers may ask for voluntary supplies, such as used cardboard boxes, for special projects.
The inquiry form enables us to keep prospective applicant families informed of ongoing news and admissions events.
We do not require cognitive testing. In addition to completing an application, parents and prospective students will participate in a tour and group or class visit during the admissions season. We request applicants for kindergarten and older to submit a teacher recommendation and school records.
Applications are accepted in the fall prior to the admissions school year. We do not accept applications any earlier on a waitlist basis.
We are excited to meet prospective families and students. Please refer to the open house and tour link on the admissions page of our website for our current visit schedule. You may also email us at admissions@compositiveprimary.org or call 720-452-2522 x2 to schedule a visit or ask questions.
Everyone is welcome at Compositive Primary.
Our youngest students begin Compositive Primary at age three. Children must be age appropriate by September 1 for the classroom/grade to which they apply. For example, a child must turn age three by September 1, 2025 to apply for the 2025-2026 school year’s three-year-old classroom.
There are two age three/four classrooms (50% of each age). The mixed age groupings will also occur in the kindergarten/first, second/third, and fourth/fifth grade classrooms.
We offer a customized full-day program for all of our students, regardless of their age.
Three and four-year-old classrooms: 16 students
Kindergarten – fifth Grade: 18 students
