EFA and ANH Montessori School
ANH Montessori School was on the state's list of EFA participating schools for 2024-25. 19 of its roughly 46 students (41%) paid with an Education Freedom Account that year.
That ranks #32 of 40 participating schools in Pulaski and Saline counties by number of EFA students. Its EFA share is below the local average of 48% across those schools.
Of those EFA students, 95% continued in the program the next school year and 79% stayed at ANH Montessori School. Statewide, schools kept 84% of their EFA students on average. Students who graduated count as leaving.
On the nationally norm-referenced tests participating schools must give, ANH Montessori School's EFA students averaged the 46th percentile in math and the 45th in reading, near the national median of 50. Statewide, EFA students averaged the 57th and 59th.
Paying the balance
Montessori programs often start before kindergarten. The EFA begins at kindergarten (age 5 by August 1), so pre-K years are paid privately or through other early-childhood aid.

Questions to ask the school
- How do you bill EFA families: directly through ClassWallet each quarter, or do we pay and get reimbursed?
- What is the full cost for my child's grade, including registration, books, uniforms and fees, and what's left after the $7,208 account?
- Which discounts and aid apply on top of the account?
- Which nationally norm-referenced test do you give, and will you share my child's results?
