Financial Assistance

A Parent’s Guide to Need-Based Financial Aid

The annual deadline for filing an application for need-based financial aid is March 1.

Kenston Forest School is proud to provide need-based financial aid to eligible families. School and Student Services by NAIS, a leading non-profit agency that joins with hundreds of independent schools, is used to support this worthy program. Frannie Schwabenton, our Director of Enrollment and Financial Aid, is available to assist you through this completely confidential process.

  • All financial aid grants are determined based on financial need.
  • We do not offer scholarships for sports or other activities.
  • Aid is available for students who are enrolled in Kindergarten through Grade 12.

Please know that the school has a strong commitment to providing need-based financial aid but there are limited resources.  Not every application results in a financial aid grant, and we cannot guarantee that all cases of demonstrated need will be fully funded.

Mrs. Schwabenton is happy to answer questions and assist families in all aspects of the application process. She can be reached at:
