65th Anniversary Merit Scholarships
In celebration of The Country School's 70th Anniversary, the Board of Trustees is offering merit scholarships to students applying for admission to Grades 4-8.
The merit scholarship recipients will be chosen based on their academic performance and potential shown in their applications.
Any student who submits their application by February 3, 2025, will be considered for a scholarship. Award winners will be informed of their merit award with their admission decision on March 5, 2025.
To accept the scholarship, students must send a short essay to admission@thecountryschool.org within two weeks of being notified. The essay should explain how they will benefit from a Country School education and engage in the school community.

The Country School expects these recipients to enhance the school's community and enrich the experience for everyone. Additional financial aid may be available based on need.
