Grants

To ensure that our school embodies our core values of excellence, integrity, and diversity we have established a grant program that aims to make a Bennett Day education accessible to families from all income levels.

We are committed to maintaining a community of culturally diverse students from all backgrounds, regardless of financial means. Bennett Grants are variable, based on an individual family’s specific financial situation. Grant awards range from $500 to 100% of tuition expense, based on the calculated family need and circumstances, and the availability of Bennett Grant dollars in a given school year.

Bennett Grants are an ongoing commitment between the school and our families. The school anticipates that Bennett Grants will follow the child throughout their school career, reflective of the families’ need and circumstances. Grant recipient families submit a Bennett Grant application through a third party partner, FACTS Grant and Aid, each year. If you have any questions, please email the Bennett Grants Committee at bennettgrants@bennettday.org. If you would like further information, please see our Grants FAQ Section here.
