The full tuition scholarships are open to incoming freshmen and sophomore students for the 2016/17 school year. To qualify for a scholarship, students must be new to Clark School, have a minimum of a “B” average for the last two years, submit a personal essay or video on a predetermined theme, and submit two letters of reference.

“We are very thankful to the Clark School alumnus that is making this scholarship possible and respect his decision to remain anonymous,” said Jeff Clark, Head of School. “At Clark School we don’t teach to the test, we teach for success.
