tuition assistance funds & grants
CHRIS HOLABIRD TUITION ASSISTANCE FUND
Mr. Holabird, who founded LES in 1980, was a strong advocate for tuition assistance and the vital role it plays in making independent school education accessible to families from a wide range of socioeconomic backgrounds.
By helping bridge the gap between a family's financial resources and the cost of tuition, these programs open doors for deserving students who might otherwise be unable to attend. Beyond supporting individual families, tuition assistance enriches the entire school community by bringing together students with diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives.
It reflects our commitment to equity, inclusion, and the belief that every child deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive.
