Scholarship Program
In 2021, Medaryville Nursery School established the Medaryville Nursery School Scholarship Fund to award qualified students with discounted tuition in the final year of preschool before entering Kindergarten. All decisions are made by the Scholarship Committee of Medaryville Nursery School.
Medaryville Nursery School (MNS) Scholarship Fund is a partnership between MNS and parents who desire to provide a preschool education for their child. Medaryville Nursery School does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, sex, ethnicity, religion, or abilities in the award of scholarships. Funds for scholarships are available through generous donations of preschool, families, fundraising, and grant awards to Medaryville Nursery School. There are limited funds available each year. To be considered, a confidential application must be submitted to the Scholarship Committee for review. To protect the privacy of personal information, the applicant’s name will be hidden and the Scholarship Committee will review applications and allocate scholarship funds anonymously. |
Applications for the new school year are due by June 1st, following your child’s placement into the Medaryville Nursery School program. Financial need will be based on income, family size and family circumstances. Families may be required to submit further documentation for consideration of funds. MNS Scholarships are only applicable to the monthly tuition. Families will need to pay the full Registration Fee. Medaryville Nursery School Board will reserve a portion of the donated funds for students that move into the area mid-year, emergency situations or extenuating circumstances that may arise for families during the school year. The Board will send a letter to the applicant confirming or denying their request for scholarship funding by July 1st.
