ELEMENTARY SCHOLARSHIPS
SCHOLARSHIP
Students entering grades 3 through 6 are eligible to apply for our Peregrine Elementary scholarships. We offer scholarships to students that show academic promise and are highly motivated to attend Peregrine. The scholarships provide half off the annual tuition and is continued for each year the child is enrolled at the school, contingent on satisfactory academic performance and social behavior.
The number of scholarship recipients depends on the number of applicants and school funding. Flexible Tuition and scholarship awards cannot be combined. Sibling Discounts and scholarships awards cannot be combined.
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
The composition may be in any medium or combination of media. For example, it can be a short film, a written essay, or photo essay. While it is acceptable for the student to obtain limited support from adults or other children, the composition must clearly be prepared and executed by the student. There is no specific restriction on the amount of content; generally, a text should be no more than five pages, a film no more than five minutes.
Please submit the composition in a form that is ready to review to our Admissions Administrator at our South campus office, located at 2650 Lillard Drive. The submission deadline for the 2023-2024 school year is March 17, 2023. If it is an essay, please submit a printed copy. If it is a film or photo study, please submit it on electronic storage (disc or thumb drive).
After submission, the candidate will be reviewed by the School Director and an elementary teacher. If you have questions, contact our Admissions Administrator via Admissions@peregrineschool.org or (530) 753-5500.
