THE DONOHO SCHOOL FINANCIAL AID

Financial Aid
Financial assistance may be available to families of students who qualify. Consideration for financial assistance will only be offered for students currently enrolled at The Donoho School, or for whom acceptance for the next school year has been confirmed. Financial assistance offered may cover up to 30% of the yearly tuition fee.

Students transferring to The Donoho School who plan to participate in athletics are not eligible for financial aid during the first year of enrollment. (AHSAA Handbook, page 52, Bylaws – Administration, “SECTION 11. RECRUITING. A student that transfers to a member school and receives any financial aid shall remain ineligible at that school for one year.”)

Miss Griffyn Pendley assumed the role of the president of The Donoho School today and conducted the business of the school on behalf of Mrs. Hurd. This honor was a package purchased at the Donoho Parents’ Association auction last year. Miss Pendley conducted staff meeting, visited classrooms in all school divisions, attended Rotary meeting, granted the fourth, fifth and sixth graders extra playground time and granted all faculty, staff and students a casual dress day. Miss Pendley had a busy day and we enjoyed having her assume the role of the president. Great job, Miss Pendley!
