Anacapa School is proud to announce the Distinguished Scholar Merit Award for new students entering Anacapa for the 2016-17 school year. This scholarship, a one-time opportunity in celebration of the school’s 35th anniversary, was approved by the Anacapa board of trustees in March 2016.
The award will offer tuition assistance to qualified new applicants of merit in 7th-12th grade and is intended to provide an opportunity for students who are seeking college preparatory academics and who will benefit from our small school setting. There are several Distinguished Scholar awards available.
