Thank you for your interest in Beacon Hill Nursery School for the 2027-2028 school year! We strive to make Beacon Hill Nursery School accessible and affordable to all families interested in pursuing a Beacon Hill Nursery School education. Financial aid is a key resource in making this possible.
All Financial Aid is awarded on basis of demonstrated need.
The school uses RavennaFinancial Aid to collect and analyze financial aid applications. New for the 2027 school year, RavennaFinancial Aid has partnered with TaxStatus where families applying for financial aid can provide consent for their IRS tax data to be directly sent to their financial aid application, eliminating the need to manually upload tax documents such as 1040s and W-2s.
