We believe that Kroka needs to be accessible to ALL students, regardless of their background.  From the beginning, Kroka’s commitment to accessibility has widened our community to grow to include families from our local neighborhood to the small farms and back roads of rural New England and the busy streets of Boston, New York, and beyond.   More than 50% of Kroka families receive financial aid through one of these three methods:

• SLIDING SCALE TUITION – offers tuition rates matched to different family income levels.

• GENERAL SCHOLARSHIP FUND  – offers additional tuition assistance through a simple one-page application form

• LEGACY SCHOLARSHIP FUNDS – see below

Scholarship Endowment Fund

As a part of our 2018-2020 Capital Campaign we began to establish a $500,000 endowment as a seed fund that will grow over years to come to support the needs of the next generation. The endowment fund will have restricted use for student scholarships only. This fund will perpetually grow through reinvestment and on-going fundraising, independently and professionally managed by the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation, and responsibly invested in alignment with our mission. We are still working to reach our goal of $500,000. Please help make Kroka accessible to all by donating to our Scholarship Endowment Fund!
