Financial Assistance

Barnhart's mission, We Grow Difference- Makers, calls us to action. It is essential that our program is also financially accessible to qualified applicants. We recognize that choosing an independent school for your child's education requires a significant financial commitment from families, and we strive to assist our families when the costs of our program might otherwise be out of reach.  

Our Financial Aid program is managed discreetly and respectfully, and we utilize a third-party, nationally recognized financial partner to assist us with the process. Submitting your request for financial assistance aid through the FACTS Grant & Aid system ensures a fair and equitable review of the requests we receive. Every family situation is reviewed carefully, and an individual decision is made based on all available tax information provided by the family.  

For more information about our financial assistance program, please feel free to contact our Business Office at 626-446-5588. We are here to help.
