Lab and FA….

Their website says they give an average of $32k in FA, and 41% of families receive FA or are placed there by public schools. Their 990 doesn't show grants to individuals, though, so that's interesting.

Interesting but to my knowledge there is no FA unless you get it directly from your school district. As they mentioned before, it is not easy to get and you must show your school doesn't provide adequate education/support for your child. Even if you do, there are not enough resources to be able to afford Lab. Sorry.

Lab School does offer aid. I don’t know how generous, but they do give it out.

Curious where Lab is accounting for FA on their 990. Because it's definitely not listed under Part IX, column (A), lines 1–3, which is where every other school lists their FA.
