Chapin School, like all independent schools, stands financially on its own.  Tuition covers only a portion of the cost of educating each student, with the remainder made up by endowment income, other revenue and fundraising.

Generous gifts from parents, grandparents, alumni, parents of alumni and other friends of the school help to ensure the outstanding academic program, caring faculty, small classes and a warm sense of community that characterize a Chapin education.  Parent participation in the Annual Fund is a crucial part of providing the financial support.
