Activity Fee
For all Grades, an additional fee is charged to cover the cost of classroom activities, class trips, and the School yearbook. For Grades Five through Eight, the Activity Fee also includes team uniforms and transportation to and from games. In Grades Six through Eight, overnight trips are included in the fee as well (the Sixth Grade trip to Washington, D.C. and the Seventh and Eighth Grade trip to the Adirondacks as well as a second trip connected to their curriculum studies).
The Far Brook Fund
Fundraising plays a critical role in the viability of all independent schools, and Far Brook is no different. We must raise funds each year to help meet the operating costs of the current budget as tuition alone does not cover the full cost of an independent school education. The School depends on the contributions made by current families, alumni and their families, grandparents, foundations, faculty, administrators, and friends. Gifts to The Far Brook Fund support academic programming, faculty development, equity and inclusion work, tuition assistance, technology, art, drama, athletics, and so much more. Far Brook must raise $425,000 for the 2025-2026 school year. Current family participation has averaged 77% over the past 5 years – well above the national average.
Other
After School Enrichment Programs, special tutoring, camp, and private music lessons are available at additional cost.
Far Brook admits qualified students of any race, religion, gender, color, sexual orientation, or national or ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, gender, color, sexual orientation, or national or ethnic origin in the administration of its educational policies, admission, tuition assistance, or other school-administered programs.
