DWS is committed to doing what we can to support families who now believe they may no longer be able to afford a Waldorf education due to a change in their financial situation. Our new Stand Together Assistance Relief (STAR) Fund will offer on-time need-based financial relief for the 2020-2021 school year. Offering relief is done with a sense of deep commitment to our families and community.

Eligibility
• The Fund is made available to new and existing DWS families who are planning to or have committed to enroll in the 2020-2021 school year.
• Prioritization will be given to our current families. A small amount of funds will be made available for new families.
• Relief will be one-time for the 2020-2021 school year.

Application
• Applications accepted on rolling basis until September 1, 2020.
• Please only apply for necessary funding and consider the needs of the whole community.
• All information included in this application will be confidential.

Award Determination
• Awards will be made outside of DWS tuition adjustment and scholarships.
• Awards are based upon the availability of funds and applicants are not guaranteed funding.
• Awards are made in the context of preserving the longevity and financial health of the school, beyond COVID-19.
• The determination of awards will be made by members of the STAR Fund Task Force.

Award Responsibilities
• If and when your financial situation recovers, we respectfully invite you to make a contribution to the school, so the school may continue to offer financial support where and when needed.
• STAR Funds awarded will be applied to tuition.
• Acceptance of a STAR Fund award is independent of your enrollment contract.
