PILLAR ONE: 18 EXTRAORDINARY GIRLS • Develop and implement a funding strategy to support the financial assistance program. Objective: Progress: • The School is committed to attracting, admitting, and retaining a diverse population of girls, regardless of financial circumstances, who will embrace and shape the unique opportunity of a CHS education. • Crofton House is one of the first independent schools in Canada to have clearly identified financial assistance as a strategic priority. In October 2015, a Board Committee was established and the work of this group and others has enabled Crofton House to welcome the first beneficiaries of the financial assistance program to the Senior School in September 2017. Strategies: • Develop and implement an entrance financial assistance program that supports each girl as a full participant in the community regardless of financial circumstances. • Develop and implement programs to attract girls from a more economically diverse applicant pool.
