MOST scholarships grow along with the students.

Since 1998, MOST has been providing partial need-based scholarships to qualified Memphis-area families who wish to send their children to private schools. The scholarships allow more than 400 students per year to attend schools that are the right fit, and the funding follows them on their educational journey from prekindergarten through high school.

In the 2020-21 school year, MOST will strengthen its commitment to Memphis-area families with increased scholarship awards (up to $400 more per child per year) for students in kindergarten through grade 12. MOST is also excited to launch the Founder’s Scholarship, which rewards select high-schoolers in our program with additional funding and leadership opportunities. Each year, up to five rising ninth-graders will be honored as Founder’s Scholars, receiving an additional award of 20 percent of tuition (up to $2,500) per year through grade 12.
