About Church Farm School

Church Farm School has been educating boys regardless of their ability to pay since 1918.

Each year, Church Farm awards $7+ million in tuition assistance and scholarships to deserving young men from across the Delaware Valley and the country.

By delivering an independent, college preparatory education to those otherwise locked outside such opportunities, Church Farm creates a pathway to economic mobility for boys and their families.

Members of the Compass Circle and free will offerings from Why the Chimes Rang attendees directly support this vital work.
