J. T. Barker Scholarship
‘Ad Lucem’
Jonathan Tyler Barker died in 1872, however, continues to live through his commitment to the youth of Boxford. His will left a trust that would contribute to building a free school in West Boxford which educated many whose ancestors still live in Boxford today. Though the Boxford Free School closed its doors in 1917, the trust continues today supporting education ‘to the light’. Saint George Classical Academy is incredibly grateful to be the recipient of a $10,000 grant which has been allocated toward offering scholarship money for Boxford families to attend Saint George Classical Academy.
Who is eligible to apply? Families who reside in Boxford who seek an “illuminating” education for their children at Saint George Classical Academy.
How to apply? Please submit the completed form below with a 1-2 page essay describing what ‘Ad Lucem’ means to you as you consider your child’s education and how Saint George Classical Academy could provide that.
Submit the form, completed essay and evidence of Boxford residence either by email or via post to Admissions Coordinator, Mrs. Elizabeth Denton at [email protected] or Saint George Classical Academy, 4 Georgetown Rd. Boxford, MA 01921.
This scholarship application does not take the place of the student application.
Deadline: April 1, 2026
