Endowed by a Chadwick family with four alumni and designed to promote diversity in the student body, the MacFarlane Leadership Scholarship is a need-based scholarship, awarded to incoming ninth-graders who demonstrate high academic achievement, leadership or leadership potential and/or have shown outstanding character. This scholarship is reserved for students with demonstrated financial need to meet the cost of tuition, and whose potential will be supported by Chadwick’s academic, social and leadership opportunities. In addition to providing additional assistance for some supplemental costs (e.g., transportation and books), uniquely, this scholarship includes opportunities for leadership development through both U.S. and study-abroad programs after the student’s 10th and/or 11th grade years. The scholarship is awarded annually to three students and is renewed each school year based on an annual qualifying financial aid application, as well as the student maintaining a satisfactory academic and disciplinary record.

MacFarlane Scholars are newly admitted to Chadwick’s ninth grade and meet the following criteria:

• Demonstrate leadership potential within or outside their school environment.
• Demonstrate qualities of character consistent with the school’s Core Values: respect, responsibility, honesty, fairness and compassion.
• Demonstrate a strong academic record in their current grade.
• Have an interest and willingness to participate in domestic or international travel related to leadership development.
• Qualify to receive at least 50% tuition assistance in need-based financial aid as determined by Chadwick’s financial aid application process.
• Preference will be given to applicants from communities outside of the Palos Verdes Peninsula.

Students will indicate their interest in the MacFarlane Scholarship on the Chadwick application form and will submit their application for financial aid.

The named MacFarlane Leadership Scholars will receive acknowledgement of this honor at an annual Chadwick event.

The Malone Scholarship is made possible through a generous gift from the Malone Family Foundation. This scholarship is available to excellent students with demonstrated financial need who are applying to Chadwick for Grades 7-12. Chadwick awards one new Malone scholarship on an annual basis. The goal of the Malone Scholarship is to provide an outstanding education to students who demonstrate exceptional intellectual ability and achievement. Students who are considered for this opportunity will have exhibited a keen desire to learn and enthusiasm for maximizing their educational opportunities, yet are not able to meet the full tuition cost of  a Chadwick education. The amount of the scholarship will depend on the need documented by the scholar’s family through the financial aid application process.

From 2000 through 2012, nearly 49 independent secondary schools throughout the United States were selected for endowment by the Malone Family Foundation to provide scholarships to highly capable students. Chadwick was selected based on its academic caliber; the quality of its staff; excellent accommodations for gifted and talented students; strong AP and enrichment programs; attention to the individual student's needs, interests and talents; financial strength and stability; a commitment to financial aid; and an economically, culturally, ethnically, and socially diverse population. Chadwick is the only Malone School in Southern California.

Malone Scholars are:

• Newly admitted to Chadwick in Grades 7-12.

• Have U. S. citizenship.

• Are in the top 5% of their class according to standardized test scores and school records.

• Qualify to receive at least 30% of funding in need-based financial aid as determined by Chadwick’s financial aid application process.

Students will indicate their interest in the Malone Scholarship on the Chadwick application form and will submit their application for financial aid.

The named Malone Scholars will receive acknowledgement of this honor at an annual Chadwick event.
