By policy, approximately 5% of a three year average of the principal value is used by the School to support its various programs each year. Included in the total fund are many named funds, some of which are restricted for various purposes such as scholarships and awards. The following is a list of the existing named funds along with a brief description of purpose. (The market value as of June 30, 2007 is shown in parenthesis.) Scholarship Funds Nichols School is extremely grateful for all those who have contributed endowed scholarship funds. Such funds are fundamental to the support of our students, and we take pride in listing these funds in our Annual Report. The Charles E. Balbach Scholarship This fund was established in 1997 by the Board of Trustees, in honor of Charles E. Balbach, for his dedication and commitment to The Campaign for Nichols School. This scholarship is awarded to a young person of ability who has yet to demonstrate his or her full potential. This opportunity reaches out to the student at the margin, who we hope will discover that the demands of the Nichols School curriculum and its faculty will bring out his or her untapped talents. This one-year, non-renewable scholarship is designated for a candidate for the Upper School who demonstrates financial need. ($429,417) Boocock Memorial Scholarship This fund was established in memory of Philip M. B. Boocock ’22 alumnus and Headmaster of Nichols for over 35 years. Memorial gifts for his brother William Boocock ’18 were later added in 1984. Each year a deserving student is selected as the recipient. ($116,387)

A scholarship is awarded to a deserving student who demonstrates many of Keith’s outstanding attributes.

Duffy, Jr. and Virginia Leahy Duffy, established in 1999 through the One Community Campaign, this fund is designed to support minority students, preferably Buffalo Prep graduates, who meet the Nichols School admissions criteria.
