How does financial aid work for boarding school?

[Jesse]

I am 13 years old (8th grade) and I really want to go to Cate Boarding school in California, but it seems very expensive. I want to go soo badly, so is there a way for the school to pay for some or most of my tuition? I have been a straight A student my whole life, I am very athletic(i currently do gymnastics but i am interested in sports like softball and dance), and I love to write and am hoping to get a book published in the somewhat near future. Do you think that they would allow me in the school and maybe pay for some or most of my tuition?? Thanksss
