Local Scholarship Dates Approach!!

Each year, over $125,000 is given out in local scholarships. These scholarships range from $250 to $40,000. Last year, there were nearly 50 different scholarships awarded to graduating seniors. With the growing cost of college, every penny helps.

Here is a breakdown of the upcoming dates...

Wednesday, February 24th - Local Scholarship Meeting - Extended HR (7:40-8:45)

Students will see a presentation on all of the available scholarships. They will also receive a handout which lists each scholarship. That sheet will be posted on this blog for all students and parents to view. Students will be able to access all scholarships through Naviance. For the first year ever, all scholarships will be done electronically.

Tuesday, April 6th - DUE DATE FOR ALL LOCAL SCHOLARSHIPS - 3:00 

(Click below for information about the Truitt Scholarship and Workshops)

Monday, March 1st - Truitt Scholarship Workshop - 2:45 p.m. Auditorium
        OR
Tuesday, March 2nd - Truitt Scholarship Workshop - 7:30 a.m. Auditorium

The students who qualify for the Truitt Scholarships will be given the opportunity to attend a 40 minute workshop on how to properly fill out a Truitt Application. Since the criteria for winning a Truitt is very involved, it is definitely to the student's benefit to attend this workshop. Scholarship guidelines will be explained. Tips will be given on how to write essays and much, much more. This is the ONLY opportunity to get the detailed information. Counselors will not cover these topics individually with students. This workshop is an important opportunity for the students.
