Every year, two 5th-grade students are awarded a $500 scholarship that can be used to attend any two- or four-year college. The money is kept for them in a savings account until they are accepted. More than 35 students have been awarded the scholarship since the first ones were given out in 2002.
Applications for the scholarship are reviewed by a panel of Board Members and are announced at 5th grade graduation each year. If you are a previous winner and wish to claim your scholarship, please contact the front office at the school.
