The Montague-Whitehall Rotary Club is encouraging high school seniors in the Montague and Whitehall school districts to continue their education by offering six competitive $1,000 college scholarships.
Qualifications for the scholarships are based on community and school service and scholarship.
The scholarships are to be used to cover expenses for attending a four-year or two-year college, or trade school leading to a degree or certificate.
Applications have been sent to the counseling offices at Montague and Whitehall high schools. Home-schooled high school seniors whose families reside in the Montague and Whitehall school districts can request scholarship applications by emailing Rotary’s education/youth chair, Greg Means, at gmeans23@gmail.com. The deadline for submitting completed scholarship applications is March 28, 2024. The scholarships will be presented at the senior awards programs at Montague and Whitehall high schools. If a home-schooled student is awarded a scholarship, a presentation will be held at a Rotary Club meeting.
The Rotary Club Scholarship Committee will review all applications and select the winners. Funds for the scholarships come from club fundraisers which include an annual Night On The Town silent auction, the annual Rotary Pancake Breakfast and No More Bull beef raffle.
