Scholarships were previously based on income which was substantiated with paystub.
Household size was based on the honor system.
Unfortunately, people have been taking advantage of the program.
Our scholarship funds are not unlimited, we are not funded by the government like a school.
Going forward in order to receive a scholarship parents/guardians will need to:
1) Complete the application
2) Provide tax return
3) Complete the "How can I Help" question
Scholarships are reviewed and awarded by a committee and awarded based on need.
Need is determined by:
Financial need
Will the child be left at home, or are there adults available
Stability of household
