This scholarship program has been approved by the National Association of Secondary School Principals and the American Vocational Association.

Qualifications:

• Students must use their award toward earning a four-year degree at an accredited college or university. (Students may attend a two-year accredited college, but only as the initial step in the pursuit of a four-year degree).
• Nominations are being accepted from December to February.

Judging Criteria:
Students are judged on their application materials, oral and written communication skills, creativity, scholastic records, involvement in extracurricular activities, leadership qualities, awards and honors, citizenship, attitude and clearly defined career goals.
