If a scholarship only allows one student per school please submit the applications 24 hours prior to the postmark date to allow the staff to select the recipient. Give scholarships to Mrs. Byrne. Pay attention to all rules and guidelines. Good luck to all students!
Scholarships are rolling in this time of year, and many deadlines are approaching. There are several deadlines at the end of March and early April, including our local scholarship.
