Collectively, those students have been awarded $9,430,490 in scholarships, based on data provided by the district’s 12 high schools. This funding total does not include monies that would be made available to students based on their families’ economic eligibility, such as the Pell Grant. “These numbers are strong indicators of how well the district is working with students and families,” said Schools Superintendent Eileen F. Shafer. “I want to congratulate all of the students who have been accepted into college and have been awarded scholarships based on their hard work. I also want to thank all of the parents who have supported their academic achievements at home, as well as all of the teachers, administrators, guidance counselors and principals who have done everything they can to help prepare our students for college.” What follows is a school-by-school representation of the number of students accepted into college, the colleges where the students were accepted, and the total amount of scholarship dollars awarded to students at that school.
