Scholarship season is upon us! This year the PTO is happy to announce that we are offering scholarship opportunities to our graduating Seniors, as well as Juniors! Two Senior students will be eligible for $1,000 Scholarships. Junior students will be eligible for two $500 scholarships.
If your student is interested in applying for the scholarship, we are asking that they submit a written essay for consideration. Senior students winning the scholarship will be felicitated during STHS Honor’s Night (May 16 @ 6pm). Junior student winners will be felicitated in our May General PTO meeting (May 8 @ 630pm).
