SLED is excited to partner with the Lampert Family Foundation in bringing “Youth Opportunity Scholarships” to middle schoolers at Bancroft & John Muir middle schools. These scholarships help  low-income students access fee-based enrichment programs such as dance, music, sports, and more! The scholarships are available up to $250 ($500 for camps).
To be eligible the applicant must be a low-income student in 6th thru 8th grade and have not received a Youth Opportunity Scholarship before. And yes, kids entering 6th grade or 9th grade in the Fall are eligible!
The application is short and includes a simple personal statement from the student explaining why the they want to enroll in a particular program. You can find the application on our website here, as well as an FAQ and local resource guide. Applications are due April 29, 2016 and can be turned in to the Parent Facilitator at the John Muir or Bancroft school office.
