Prairieview Scholarship Committee
Do you know a high school senior looking for a scholarship?  Are you aware that Prairieview offers a scholarship to high school seniors that attended Prairieview for at least 3 years?  We pay $500 a year for 4 years pending the students grades.  This year's application is posted and the deadline to apply is March 5th.  If you have any high school neighbors or children remind them of this great opportunity.  We will be evaluating submissions in April.  We are also looking for anyone who is willing to sit in on two different meetings to help us decide on the winner.  It is a very interesting process and you get to hear presentations from some very talented students.  If you are interested in hearing more about this committee please contact Kate Sax at katesax@gmail.com.  We are also looking for a current Prairieview teacher to sit on the selection committee as well if any of you are interested.
