PALMS WEST COMMUNITY FOUNDATION
2012 ANNUAL COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIPS AVAILABLE
The Palms West Community Foundation is pleased to announce that eight scholarships will be awarded to graduating seniors from high schools in the Western Communities in April. There will be one scholarship awarded to one student from each of the following schools—Royal Palm Beach High School, Wellington Community High School, Seminole Ridge High School, John I. Leonard High School, Palm Beach Central High School and Pahokee High School. Then, there will be two scholarships awarded “at large”, which will cover students that live in the Western Communities, but attend a high school outside the geographic area—like a magnet school, private school or a student who is home-schooled.
The application and criteria information for applying for one of these scholarships is located at the following link: http://www2.palmswest.com/chamber/dreambuildings-scholarship/. The deadline for submission of an application is Monday, March 26th. All applicants must be available for an interview with the education committee on Monday, April 2 at the Central Palm Beach County Chamber of Commerce office, formerly known as the Palms West Chamber office, located at 13901 Southern Blvd. in Loxahatchee between 4:00p.m. and 6:00p.m. The scholarships will be awarded to the winners at the Chamber luncheon on Monday, April 16th.
All students are encouraged to apply! If you have any questions, call Maureen Gross at (561)790-6200, or email [email protected].
