With high school graduation on the horizon, Housatonic Valley Regional High School seniors are bound to be thinking about their futures. HYSB is pleased to offer a $1000 scholarship to a 2019 HVRHS graduate who will continue their education after high school. Students who plan to attend professional development programs, take classes toward an Associates Degree or enroll in a four-year college are all eligible. The HYSB Scholarship will recognize students who have distinguished themselves in ways that might be overlooked. They work a part-time job while attending high school and get outstanding reviews from their supervisors. They volunteer after school or on weekends with community organizations. They succeed at school, sports, the arts or work in the face of personal or family challenges. They demonstrate leadership and are respected by their teachers and peers. If any of this describes you, then you may be eligible to receive a HYSB Scholarship for 2019.
To apply, please write a 1-2 page essay describing your high school life and the aspects of your daily activities about which you are most proud. Please share your post-graduation education plans and include a short recommendation from a teacher, coach, supervisor or member of the community. Please share this information with any HVRHS senior who might be interested.
Applications are due on Monday, March 25, 2019 and should be emailed to lcollins@hysbct.org. If you have any questions, please contact Laurie Collins at 860-824-4720.
