Scholarship money is available for students that demonstrate a financial need. Scholarships will be provided based on family need demonstrated through both household size and income and in some cases by school principal and/or counselor recommendations.
Only ONE scholarship form is required per household.
Scholarships are awarded on a first come, first served basis.
The Ernest L. McKinney Scholarship has three semesters: Fall, Spring, and Summer.
Each child that is awarded a scholarship will have access to one course/workshop per semester.
Returning scholarship applicants must fill out new forms before each Fall semester.
Applicants should submit a completed application along with the required documentation on or before the registration deadline.
Only completed applications submitted before the stated deadline will be considered. Incomplete applications will not be eligible for consideration.
Once a decision has been made, the applicant will receive written notice as to whether or not scholarship money is available.
Scholarships will not be retroactive.
Partial scholarships may be awarded. If the student is awarded a partial scholarship, you will be asked to submit payment of the remaining balance by the last day of registration.
There are no refunds after the last day of registration.
