Lawrence Schools Foundation Awards 62 Scholarships Worth More Than $63,000 To Lawrence Public School Seniors
More than $63,000 in scholarship money was provided to Lawrence Public Schools seniors from Lawrence High School and Free State High School as the Lawrence Schools Foundation took part in both schools’ senior recognition ceremonies in early May.
In all, 62 scholarships managed by the Lawrence Schools Foundation were awarded to 53 different seniors to help offset their college expenses. After awarding 18 scholarships worth more than $18,000 to Free State students Monday, May 1, the Foundation handed out 44 scholarships worth more than $45,000 to LHS seniors Tuesday, May 9.
This year’s scholarships that donors have arranged with the Foundation ranged from $500 to a $5,000 renewable award. Among the new scholarships offered to the students this year were the Chestnut STEM, Elmore Family, Haskell Award, Lawrence Medical Managers, Perfect Test Score and Susan Satriano Foundation scholarships.
Eight scholarships offered annually to students through the Foundation were not issued this year due to an unfortunate lack of applicants.
