Common Application for Social Circle Scholarships

For many years in Social Circle, dedicated individuals and organizations have sought to recognize and reward outstanding seniors who are moving forward with their educational plans beyond high school.  This year, those same individuals have expressed an interest in awarding scholarships to Social Circle High School seniors from the Class of 2018.

The following scholarships will be awarded to Social Circle High School students exclusively:

• Athens First Radford Scholarship for $500
• Dally Scholarship for $1000 (renewable for four years)
• Deadwyler Scholarship for $500
• Pinnacle Bank for $500
• Rotary Scholarships, four for $300 each
• Walton County Foundation for an undisclosed amount
• Walton County Retired Educators Association for $250

Please know that other scholarships may contact us after this announcement is published, so this list may grow.

This year, we have formulated a common application for students to complete which will put them in the running for each of the scholarships listed above!  One application for seven (or more) scholarships; that makes things easy!

Only students who complete the attached scholarship application will be in the running for these scholarships.  The odds for this scholarship competition are the best around, so do not neglect to take care of this one by April 13th.  If you have questions, email Mr. Kulp at mike.kulp@socialcircleschools.org.
