#PublicSchoolGrad Scholarship - Enter Today!

Enter to win a $1,000 scholarship!
Deadline for all submissions: June 15, 2020

As a member of the Class of 2020 you are facing extraordinary challenges of school closings, trying to complete courses via distance learning, without in-person support from teachers and the connection to friends—and possibly without the graduation ceremony you and your family have been looking forward to for years.
You’re tackling these challenges—as you have overcome other hurdles throughout your school years—and the Schott Foundation celebrates your determination, your resilience.  Needed now more than ever.
The scholarship is our way to help one Proud #PublicSchoolGrad take the next step in continuing their education.
The scholarship entry form is simple—and you can fill it out online.
What you’ll need to enter:
  • Information about you: (name, city, name of the school you’re graduating from, how to contact you)
  • A photo of you holding this Proud #PublicSchoolGrad sign – or you can make your own with the same text
  • A few sentences describing a teacher and others in your community who helped you achieve this important milestone in your life
  • If you’re under 18, permission from your parents
The Schott Foundation will review all entries and pick a winner for the $1,000 scholarship—to be announced in July.
