The Rim of the World Communities Scholarship Council is encouraging all high school seniors to apply for community scholarships for attendance at college, trade or vocational schools.
Scholarship amounts range from $500 to $2,500, depending on the donations the council receives from the community. Scholarships may be used for both college or trade/vocational school to help cover tuition, books or other student fees.
Applications are available to download right now on the Rim High School scholarship webpage, https//www.rimsd.k12.ca.us/10520_2. Hard copies of the scholarship application are available at the RHS College & Career Center for RHS seniors. Students with questions should reach out to Lisa Mills at lisa_mills@rimsd.k12.ca.us.
Mountain High School seniors will be emailed applications directly and hard copies will also be available to pick in the MHS front office.
Rim Communities Scholarship applications along with letters of recommendation are due by 2 p.m. on Friday, March 29 at the RHS College & Career Center for RHS seniors; the same deadline applies for MHS seniors to deliver their scholarship applications and letters of recommendation to the MHS front office.
Since 1957, Rim of the World Communities Scholarship Council has been providing monetary assistance to the local graduates. The Council is proud to have awarded 45 scholarships to 2023 RHS graduating seniors for a total amount of $37,000.00. The Council hopes to raise even more scholarship monies this year from generous community members and local organizations, so the high school seniors will have the financial assistance and encouragement to help them as they continue their education.
Scholarship awards will be given out to RHS seniors at Senior Scholarship Night on May 20, 2024, in the RHS Performing Arts Center at 6 p.m. Scholarship awards will be given to MHS seniors at the MHS graduation ceremony on June 4, 2024.
The Council is a 501C3 nonprofit organization and encourages all donations from community members. Please consult with your legal or financial advisors regarding tax deductions.
