Applications and letters of recommendation for Rim High students are due by 2 p.m. on Friday, March 28 at the College & Career Center. Mountain High students must deliver their applications and letters to the school’s front office by the same deadline.

Scholarships will be presented to Rim High seniors at the senior scholarship night on May 19 at 6:00 p.m. in the Performing Arts Center. Mountain High seniors will receive their awards at graduation on June 9.
