It’s time to apply for community scholarships

Mar 4, 2026 | Education

The Rim of the World Communities Scholarship Council is encouraging all high school seniors to apply for community scholarships for college, trade or vocational school scholarships. Scholarship amounts range from $500 to $2,500 depending on the donations received from our community. Scholarships may be used 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 Rim High counseling office for Rim High 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 Mountain High office with Lisa Mills.

Rim Communities Scholarship applications, along with letters of recommendation, are due by 2 p.m. on Friday, March 27 at the Rim High College & Career Center for Rim High seniors and at the Mountain High office with Lisa Mills.

Since 1957, Rim of the World Communities Scholarship Council has been providing monetary assistance to local graduates.  The Council is proud to have awarded 52 scholarships to 2025 Rim High graduating seniors for a total amount of $42,950.00. The Council hopes to raise even more scholarship monies this year from our generous community members and local organizations, so our 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 Rim High seniors at Senior Scholarship Night on May 19 in the Rim High Performing Arts Center at 6 p.m. Scholarship awards will be given to Mountain High seniors at the Mountain High graduation ceremony on June 10.

The Council is a 501C3 and encourages all donations from community members. Please consult with your legal or financial advisors regarding tax deductions.
