Productive Booster Club Meeting Kicks Off 2012 By Creating a Scholarship Fund

The EVVMS Booster Club voted Tuesday to allocate $1,000 per year for a Booster Club scholarship fund that will eventually assist one girl and one boy student upon graduation from Elkhorn South High School.

The two $500 scholarships will be raised through the simple practice of clipping BOX TOPS from food packaging labels, and sending them to school. So here's just another reason to send those BOX TOPS in, and have all your friends, neighbors and co-workers collect them for us, too.

The first year the scholarships will be awarded will be 2016, when our present eighth-grade class is graduating from high school.

The Elkhorn Public Schools Foundation will administer the scholarship process, as it has done for other Booster Clubs in the district. Through a blind selection process, the future EVVMS Booster Club will select which EVVMS graduates receive our Booster Club scholarships after four years of high school.

The scholarships apply for any kind of post-secondary education, and all EVVMS graduates will be eligible.
