Scholarship Requirements
The Garden Scholarship is awarded to a high school student who registers for the scholarship program and completes 25 hours of work maintaining the Gill Memorial Garden prior to their graduation. Students need not be members of St. John’s Episcopal Church. Any high school student may register for the scholarship and begin working toward their 25 hours to qualify for the scholarship. The $1,000 scholarship can be used to cover expenses for college, technical school, or community college. Acceptance of registration and approval of awards will be made by the current garden manger and the Vestry. There will be one award made each year. Contact the Parish Office for information on registering for this scholarship. |
