The Stuttgart Community Spouses Club (SCSC) awarded $79,000 to 34 members of the Stuttgart High School class of 2018, June 1, in the school auditorium on Panzer Kaserne.
“Knowledge is its own reward,” said David Carlisle, SHS principal during opening remarks of the assembly. The event recognized students who have earned scholarships from various private organizations, as well as military appointments, and athletic and academic awards.
Funding for SCSC scholarships and welfare grants are made possible by proceeds from Patch Barracks Thrift Shop and other member events, to include the Spring Bazaar. More than $350,000 annually goes back into the community by way of scholarships, military balls, youth sports and other organizational grants in Stuttgart.
This year, the SCSC scholarship committee will give back a total of $136,000 to high school seniors, continuing college students and spouses affiliated with the Stuttgart military community. The judging criteria for scholarships for seniors includes: GPA, ACT or SAT score; school involvement; leadership; community service/volunteer time; employment time, and an essay.
“Our scholarships this year range from $500 to $10,000 and were granted to 62 applicants. Three applicants were ineligible to receive funds due to military academy appointments and a Gap year plan. These students were recognized as Honorable Scholars,” said Traci Haggard, SCSC scholarship chairperson.
