Call for Scholarship Judges
We will have all the final local scholarships in by April 30th and are looking for volunteer judges to fill out evaluation forms and provide feedback on the applicants so that we can follow our process on selecting the official winners. This would be on your own time, but would need to be done by the middle/end of May so we can announce the winners before school ends. Please email us at sceswe@gmail.com to sign up as a scholarship judge.
