Rotarians, our club's 2021-22 scholarship program has launched.  Our vocational service committee still needs help with scholarship funds, and with scholarship applicant interviews!  For 2021-22, the club’s allocation for 2021-22 is again $7,000.  We have commitments for five additional, "specialty" scholarships this year, totaling $6,500, for a program total of $13,500.  If you’re willing to sponsor a scholarship this year, or you can corral a scholarship donation from someone in our community, please get in touch with Gary Cohn as soon as practical.
 
This year scholarship applications are limited to Lake Washington High School, Juanita High School, and the International Community School. The club doesn't have enough team leads to offer the scholarships to Emerson High School or the Lake Washington Institute of Technology.  Thank you to this year's team leads: Mike Hunter (JHS), Brandon Honcoop (LWHS), and Brian Tucker (ICS).  Scholarship applicants will again submit through the SmarterSelect online program.  The Scholarship Night program is June 6, 2022.
 
If you are willing to devote some time to interviewing students for our scholarships, please get in touch with Gary, or with Mike Hunter.  We need several people for each interview team.  Without team leads and teams, students will not be able to participate.
