On May 13, our community gathered for an inspiring evening dedicated to celebrating the achievements and bright futures of our 2026 scholarship recipients. The event brought together students, proud families, generous scholarship donors, and district staff for a night filled with recognition, gratitude, and excitement for what lies ahead.

This year, 133 students were honored with scholarships totaling an incredible $614,900 in financial support. Throughout the evening, recipients were recognized not only for their academic accomplishments, but also for their leadership, perseverance, community involvement, and career aspirations. Donors had the opportunity to meet the students whose lives they are helping shape, creating meaningful connections.

The celebration highlighted the power of community investment and the lasting impact these scholarships will have as students pursue college, technical training, and career pathways across a wide range of fields.
