Dozens of local scholarships and awards are available to Ellenville High School’s graduating seniors, and now is the time to start applying.

In all, upwards of $50,000 is presented to students during a June ceremony. Some are awards based on academic achievement and excellence, some for athletic skill, and others are given to students who exhibit exemplary character, volunteerism, or community spirit. Still others are memorial awards given in remembrance of beloved Ellenville teachers, students and community members.

Criteria and application deadlines – which can be months before graduation day – vary for each award and scholarship, so it’s important to carefully review the requisites for each.

Applications will be posted below as they become available. Information is also available at the high school’s main office. Check back frequently and please pay close attention to the deadline dates in each application.
