It is incredible to have 5 of our seniors receiving this highly prized scholarship. They are awesome, deserving students!
After nominations, applications, recommendations, transcripts, and interviews for this competitive scholarship program were considered, these HPS seniors were chosen to receive The Promise Scholarship. The Promise Scholarship is a "last dollar" scholarship, meaning that after other grants and scholarships have been applied, the Promise will cover the remaining cost of tuition, books, room and board.
These HPS students were not only nominated for consideration by staff at HPS, but also by area non-profits who are also given the opportunity to recommend worthy students from Holland/Zeeland area. Each organization and school have a limited number of nominations allowed. Both LAUP and CTC nominated HPS students.
