Summary: Scholarships for our Student of the Month & Year program


These funds will support our Student of the Month and Year program for the 2025-2026 School year. Students must submit an application at the begining of the school year along with a resume and letter of reference to be considered for being selected for the student of the month. We select 9 students, one for each month of the school year. Each of these students must attend a club meeting and make an in-person presentation to the club that highlights their achievements, community service and the plan for their future. We then vote as a club for a student of the year out of these 9 students. All the students are recognized at the annual Senior honors night in May prior to graduation. We award $200 to each student of the Month for a total of $1,800 and then the student of the year receives $2,000 in addition.

You can't have 2 HS Scholarships. Do you want to keep the Interact scholarship grant or this one?

Clay,

The District had $18,000 more grant requests than available DDF for the 25 - 26 grant year. In order to meet the available DDF it was determined that we need to reduce the 3 tier levels to the next lower tier or $1,000. I have cancelled your signature process and reduced your DDF request by $500. You will need to either reduce the total budget for your grant or increase your club giving by $500 so it balances. Once you have made this adjustment please start the signature process again.

If you have any questions please email or call me at 970-629-0654.

Very good progress on this effort as monthly we have a student of the month come forward and present to the JM Rotary club on their attributes and characteristics. This effort will continue into the 1st half of 2026.
