The British Columbia School Superintendents Association will award six regional scholarships to students planning to pursue post-secondary studies.

Students wishing to be considered for a scholarship must be currently enrolled in their final year of studies at a public secondary school in British Columbia and expected to graduate in June 2019. One winner will be chosen from each of the six BCSSA provincial chapters (Fraser Valley, Kootenay-Boundary, Metro, Vancouver Island, Northern, Thompson-Okanagan).

In selecting the recipients for this year’s awards, the scholarship committees will consider demonstrated exemplary service and leadership within the school and community. Letters of reference will be required to affirming the applicant’s accomplishments and efforts to improve the quality of life for young people and others through volunteer work and other activities. In addition, the applicant myst submit a short description (450 words maximum) of how his/her volunteer service has made a difference in the life or lives of others.
