This scholarship is not intended for the “best athlete”. The ideal candidate is one who may have had a hard time excelling at everything since a freshman, due to involvement in a multitude of activities or the need to help at home. The candidate may not have the highest grades, but is extremely diversified in interests, has found focus the last year or two and has a good trend going. A straight “A” student could be a candidate, but not necessarily. The heart, focus and future interest of the student should be considered.
Financial need is a relative thing; all students bettering their education have financial need. This scholarship is to be focused on the individual who deserves it for his own effort, rather than factors of financial backing or lack thereof from third parties who may also be supporting the applicant.
NOTE: Individuals receiving the Proper high school scholarship may re-apply in the next years for a subsequent college scholarship if their grade point is “B” or better. This scholarship will be offered to students who remain at college or university. Applications are to be made to the Bonduel Scholarship Selection Committee. The application form will be provided to those students in college during the spring of each year. A copy of the student’s transcript showing the “B” average will be required.
