Dear
ISCA Members,
The ISCA Board
of Directors is pleased to continue a scholarship program for graduating high
school seniors. This scholarship program allows us to give back to
students that we work with on a daily basis and celebrate the work of
Illinois School
Counselors.
In 2018, ISCA
awarded two ($1,000) scholarships to two (2) high school seniors. We
are excited to be able to offer the scholarship again to members'
students in the Class of 2019. Students who will be completing
high school in 2019 are eligible for this non-renewable $1,000 scholarship.
The scholarship can be used to support the following post-secondary
options: 4 year college/university, 2 year college/university, trade
school or apprenticeship program.
Two scholarships will be available!!
