BAS Scholarships
Each
year the Black Achievers Society awards a minimum of four scholarships to
area high school students. We are proud to announce the availability of ten
$1000 scholarships for African American graduating seniors in the upcoming
school year.
The selection of these students is from the greater metropolitan area.
Schools may nominate students who best meet the following scholarship
criteria: academic achievement, extracurricular activities, community/civic
involvement, and financial need.
Please have the enclosed forms completed and returned to the Scholarship
Selection Committee by December 10, 2011. Students will be notified
by December 23, 2011 of their status. Students and their families
are invited to our annual Martin Luther King Celebration hosted by The
Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) in January where they will
be recognized for their achievement.

Your continued assistance in helping us identify
scholarship recipients is appreciated. Please include a copy of the
student’s transcript, a letter from the student stating why he or she
should be considered for a scholarship, and other requested information.
This information must be postmarked by December 15, 2009 and mailed
