RCHS Scholarship
Fund Receives f1,000
Last spring the Student Cooperative Association of Rappahannock High School established a scholarship fund from which graduates of the school may borrow at a low interest rate, money to help finance their college education. At the close of the 62-63 session of school the fund contained $300 part given by the graduating class and part by the S.C.A. Since that time a few contributions have been made by local citizens in an effort to build this fund so it may be put into use as soon as possible. Any and all donations, no matter the size are most acceptable and sincerely appreciated.
In addition to the above mentioned gifts, the Public Welfare Foundation of Washington, D. C., formerly located in Rappahannock, presented $1,000 to the fund. This may enable the directors to get the fund operating by the time the 64 graduates enter college,which is much sooner than expected. Often a student can help himself, with a little initial, help from other sources, to further his education. This is a worthy and vital project and should be of utmost interest to all in this area.
