Millstone PTO/PTSA offering scholarships

MILLSTONE — The Millstone Township School District PTO/PTSA will once again sponsor a scholarship program in 2013.

According to a press release, the PTO/PTSA will provide $2,000 while also seeking matching funds from individuals and local businesses. The final award totals and number of recipients will be based upon this effort.

The scholarships are based on personal interviews, community service, and an essay on the topic “What Challenges I Have Experienced in My Life and How I Have Overcome Them.”

Any high school senior who resides in Millstone, has graduated from the Millstone Township Middle School, and is enrolling in a two-year or four-year educational program (including community college, nursing, vocational or business program) is eligible to apply.

Applications are available on the Millstone Township School District Internet website at millstone.k12.nj.us under the Middle School tab.

Applications should be completed and mailed to Millstone Township PTSA Scholarship, 5 Dawson Court, Millstone, NJ 08535 by April 1. Applicants will be notified of an interview date and time. Awards will be announced at the graduation ceremonies.
