Scholarship applications available

MILLSTONE — The Millstone Township PTSA and PTO, two nonprofit groups of parents, students, educators and community members who work together to support the schools and offer educational opportunities to Millstone’s students, will once again sponsor a scholarship program.

The PTSA and PTO will each provide a $1,000 scholarship, according to a press release. The scholarship award will go to deserving high school senior(s) who reside in Millstone Township and have graduated from the Millstone Township Middle School.
