Our Scholarship Process
Our Camp Scholarship students are chosen exclusively by our own team of volunteer educators. Please know that we do not accept requests or recommendations from educators outside this team or from parents.
- Our team is currently made up of over 30 education professionals, from various school districts,
who work directly with us throughout the school year.
- Decisions are based on personal observation over time and on our carefully outlined criteria.
