We have THREE big scholarships to announce: the Bosse, Irwin, and Meyer scholarships! The number of each scholarship and amount varies from year to year, but on average Harrison will receive 3 Anna & Benjamin Bosse ($4,000), 15 Edward E. Meyer ($1,000) and 11 Constance E. Irwin ($1,000) scholarships. This allotment is only for Harrison students, so you have a much better chance of winning!

Anna & Benjamin Bosse Scholarship (open to HHS Students!) - Awarded to students attending one of the following schools: DePauw University, IU - Bloomington, Purdue University - West Lafayette, University of Evansville, or Wabash College.

Edward E. Meyer Scholarship - Awarded to students attending any college EXCEPT IU (any campus)

Constance E. Irwin Scholarship - Awarded to students attending any college or university.

To apply for the scholarships, students will need to fill out this Google form. They only need to fill out the form once, and then the scholarship committee will consider them for all scholarships for which you are eligible. As part of the application, they will need to upload the following documents:

• College Acceptance Letter
• Resume of Activities, awards and achievements
• Student Aid Report (EFC Verification) from FAFSA

Students will also need to write a brief statement about your educational/career goals and how one of these scholarships would help them achieve their goals. Please note that you cannot save your progress on the form and come back to it later, so students will want to gather all of these documents and write their essays ahead of time so they can paste it into the document.

The application deadline is Sunday, April 2nd, 2023 at 11:59 PM, and no late applications will be accepted. All scholarship winners will be notified at Class Day in May. Last year, we had to give some of our Meyer and Irwin scholarships to other EVSC schools because we didn't have enough students apply for them. As of today, we only have 12 applicants, so please encourage your students to complete the application ASAP!

Prices will increase on graduation products on April 1st, so if you haven't yet ordered, please do so soon! Click on the link here to order online. Cap, gown, and tassel ($28.70 + tax) are required to walk in Commencement, but you may choose to order other items at your discretion.

If you are interested in purchasing a yearbook, please click on this link to go to the ordering page at Jostens. We can't find a deadline listed, but we would imagine that it has to be soon. So, order right away!

We will be meeting with all seniors on Monday, April 10th during Enrichment to go over everything that they will need to know for all senior activities, including Commencement. We will share all of the dates and a copy of the handout in the April edition of this newsletter!

Do you have a senior who occasionally forgets to tell you something important? If so, sign up for the Senior Parent Remind! We will send you occasional texts with important, timely information, and we promise not to overdo it. Just click on the link here. You will receive an invite from Mrs. Effinger and, once you accept and confirm, you will be enrolled! If you do not receive an invite within 5 days after completing the form, please contact Mrs. Effinger in the Counseling Office.
