Stoops Scholarship in Agricultural or Environmental Studies; and Butler County Area Foundation Fund Scholarship.
Charles O. & Grace M. Stoops Scholarship in Agricultural or Environmental Studies
Funding for this scholarship through the Butler County Area Foundation Fund has been provided by a gift of Grace M. Stoops and the late Charles O. Stoops of Montecito, California. Scholarship funds are available for students whose major field of study is agricultural or environmental studies.
Two $1000 scholarships will be awarded annually to resident graduates of David City High School, Aquinas High School, or East Butler High School. Additionally, a student who is a resident of Butler County who attends a school outside of Butler County, is also eligible. Each applicant may be an entering freshman or an upperclassman enrolled for post-secondary education at an accredited school of higher education in the general areas of agriculture or environmental studies.
Each scholarship must be used at a post-secondary accredited school of higher education.
Scholarship funds will be paid directly to the school after the student has successfully completed the first semester.
