Overview

The BHS Writing Achievement: Mark Metcalf Award, sponsored by the Beatrice Educational Foundation, offers a $500 scholarship to Beatrice High School graduating seniors who demonstrate a strong commitment to writing.

This award is designed for students who excel in writing and need financial assistance for higher education.

Overview
The Foundation’s purpose is to provide a permanent source of financial support for the expansion and enrichment of learning opportunities for the Beatrice School District.
The Foundation manages a $3.8 million Endowment Fund and awards over $55,000 each year in scholarships to Beatrice High School graduating seniors.
The intent of the Foundation is to provide funds to deserving students needing assistance to attend a school of higher learning. Should a recipient receive other scholarship funds in excess of need, the Foundation scholarship will not be forwarded at that time.

Foundation scholarships are restricted to undergraduate studies.
The Mark Metcalf Writing Achievement Award is a $500 scholarship awarded to a student who has a record of commitment to and achievement in writing. The Beatrice High School English Department reviews applications and selects the winner of the award.
