I'm almost certain that we have to apply for the scholarships the high school gives out. In fact, I was on the scholarship selection committee last year for the '03 crowd. Yes, yes, it was supposed to be confidential, but that was last year, so I can admit the fact that I was on the committee, right? Ah well. Anyway, it's a group of people, two of them are juniors, one is a teacher, then the counselor and school board people and what-not, and each member of the group gets a copy of everyone's application, essay, transcript, and letters of reccommendation. So--a word to the wise--don't put anything in those essays that you wouldn't mind a random top-of-their-class-ish junior to be reading, because I got to do it last year, hehehe. Some of the stuff was very entertaining. I was brutal in ranking those who had crappy essays. Anyway, I'm getting off topic. I hope you gals enjoyed my scandal-ridden exposé of the scholarship world at CHS.
