We have moved into the busiest time of year! It is Scholarship Season and time to start your applications! Consider all these options for your scholarship needs!
LOCAL SCHOLARSHIPS
1. Bill and Vi Sigmund Scholarship (Up to $5000) - DUE April 15, 2025
The Sigmund Scholarship is a $5000 scholarship in Jackson County that is encouraged most students to apply for. It does have a need based component to it, but college is expensive and with as expensive as our world has become many families (any income) can make an argument for having need! Don't let that stop you from applying!
Last year we had 14 Napoleon families get THIS scholarship alone! This scholarship is also renewable so, you can get it year after year after securing it your first year. They have a Traditional Scholarship and a Trades Scholarship! Looks like from their website they gave away 9.5 million dollars to almost 2000 students last year!
Here is the application website. Click the link that is right for you!

2. My Big Future Scholarships - Students complete steps toward the college going process for a chance to win money. This site is directly associated with CollegeBoard (SAT Test) and students can use this site to help make a more educated decision about which college is right for them to attend. This is a great resource for students to use!
3. I follow Monica Matthews and she talks about the following site for scholarships. These are more national and most likely much harder to get:
