2025 ABCF Scholarship

In keeping with the mission to support and promote academic success for ALL Wheeler students, the Wheeler ABC Foundation will award four $500 scholarships to deserving Wheeler seniors who plan to further their education by enrolling in either a four-year or two-year college degree or technical certification program.

Academic Success means different things to different students. It's not just about grades - it may be about using your experiences to benefit the Wheeler community; learning how to balance school, family obligations and work; or simply discovering more about yourself. It may be about what you bring to the classroom and how you inspire others, or about finding what excites you and makes you want to keep learning.

Students applying must meet the following criteria:

· Be a Wheeler student in good standing and graduating in May 2025.

· Complete the online application and answer the short essay prompts.

· Adhere to the deadline established and essay word limits.

All applications must be received by 11:59 pm on March 11, 2025.

The link to the application is https://forms.gle/pYVZmhLgabysEWhT9
