2015 ACHIEVE Scholarship Program
The Elkhorn Public Schools Foundation is excited to offer the New ACHIEVE Scholarship Program for students graduating in May of 2015. The ACHIEVE Scholarship Program recognizes and rewards students who engage in academically rigorous coursework while maintaining balance in other areas of interest within our schools and community. We believe that exposure to core academic rigor, elective course sequences, community service and school activities will promote success during and after high school.
