In the week of February 12th through February 18th, it is Scholarship week for most high schools. This week is helpful to high school students because it gives them time to find a ton of scholarships and make money for their plans after high school. In an interview with Becky Callender, a counselor at Western High School, she explained further how students can use this week more efficiently. "Look at the due dates of the scholarships, and do the ones that end in March or April. You can wait to do the ones that end in June later."
The majority of high schools are in the middle of scholarship week right now. All students get this week to apply for scholarships that they may not have been able to apply for before during English class. The English classes take a break from their usual unit this time of year to have students apply for more scholarships to increase their chances of winning money for college in the fall. Many students have already won scholarships, and plenty of scholarships are still available for others to win.
Most counties have their own scholarships, so no high school student can say that there are no scholarships for them. There are countless amounts of scholarships out there, and there are scholarships that are just for certain things. Such as where you live, the color of your hair, the religion you are, etc. There are enough scholarships for all students who want to go to college, so everyone should apply for them every chance they get.
