HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS:
Maumee Chamber of Commerce Announces
Availability of Three 2012 Scholarships

The Maumee Chamber of Commerce has announced the availability of scholarships for high school graduating seniors. In addition to students attending Maumee High School, those attending private high schools or enrolled in certified home school programs are eligible to apply, as long as their primary residence is in the Maumee City school district.

Three $1,000 Scholarships are being offered for any business or professional field, which may include, but not limited to, health, business, professional, teaching, public service, culinary, trade, art or vocational.

Consideration will be based on current achievements in academics, extra curricular activity, community service and financial need. We are looking for any student dedicated to furthering their education. This can mean a 4-year degreed program at an accredited college, or a 2 or 4-year vocational-type school.
