Copper River School District -

Seniors: I am happy to announce the 2024 Alaska Engineering Education Foundation (AEEF) Scholarship opportunities. There are two AEEF scholarships awarded state-wide. One for $2,000 and another for $1,500. There are also several awards given at the local level through the annual Engineer's Week celebration. These scholarships vary based on the amount of money raised, but individuals in the past have received awards for over $4,000. This one application will place a student in consideration for multiple AEEF scholarships! The decision has been made to create two evaluation pools - students in the Anchorage, Mat-Su, and Kenai Peninsula school districts will be in one evaluation group while all other students in Southcentral Alaska will be in another. This means that students from smaller schools will NOT have to compete with students from larger schools. In order to be considered, students must apply using the 2024 AEEF application. The submission deadline is midnight on 01/26/24. The winners will be announced on 02/24/24. For more information, or to apply, please visit: https://alaskaeef.org/2024-aeef-scholarship-application/

NRA Youth Education Summit: "For two decades, NRA’s Youth Education Summit (Y.E.S.) has brought some of America’s most bright, ambitious, and patriotic youth to our nation's capital each summer for a week of fun they'll never forget. Students engage with political leaders, visit historical monuments, and apply their skills in competitive debates, all to enrich and inspire the future of our nation. The mission of the Y.E.S. program is to help students explore our American government, Bill of Rights and the U.S. Constitution, while encouraging them to become responsible citizens who participate in the democratic process and return to their community with a proactive voice for the Second Amendment. But Y.E.S. isn't just about taking tours around Washington, D.C. The summit is an educational experience that offers $40,000 in college scholarships for students who demonstrate strong leadership skills and knowledgeable participation during the week's activities - which include debates and seminars on current events." - NRA Explore.
