Each essay award is $250.00 and the Kenneth F. Burns Memorial Scholarship and the Caron & Krause Family Scholarship are $500.00 each.
Coach Matt Hastings, Coach Chris Noble, plus any additional coaches as well as any F.O.S.C. Scholarship Committee members not having a senior that can apply will determine the scholarship and essay awards.
