The Coopersville AFNR Program is committed to helping students pursue their educational and career goals beyond high school. Each year, students have access to a variety of local, state, and national scholarship opportunities through the agriculture program, FFA, industry partners, and postsecondary institutions. Whether students plan to attend a university, community college, trade school, or enter the workforce, these scholarships recognize academic achievement, leadership, community involvement, and commitment to agriculture.
PROGRAM SCHOLARSHIPS
We're fortunate to have two main program scholarships available to seniors each year.
Due to the generosity of our Alumni and Supporters Land Lab Committee, $6,000 is distributed amongst each graduating class. These scholarships are available to any active FFA member and require no specific GPA. Students must be pursuing some form of secondary education either in college, trade school, or professional training (i.e., CDL Class).
The second program scholarship available is due to the generosity of the Eubank Family and provides $500 to a graduating senior pursuing a two-year certificate program in agriculture, with preference given to Dairy Technology.
The applications for these scholarships are posted in the FFA Google Classroom and due in April each year.
These scholarships are held within the Coopersville FFA Endowment housed at the Coopersville Area Community Foundation. If you have any questions about the endowment or wish to support it directly, please reach out to Kevin Wierenga at wieringa90@gmail.com.
