If you have any questions regarding the MGM-PGCLDCP scholarship or questions about the Kaleidoscope application platform, please email help@mykaleidoscope.com.
Historically, students at Crossland HS, for whatever reason, have not applied for these scholarships in droves and we have had to beg students to apply (I know, that's a shame, right?!) This also means that, with a smaller number of students applying across all of the high schools, there has been less competition for these scholarships. This has translated into students having had a GREATER chance of snagging a scholarship, provided they submitted a complete and decent application packet.
In addition to the Superintendent Scholarship ($5,000 each to 4 PGCPS graduating seniors); Leadership Scholarship ($3,500 each to 12 PGCPS graduating seniors); and the Student Service-Learning Scholarship ($3,500 each to 9 PGCPS graduating seniors), here are scholarships that are specific to select CTE programs/students:
Culinary Arts Scholarship: $3,500 each to 3 PGCPS graduating seniors
Technical Scholarship: $3,500 each to 3 PGCPS graduating seniors - for any senior in the following programs: Business Management and Finance, Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness, Interactive Media Production, IT CISCO Academy, Environmental Studies: CASE, PrintEd, Project Lead the Way- Pre Engineering, or Project Lead the Way-Biomedical Sciences.
Trade Scholarship ($3,500 each to 3 PGCPS graduating seniors) - for any senior in these programs: Automotive Technician, Auto Body Repair, Barbering, Carpentry, Child Growth and Development, Cosmetology, Electrical, Firefighter/EMT, HVAC, Masonry, Nursing, and Plumbing.
Please Please Please APPLY. If you would like support, assistance, guidance, there are MULTIPLE people who can support and help you. Those people are:
Mrs. Billingslea (your 2024 Professional School Counselor),
Mr. Givens (your Class of 2024 Administrator),
Ms. Joseph (your Class of 2024 Co-Sponsor),
Mrs. Myers (your Class of 2024 Co-Sponsor),
Dr. Gilchrist (your Principal),
Mrs. Laney (your CTE Career Support Coordinator), and

FSA ID# Reminder
FSA ID# Reminder
The FSA ID is an electronic signature used to sign the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and federal education loan promissory notes. The FSA ID consists of a username and a password.
Who should get an FSA ID?
The student and the student‘s parent (if the student is a dependent student) each need their own FSA ID. Each FSA ID must be associated with a different email address.
The parent should not create a FSA ID for the student and the student should not create a FSA ID for the parent. Doing so often leads to problems. It is also illegal.
Never share your FSA ID with anybody, not even a relative!
