Dollars for Scholars
Washburn is a Dollars for Scholars community that helps to support our students Post-Secondary education! This is a great opportunity for all students to earn some money to continue their education and Mrs. Leingang is here to help you with this process!
Keeping this profile updated will help students with important information that will be needed to apply for most any scholarship senior year!!
Every student will create their profile at the end of their 9th grade year. This will help to organize all of the activities and awards students earn throughout high school!
Each spring Mrs. Leingang will work with students in grades 10-11 to update their profiles with new activities and awards from that year.
Senior year, Mrs. Leingang will meet with students a few times to work on finalizing their profiles. This is when we add in GPA and class rank information as well as work on the essay portion of the profile. Also, Scholarship America is a network of state and national scholarships that students can match with. Mrs. Leingang will go over the process of matching and officially applying for each scholarship!
