Grande Prairie and District Catholic Schools

Superintendent's Scholarship

The purpose of this scholarship is to encourage students to acquire more credits during their high school years. In addition to increased credit attainment, the scholarship will provide an opportunity for scholarships to students who may not meet the academic level for other scholarships but demonstrate strong work ethic and character.

This scholarship would be paid directly to the student rather than a post-secondary institution, and it will not be awarded until the fall of the graduating year when students' marks are submitted to the District office by the student. Therefore the scholarship would not be awarded at the May or June High School Graduation ceremonies.

Guidelines
In an effort to celebrate student achievements, the Superintendent Awards will reward students who achieve 120+ credits during their high school career. Scholarships will be awarded based on the following grid:
Credits Earned Scholarship Amount
120 to 129 $500
130 to 139 $750
140+ $1,000
