The Woodrow Wilson High School Community Foundation announced this week that 25 graduating high school seniors have been awarded Foundation scholarships commencing in the fall of 2019.

“The Woodrow Wilson High School Community Foundation is proud to continue in our tradition of assisting children graduating from Woodrow Wilson High School to achieve their academic and career goals,” said Richard H. Vitale, president of the WWHS Community Foundation. 

“Since the inception of this program in 2009, the Foundation has provided financial assistance to over 140 students totaling nearly $250,000 in financial aid. We congratulate the 2019 recipients and wish them continued success as they pursue their higher education goals.”

The Woodrow Wilson High School Community Foundation was established to support excellent education in public schools and recognize and honor academic excellence among students within the WWHS feeder pattern. 

Scholarships range in value from $250 to $10,000 and were established to assist families in financing college costs.
