April 1st will be here before you can say “diploma.” Encouraging your senior to apply is like handing them a golden ticket—except it’s better than chocolate (and that’s saying something!). The process is straightforward: hop onto our website, peruse the criteria, and submit. Easy-peasy, right?
A Nod to Doris Looney
And let’s not overlook the Doris Looney scholarships—a gem in our crown. Named for a luminary whose legacy reverberates through Solon, these awards honor diligence, heart, and a zest for learning. Imagine your senior’s name etched beside hers, a testament to their grit and gumption. The application portal at https://www.solonareacf.org/scholarships is your gateway to this honor. Tell your grad: don’t dawdle—carpe diem applies to scholarships too!
Picture the scene: your senior hunched over their laptop, the glow of the screen illuminating their determined face, the faint hum of anticipation in the room. Every word they type is a step toward easing the burden of tuition or snagging that coveted textbook. Submitting an application isn’t just paperwork—it’s a bold declaration of intent. And when they hit “send,” the ripple effect could be felt for years: a degree earned, a career launched, a life enriched.
