WisconsinThanks to Pathways to Success, a Division of the Commonweal Foundation, 22 Wisconsin Academy (WA) students can now afford Christian Education. I came to WA because I wanted to get a better Christian Education, says Connie Corder.
Students are required to keep up their grades and stay out of trouble to continue receiving this valuable benefit. I like how it helps you have higher standards and how it makes you do your best, commented Enrique Serna III.
Participants must be a first-time boarding school student in grades 912 and meet financial qualification guidelines. It helps me out financially and gives me the chance to be in school without struggling, says Jasmine Ragland.
Students may reapply every year until they graduate; there is no maximum number of students who can apply for the scholarship. Most receive the maximum allotment of nearly $5,000. Students who stay in school at WA, or another boarding academy that has Pathways' program, receive almost $20,000 in scholarships.
If you want a Christian education, now it is within your grasp. All applications must be submitted to the Commonweal Foundation no later then July 31, 2006. Contact WA and make your Christian education dreams a reality. For information, contact Michelle Shufelt or Bob Meharry at (920) 623-3300.
