Every year, the JCEA gives back to the community and the education profession by awarding scholarships to students who want to pursue a career in education. This year, we are proud to award three scholarships to students:
|
JCEA Excellence Fund Scholarship
|
|
This annually awarded scholarship goes to a Jefferson County high school senior entering college the following year to pursue a degree in education. Each scholarship award is $1000 per year and can be renewed for up to four years.
Shermita West Scholarship
This annually awarded scholarship goes to a Jefferson County high school student of color entering college to pursue a degree in education. Each scholarship award is $1000 per year and can be renewed for up to four years.
Sue Anne Berger Scholarship
Sue Anne Berger was a beloved science teacher, and chemist. She spent her life cultivating a love of the sciences in students of all ages. With her passing, she established an annual scholarship to be awarded to two graduating seniors in the Jefferson County district, who intend to study the physical sciences or related fields. Each scholarship award starts at $2000 and is increased by $1000 each year, up to four years.
