Applicants are being sought for the William and Margaret Norton Scholarship Trust. The trust was created by the Nortons upon their deaths and is designed to help graduates of Oswayo Valley High School afford a post secondary education. The scholarship is open to all graduates of Oswayo Valley High School in Potter County
The scholarship may be used for any type of post secondary education including conventional baccalaureate programs as well as vocational and trade school programs, associate degree and graduate school programs.
It was the Nortons? preference that the scholarship committee favors applicants who pursue post secondary education immediately following high school graduation. The Nortons also requested that the committee consider applicants who demonstrate good citizenship, character, values and motivation, academic merit, educational achievement or academic or educational promise and a degree of financial need.
Applications are currently available at the Oswayo Valley Elementary School, as well as on the Oswayo Valley School district?s web site, ovguidance.weebly.com/local-scholarships.html. Application deadline is April 12, 2013. Citizens & Northern Bank serves as the trustee of the Norton Scholarship Trust.
