Foundation Scholarships
- Dr. Edward B. Turchick Scholarship ($2,000.00) - awarded to a Glendale senior student who has completed an exemplary community-oriented OR school-oriented project, fills out a descriptive project questionnaire, earned a 90% grade point average, fills out the 'student scholarship information form', and gives a 3-5 minute presentation about the project to judges (*the 3 members of the Foundation Scholarship subcommittee). This scholarship was named in honor of Dr. Turchick, who, besides serving as Glendale's superintendent for many years, was a charter member of our Foundation--guiding us through the difficult early years of the organization. **In addition, this particular scholarship is endowed by an anonymous donor**
- Glendale Educational-Community Scholarship ($500.00) – randomly drawn from a list of select student candidates who have earned a minimum 90% GPA, have completed the 'student scholarship information form' and have been accepted to an institute of higher education.

SCHOLARSHIP SPONSORS NEEDED AT GLENDALE
The Glendale School District Education Foundation, in cooperation with the Glendale High School guidance and administrative offices, would like to invite/request more local businesses, organizations, alumni and individuals to please consider sponsoring scholarships for our Glendale High School graduating seniors. While the students at our small rural school district are prepared academically for college and/or other institutes of higher learning, there endures a significant lack of scholarship monies. Glendale graduates seeking to attend institutes of higher learning need your help--especially in light of the fact that we have lost well over seven scholarship sponsors the past few years! Whether you are former alumni, local business owner or civic organization leader, we strongly encourage you to please give back to the children of your alma mater by providing funding for our high school graduates for annual gifts as little as $250--which (should you choose) could be distributed through our non-profit 501(c)(3) Foundation so that you can remain anonymous or choose not to use your own bank checking account?
Scholarships could be placed in the name of organizations, memorials for loved ones, or to honor former teachers, coaches, or individuals. These awards are handed out annually in May to our Glendale High School seniors. What better way to ‘invest in our community’s future’ than through our students?
Interested in giving back to the graduating seniors at Glendale? Contact the Glendale Education Foundation executive director, Richard W. Snyder II, via phone (814) 312-8620 or email: rsnyder@gsd1.org Mr. Snyder looks forward to hearing from you and is available to assist in any way--with a special expertise in helping design the criteria of your annual scholarship.
