The VHS Alumni Scholarship Fund was established in the fall of 1993, the first year the alumni association was organized.  The board of directors decided that helping graduating seniors financially to further their education would be one of the prime goals of the association. 

      The alumni association has been very fortunate in gaining financial support and other services that have helped fund the scholarship program.  The association sponsored several Arts and Crafts Shows which were well received and successful.  A raffle fundraiser was very popular for several years.  Jerry Roth ’41 donated choice tickets on the fifty yard line to Denver Bronco’s games with parking privileges and a club house pass.  In 1997, three avid golfing alumni, Allen Dreiling ’55, Bernie Roth ’45, and Joe Hammerschmidt ’43 volunteered to organize a golf tournament.  Allen,along with other volunteers, will be spearheading the 9th Annual VHS Alumni Scholarship Golf Tournament.  The proceeds have been a great boost in building the scholarship fund.  Donations from our alums have been a tremendous aid in helping to continue this great program. 

     Scholarship applicants must have been admitted into a post secondary school which holds state accreditation.  This may be a four-year college or a two-year technical school.  Applicants must have a minimum high school GPA of 2.5.  Scholarship committee members base their selections on criteria that include extra curricular activities and involvement, work/job experiences, community or church activities, special academic or extra curricular honors and awards. 

     The VHS Alumni Association takes pride in offering the scholarship program to the qualifying graduating seniors and with continued support of alumni, the awarding of scholarships will be possible for the present and future years.
