Seniors interested in attending a technical or trade school
after graduation may apply for the Bates County Youth Advocacy Council
scholarships. Two $500 scholarships will
be offered. “This is part of our mission
to help Bates County youth who might not fit in traditional roles,” according
to Kris Jenkins, president of the BCYAC.
“Scholarships for technical and trade schools are less available and fit
the need of the children we serve at the Youth Center and with our other
programs.”
The scholarship applications will be available at all Bates
County high school counselor’s offices starting this week. The application is
due April 1.
