ALDERWOOD MIDDLE SCHOOL CARES
As many of you know, this holiday season is going to be especially difficult for many families at Alderwood Middle School . The economy has hit all of us really hard, but it especially hits those families who struggle to keep afloat even in good economic times. We have many families here at AMS who work two, sometimes three jobs to pay for basic needs like rent, food and electricity. This leaves little money for anything else. Each year, teachers and counselors speak with families who experience great pain at not being able to have a nice holiday meal or buy their children any presents. If you are in a position to donate a gift basket, a gift card or non-perishable holiday groceries, we will ensure that it goes to our families most in need.
Washington middle school students who dream of going to college but worry their families will not be able to afford it, have a new promise from the state: Work hard in school, keep your grades up, stay out of trouble, and a scholarship at a community college or technical college, university, or private career school may be yours.
To apply for the College Bound Scholarships you meet one of the these requirements:
Eligible for or receive free or reduced price lunch
