Funds raised from the seventh annual “Hit the Greens for Scholarships” Golf Tournament last fall will enable Chino Valley Unified School District to distribute $50,000 in scholarships to high school seniors this year, the largest amount since the tournament began in 2009.
Fifty seniors from Ayala, Buena Vista, Chino, Chino Hills and Don Lugo high schools will each receive a $1,000 scholarship from the District to assist in their undergraduate studies.
Funds for the scholarships were raised at the golf tournament held in November hosted by School Portraits by Adams Photography at Los Serranos Country Club.
The tournament raised $31,329.29.
With carryover funds from the 2014/2015 school year, the District will be able to distribute $50,000 in scholarships this year to graduating seniors who were chosen from applications submitted this spring.
To date, more than $145,000 has been given to 116 seniors from the “Hit the Greens for Scholarships” Golf Tournament.
Among the attributes that students needed to demonstrate to receive one of these scholarships was achievement of an overall Grade Point Average of 3.8 or higher, a need for financial assistance, an outstanding attendance record, and/ or participation in school activities that promote good citizenship.
