Since 2003, the Students of Distinction program has honored over 400 graduating seniors from the Peninsula School District and provided nearly $200,000 in scholarships. |
Investment in higher education generates significant social and economic returns that strengthen our communities and our nation. Higher education is an appreciating asset. |
Beginning in April each year, The Peninsula Gateway features 6 weeks of vignettes highlighting the students’ accomplishments. In May, a banquet dinner and ceremony is held in honor of these remarkable young men and women. |
Through the Students of Distinction Fund, everyone can join in building a permanent endowment to help guarantee the perpetuity and strengthen the capacity of this community scholarship program. Every dollar makes a difference. |
The 15th annual community Students of Distinction Awards Banquet will be held at 6:30 p.m. on May 24, 2017, at the Chapel Hill Gathering Place.
