The STAR Scholarship Foundation was
established by Paul Peck in 1992 to
help African-American/black students
achieve their higher education goals.
The purpose of this foundation is to show
African American and Black students that
there is hope, the community cares and
studying pays.
While the main focus of the program is to
award college scholarships to deserving
high school students, the foundation does
offer merit awards for 6th , 7th and 8th grade
students who have consistently above
average grades, or grades showing
significant progressive improvement or
significant academic accomplishments.
Star Merit Award winners receive gift cards which
can be used as you wish. 8th graders compete for
$150 or $75 cards. 7th graders compete for $100 or
$50 cards and 6th graders compete for $25 cards.
STAR winners also receive recognition at an award
ceremony and move onto the fast rack for eligibility
in other scholarship opportunities.
There is an application and essay form to
complete. This form is available online from the
school web page or from Guidance. The Deadline
is April 1st. No fooling.
Apply today for a STAR Merit Award.
It’s cash money for doing good in school.
More details in guidance.
Deadline to apply is April 1st.

Once again Parkland is selling manure just in time
for spring planting. This organic nitrogen rich
fertilizer is perfect for flower and vegetable
gardening.
A 30 pound bag is just $5. Plus, if you buy 5 or
more bags, delivery is free.
And if you think Manure is just for gardening, then
you need the latest edition of The Little Book of
Horse Poop.
It’s everything you
ever needed to
know about this stuff
but were afraid to
ask.
Anybody want to
buy some
Panther Poop?
