The Louisiana Sheriffs’ Educational Scholarship Program awards $500 to graduating High School students in Parishes where the Sheriffs are members of the Louisiana Sheriffs’ Honorary Membership Program.

 

Funding for this scholarship is made possible through the generous support of Rapides Parish’s Honorary Members. The goal of the program is to provide assistance to worthy Louisiana students in furthering their education and training with resources made available through the program.

 

The scholarship is awarded as a gift, not a loan, to defray the rising costs of tuition and related expenses in higher education. An independent board of review selects the winner of the scholarships.
