JSSPVA Scholarship Fund

Each year the Joseph Sears School Parents’ Volunteer Association sets aside funds for need-based scholarships to help offset the costs of activities and fees. The School advertises the scholarship availability and credits the JSSPVA for funding. Sears families request assistance from the School directly, and the administration determines whether a family qualifies for scholarship funding. If you would like to inquire about obtaining scholarship funds, please email shelfand@kenilworth38.org.

 

All scholarships are confidential; the JSSPVA gives the money directly to the administration to help each family.

The JSSPVA Scholarship Fund covers:

• 7^th Grade Springfield field trip
• 8^th Grade Washington D.C. field trip
