Calaveras Hills High School Community Scholarship 2024
Do you want to invest in the future of a Calaveras Hills High School student? Do you want to make a tax-deductible donation to a truly worthy cause that will have inspiring and amazing outcomes for your return on investment? You have come to the right place - the Calaveras Hills High School Community Scholarship for students who will attend a California Community College or a Career Technical program after graduation.
Who are “Cal Hills” students?
​They are an amazing, diverse group of students who have found success in a smaller, more personalized educational setting. Most students, who come to us during their junior year of high school, were not previously on track to graduate on time. That story changes when they find other students with a kindred spirit and a staff that will do anything to help them succeed.
What do our students do?
Cal Hills students successfully participate in a variety of programs, including a personalized learning program tailored to their learning needs, leadership opportunities on campus and in the community, they volunteer to raise money for cancer through Relay for Life, they take rigorous engineering courses, they learn to believe in themselves and inspire those around them, and they prepare for college and careers. Most students are enrolled and registered for Community College classes with a solid plan for their future before they even graduate high school! The challenge that they still have is how they are going to pay for the expenses of college, including fees, books, supplies, and living expenses.
