Dear Graduating Eighth Grader,
Once more this year the Roadrunner Parent Teacher Council (RR-PTC) has been asked to
determine the eighth grade recipients of two scholarships from the school to graduates going on to
Catholic high school. In addition, the RR-PTC will also award one “St. Anthony School Discipleship
Award” which is open to all graduates. All these awards are given to deserving students who live the
St. Anthony School mission in their daily lives. The person who receives the Discipleship Award will
be named and honored at graduation ceremonies, will receive a commemorative medal, and will
have his or her name engraved on a plaque at St. Anthony School. Those receiving scholarships will
also be named at graduation ceremonies, receive a certificate, and the tuition will be sent in the fall
to their Catholic school of choice.
In this packet you will find application documents, which may be used to apply for one or both of
these awards. The first part is a three-page student application to be completed by the graduating
eighth grader. This packet should be used for brainstorming, but then accessed via the school
website to download and type a final draft. The second part is a teacher recommendation that you
will need to give to two different teachers for completion.
The RR-PTC steering committee will review all applications and give recommendations to the
principal for final selection of the awards. We look for students who are well rounded academically
and spiritually and who have spent their years at St. Anthony School cultivating skills and attitudes
that will contribute to their success and growth in the future.
Eligibility requirements for all awards:
1. Students who have been active participants in the school community and in RRPTC events;
2. Students who show overall success in academics and leadership;
3. Parent and family active participation in school and parish activities;
4. Application packets completed in its entirety by the student – All pieces TYPED;
5. TWO teacher recommendations;
6. Applications returned to the office by April 17, 2014.
7. For scholarship applicants only – graduates must be attending Catholic high school
8. Tuition and In-House accounts at the school must be in good standing; any account with a
balance owing after June 30th will have that balance deducted from any RR-PTC scholarship
awarded to your family
We are eager to receive your applications and we congratulate you in advance on your graduation.
Awardees will be announced at the graduation ceremony on June 4th. If you have any questions
about this application please contact any one of the RR-PTC steering committee for assistance.
Good Luck!
