Blossom Scholarship Program
Sponsored by North East Council of PTAs
Show your appreciation to someone special and perpetuate a North East tradition to teaching excellence. Your heart felt gift can be made by supporting this scholarship.
These and many other expressions of appreciation are open to you as a donor to the Virgil T. Blossom Scholarship Fund. Established to honor the late Virgil Blossom, Superintendent from 1959 to 1964, the Scholarship Fund is an excellent means of furthering quality education through assisting North East graduates who plan to enter the teaching profession. From each North East high school, recipients are chosen annually for scholarships to be renewed each year throughout their college careers. This means that as many as 24 students will be given financial assistance each year through the fund sponsored by the North East Council of PTAs.
The scholarship currently pays approximately $425 per semester up to 8 semesters to each recipient. Each NEISD High School awards a scholarship every year to a qualified student planning to major in education.
Since 1960, PTA has raised money through various sources to build a permanent fund to support the scholarships through interest earned. What better way to honor someone who has contributed to North Easts quality educational program than by a tax-deductible gift to the Blossom Scholarship Fund!!
