This award recognizes the fact that all high school graduates must have the opportunity to pursue some education or training beyond high school in order to be successful citizens in our modern world. High school seniors in any public high school in Angelina County will be considered for this award upon submission of a copy of their parents' most recent income tax return and Student Information Data Form to the coordinator of scholarships. This broad-based scholarship opportunity for all students was established on the 25 anniversary of Angelina College through an endowment started with a donation from the estate of Ms. Effie Boon, a lifelong public school teacher from Angelina County who valued the opportunity of public education. This scholarship is currently limited to the first 70 qualified applicants, but will be increased to include all high school graduates of the county as the Angelina Challenge endowment is increased. Apply to the AC Scholarship Coordinator as soon as possible during the spring of the senior year in high school.
Selection is based on the order of receipt of qualified applicants.
