Do you know a high school senior with at least a B average and who demonstrates leadership skills in extracurricular and community activities?  If so, they could be eligible for the New York Lottery Leaders of Tomorrow Scholarship.

One eligible graduating senior from every participating public and private high school in New York State is awarded a $5,000, four-year college scholarship, paid in $1,250 annual increments.

Scholarships can only be used toward the cost of attendance at a New York State accredited college, university, community college or trade school.

Applications are mailed to School Principals every January.  See your Guidance Counselor for details on how to apply.
