Provincial Scholarships Awarded to High School Graduates
Provincial Scholarships totalling more than $200,000 have been awarded to 204 recent high school graduates throughout Newfoundland and Labrador.
The scholarships, which range in value from $1,000 to $2,500, are used to help students pursue post-secondary education. Eligibility is based on public examination results.
“I congratulate each of this year’s scholarship recipients and wish them continued success in their post-secondary pursuits,” said the Honourable Clyde Jackman, Minister of Education. “The recipients are from schools throughout Newfoundland and Labrador, urban and rural; large and small. We are pleased to be able to help contribute to their further education and training.”
The Junior Jubilee Scholarship, valued at $2,500, is awarded to the student who attains the highest overall marks in the province. This year’s recipient is Justin Drover, a graduate of Holy Heart High School in St. John’s.
The Constable W.C. Moss Scholarship is awarded to the son or daughter of a member of the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary or the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (active, retired or deceased) who, other than the Junior Jubilee winner, achieved the highest public examination marks. This year’s recipient is James MacDonald, a graduate of Holy Trinity High School in Torbay.
The Provincial Government also awards $1,000 Electoral District Scholarships to the three high school graduates in each electoral district with the highest marks. In the event of a tie in a particular electoral district, more scholarships are awarded.
Centenary of Responsible Government Scholarships, valued at $1,000, are awarded to the 55 students – other than the Junior Jubilee, W.C. Moss and the Electoral District Scholarships – with the highest marks.
A complete list of the Provincial Government scholarship winners can be viewed in the backgrounder below.
