Columbus High School 2023 graduates of trade school and technology training can apply for scholarships by the Columbus Education Foundation now through March 29.
According to a release, six scholarships are available for a trade or technology school and offers opportunities for advancement. One scholarship is sponsored by Jason Sweatt, senior account executive, of First Financial Group of America. Sweatt is also a Bernardo resident.
“We want to make our company’s scholarship an annual CHS scholarship,” Sweatt said. “We want to designate it for tech and job training schools. From my experience with three daughters, I know not everyone flourishes in a college environment. I feel like many people are better served in tech/ job training schools. And, unfortunately, students are not always encouraged enough to go that direction and pursue other training.”
