About Golden Beavers Scholarships

Golden Beaver Scholarships

The primary focus of the Golden Beavers is providing scholarships annually to deserving Ballard High School seniors. The Golden Beaver Scholarship Program is meant to stimulate, within the Ballard student body, the desire to achieve goals that prepare them for advanced education and/or training upon graduation. Financial support for these scholarships is derived through donations, memorial contributions, wills and bequests. From 1988 to, and including, 2019, Ballard High School students received 326 Golden Beavers Scholarships for a total of $695,973.

Selecting & Presenting Our Scholarship Winners

Each year the BHS staff picks students that they feel would be good candidates for Golden Beaver Scholarships. Each applicant submits a letter of recommendation along with their resume including school and community activities, work experience, special honors, and awards. We have 6 committee members who have volunteered to interview the candidates and select the scholarship winners, who are presented with their awards at our Annual Scholarship Luncheon
