Employee Campaign Scholarships

A record 41 graduating seniors were rewarded with Employee Campaign scholarships at the annual Spring Branch Education Foundation Awards Night celebrated May 9 at the Westin Memorial City Hotel.

This year’s group of seniors each received a $1,250 scholarship. Spring Branch ISD employees contribute annually to the Foundation’s Employee Campaign, which funds scholarships for all SBISD graduates who are the children of district employees and apply.

“Every single donated dollar is set aside to fund scholarships for the children of our employees that are graduating from high school,” said Scholarship Awards Chair and Foundation member Warren Matthews.

“Due to the generosity of all the team members across SBISD, we have once again been able to award a sizeable scholarship to every student that applied. In SBISD, we’re proud to once again say ‘We take care of our own!’,” he said.

By 2017, SBISD has set a district goal to double the number of students completing a technical certificate, two-year degree or four-year degree.

In addition to the Employee Campaign honorees, dozens of students received other awards and scholarships. In all, 71 graduating seniors were honored during the evening program.

Employee Campaign Scholarships were presented to district seniors by SBISD Board of Trustees President Pam Goodson, SBEF Chair Mike Rome and SBEF Executive Director Cece Thompson.
SBEF’s Warren Matthews read individual student profiles, which were compiled by the Awards Committee team.
