PrimaryPlus FUNDS Scholarship
for Local High School Students

(Vanceburg, KY) PrimaryPlus is proud to announce the availability of applications for the seventh annual PrimaryPlus scholarship.  PrimaryPlus will provide one $500 non-renewable scholarship to a class of 2010 graduate residing and attending a Lewis County school.  The scholarship applications are available at the guidance counselors’ office at Lewis County High School, as well as online at www.primaryplus.net (a link is available on the front page of the site).

Applicants will be required to submit a brief biography, transcripts of their high school grades/test scores, financial need information and provide letters of recommendation.  Seniors applying must also submit a 500 to 1,000 word essay outlining their professional goals in the medical field, the future contributions they would like to make in the community and how this scholarship would help them attain those goals.  The recipient will be announced at the Senior Awards Day at the end of the school year; last year’s scholarship was given to the very deserving Kayla Dawn Polley.  The deadline for application submission is May 7th, 2010. PrimaryPlus offers similar scholarship programs to students in Fleming, Bracken and Mason Counties, in hopes that students from these counties, with an interest in medicine will be able to pursue their career goals and return home to provide top quality healthcare.

“The class of 2010 is a vital part of our community’s future and it is important to help them pursue their dreams, in hopes that they will return home to begin their careers.  PrimaryPlus feels that the scholarship will not only assist with the financial burden of college, but also help them to think about how they too can give back to their community,” states Jerry Ugrin, CEO of PrimaryPlus.
