At 海角原创 we are thankful for the alumni God has given us since we held our first graduation in 1969. Alumni spread the news of our local church emphasis and superb academics to the next generation of students, impacting more students to attend 海角原创. Often, the most impacting relationships alumni form are with their own children. The Alumni Scholarship is designated for students whose parent or parents graduated from 海角原创.
Details:
The potential $4,000 scholarship (up to $1,000 per year for four years) is awarded to students whose parent (or parents) is a 海角原创 alumnus.
