LEHS Class of 1965, 2022 Scholarship Recipients

Thanks to the generosity of our classmates, we were able to give two $1,000 scholarships to The LEHS Class of 2022!  We had ten very deserving students apply.  Thank you also to Fred Bollen for presenting our scholarships at the LEHS Awards Night on June 1st to these amazing young ladies.

It’s Scholarship time again

It’s been awhile since you’ve heard from us!  Hope you got through the winter safe and sound and are enjoying some nice spring weather.  I know we all probably thought COVID would be long gone and we’d be out of the woods by now but hopefully by 2025 for our 60th reunion it will be safe to travel and enjoy a large gathering.
LEHS Class of ’65 Scholarship Thank you to all the classmates who made donations last year.  Once again our Class is planning a $1,000 Scholarship Award to a deserving student in the graduating class of 2022.  We have given out over $30,000 in scholarships since 1981 and will continue this tradition as long as we can.  No donation is ever too small.  They added up to a substantial amount.   
Please go to the following website to see the posted Class of ’65 application form and guidelines:  LEHSguidance.org and click on Scholarship & Financial Aid to find the information.  Note:  Preference may be made to a grandchild of a Class of ’65 classmate.
If you can make a donation this year, we could possibly award a second scholarship.  You can request a Scholarship Donation form on our website.  Thank you for considering this worthy cause.
