Two Scholarship Opportunities for Seniors

We are pleased to offer our 12th Annual Legacy Student Scholarships, given in honor of past and present Board members and employees who have served Peach State for 20 years or more. These nine $2,500 scholarships will be awarded in May to high school seniors who will be attending college to pursue a degree in education and plan to return to Georgia to teach.

We are also pleased to offer the Dr. John Jackson Scholarship. This scholarship honors Dr. John Jackson, retired Superintendent of Oconee County Schools, for his contributions to the Oconee County school system. It will be awarded to an Oconee County Public School graduating senior pursuing a degree in education.


In order for students to be considered, completed applications and supporting documentation must be received by Peach State no later than March 21, 2014.
