Graduating seniors from Stratford High School and Bunnell High School are eligible to receive the Vicki Soto Memorial Scholarship—a four-year renewable $5,000 scholarship awarded once each year. 

In addition to awarding these two local scholarships, we have expanded The Vicki Soto Memorial Scholarship to be awarded state-wide and nationally as well. One recipient from the state of Connecticut and one recipient from around the country will receive a one-time $5,000 scholarship. All recipients of the scholarship must be pursuing a college degree at an accredited university in the field of education.

The deadline to apply for The Vicki Soto Memorial Scholarship is April 1, 2020.
