2022 Graduate Laptop Assistance is being fulfilled by Zach Parent and John Sturgis in partnership with the Wellington Community Foundation and WHS staff.  Through the normal yearly contributions and memorial donations, Steve's Laptop Fund has enough money in the account to accommodate every applicant who turned in their paperwork by the February 24 deadline.  Those students have been contacted via their email (email from Katie Ford) and have until September 6, 2022, to submit a Fall 2022 course schedule to fulfill the requirement to receive a laptop assistance check for $200.

*******************************************

PLEASE NOTE:  A new 2022 Application Form is located in WHS Guidance Office. You'll have approx. 7-8 weeks to get the form, you fill out your part and a parent and or guardian's signature as well, then turn back in to the WHS Guidance Office by the deadline. I strongly suggest you take CELL PHONE PIC of completed form for future reference. Also NOTE: the deadline is clear, failure to turn it in ON TIME, will be too late - NO EXCEPTIONS! (DEADLINE IS FEB. 24, 2022 3:30PM)

For the 4th consecutive year, the laptop program is no longer part of the LOCAL SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM administered by the WHS Guidance Office. Prior to to the 2019 school year, if you filled out that application, you were also eligible for a laptop through the Crusader Website. For this year, and the past 3 years, it has not been a part of the other program.

Again, this year, a separate application will be utilized, that application will be available in the WHS Guidance Office. Like the last 3 years, "PROOF OF ENROLLMENT" will be required before a check for laptop assistance will be issued, that proof of enrollment deadline will run well into this coming summer. Those 2022 WHS Graduates, planning on attending college or vocational training, are eligible to apply. The checks can be applied towards what each eligible graduate requires. WHS Seniors are reminded of the deadline "numerous" times. As already mentioned, the deadline will be FIRM - NO EXCEPTIONS!

WHS.CC LAPTOP/SCHOLARSHIP DONATIONS, anytime throughout the year, can be mailed to:

Steve Sturgis
1101 N. Washington Ave.
Wellington, KS 67152-0556

Please make CHECKS payable to "Wellington Community Foundation". On memo line write WHS.CC Laptop Assistance.

Thank you sincerely to the many folks that contribute towards this cause! The students that participate (and their parents) appreciate it. Sending kids off to college or vocational programs can be very expensive. Providing the laptop assistance and choice, helps a little with the overall expense and it's a pleasure for all of us to be able to do that. We are expecting to issue $200 checks again, to eligible seniors. GO BIG RED!

$5,611.61 (Class of 2022 $$)
