RAM Forever Stepping Stones Endowed Scholarship
|
Identifying career pathways prior to graduation has the potential to expedite a student's matriculation into higher education. John H. Gamble, a Ralston High School graduate and his wife, Yvonne established a stepping stones endowed scholarship based on opportunities Dr. Gamble experienced during his graduate school studies. This scholarship is available to students enrolled in dual credit college and university courses, and students enrolled in the Advanced Placement (AP) program. In partnership with the Foundation, funds are provided each semester to cover costs for dual credit courses and AP exam fees. Scholarship amounts may vary based on the number of students who apply and the program's cost. Having completed those programs on the student's transcript shows colleges and universities they are motivated to succeed by undertaking and completing college-level work.
