For over 60 years the Glide Community Club has been honoring outstanding community members for their dedicated community service.  In 2005 the Club decided to award college scholarships to outstanding Glide High School graduating Seniors.  The organization feels that not only were academics important but community service should be included.  Each year awarding of the scholarship is included in the Glide First Citizen Celebration.
 

The GCC Scholarship Committee asks students to include in their scholarship application 4 things:

     * Your plan for your future: educational, career, life

     * Your demonstrated persistence to go after and achieve goals

     * Your clearly thought out financial plan, including your contributions from work and savings

     * Your civic-mindedness and community involvement: 
              how have you been giving back to others until now, and how do you plan to give back in the future?

 
Each year the selection process is very difficult.  GHS has an abundance of outstanding young men and women who will not only be outstanding leaders tomorrow, but the First Citizens of tomorrow.
