WHS PTSA Achievement Award: This award will focus on Achievement, a concept that encompasses both academic and extra-curricular activities. Each part of the application will be considered. As an applicant, you will demonstrate how you have invested in yourself during your high school career.
The Liza Yore Spirit Award: Our former WHS PTSA president, Liza Yore, modeled a life of community involvement. Not only was Liza an award-wining PTA leader, but she also was a high-achieving fundraiser for cancer research, an enthusiastic volunteer, an athlete and die-hard sports fan, a beloved mother and friend, and a dedicated employee and supporter of Northshore schools. In her memory, this scholarship is designed to highlight the "One Falcon, One Family" mantra. As an applicant, you will demonstrate your involvement and how you embody "One Falcon, One Family". While academics are an important part of your experience at WHS, the Scholarship Committee wants to award the Liza Yore Spirit Award to a senior who has demonstrated a positive impact on their school and/or community. While the Achievement Scholarship is about how you've invested in yourself in high school, the Liza Yore Spirit Scholarship is how you have invested in your community.
