Post-Secondary Program

The Westminster Public Schools Foundation administers a variety of scholarships that encourage and inspire students to graduate high school and pursue their continuing educational dreams. In many cases, the scholarships make higher education accessible to students who might not otherwise dream of a college education. Scholarships are only open to students graduating from Westminster High School and Hidden Lake High School. There is a good range of awards. Some are based on merit and some on need. There are also multi-year scholarships. Our Post-Secondary Program also supports/funds students through Career Tech Education and Project Lead the Way.

Adolescents

The Benevolent Fund for student assistance is aimed at providing basic medical support to students that cannot afford them. The ultimate goal of this fund is to allow disadvantaged students to focus on their learning by receiving the necessary assistance they require to be successful. This allows them to feel better and gives them the appropriate tools that enable them to be successful in a school setting.

These funds support items such as eyeglasses, hearing aids, wheelchair batteries, one-time supply of medications, and emergency dental visits. This is an internal fund that can only be accessed by Westminster Public Schools staff members on behalf of the students.

Population(s) Served
Children and youth

The needs of our students change and as a Foundation we want to be responsive to these needs. Therefore, we created a bucket of funding for key district initiatives. ​

The Foundation partners closely with district leadership to identify educational priorities. In recent years we invested in several initiatives such as the Math Academy which offers free after-school tutoring to elementary and middle school students. We have supported the Career Tech and Education program, the Future Center located at Westminster High School, the PASS parenting program and Project Lead the Way to name a few.
