Scholarships

The Amanda J. Mierzwa Memorial Scholarship was established in 2017 in honor of their beloved daughter who passed away from cancer at age 34.  One or more scholarships are awarded annually to a female graduate of a Jackson County high school who is majoring (or will major) in a STEM field at the University of Michigan--Ann Arbor.  Columbia Central's own Rachel Rudd has been a three-year recipient of this scholarship and will graduate from U of M this spring.  We are so proud of Rachel and all of her accomplishments! Lindsey Stiles has also been a recipient of the Amanda J. Mierzwa Memorial Scholarship and is very excited for the opportunities it will bring her.

All eligible current and former students may apply for this scholarship no later than May 31st.
