“I am grateful for my friends and family who have supported me through my social and academic endeavor. I have made many sacrifices to achieve my academic goals and it is fulfilling to be recognized amongst my peers,” said Greenberg.
“During my years at PV, I have been shown such kindness and support. I truly value all of the teachers who have helped me grow as a person and am incredibly grateful for the opportunities I have been given. I have also made many wonderful friends here at PV who have made these past four years very memorable,” said Wilson.

Students in grades 9-12 who are interested in applying for scholarships can find resources online as the counseling office maintains a college and post graduation information webpage with scholarships and financial aid. In addition, the counselors publish a monthly newsletter about upcoming scholarship information and deadlines. “Students can begin by researching scholarships offered by the schools that they are applying to. University scholarships usually offer the most funding. That should be done in the Fall as they apply for schools. Other community scholarships usually have deadlines in the spring,” said counselor Melissa Plants who coordinates the Awards and Scholarship Night. The Virtual Counseling Office has many useful links to start a college or career search.
