Alumni Association to meet

Grand Coulee High School Alumni Association will meet at 1 p.m., on Wednesday, May 17, at Grand Coulee Community Church, 405 Center Street, one block south of the old GCHS building. The purpose of the meeting is to select recipients for the 2017 scholarship awards. Selection will be a little more difficult this year, as the Board of Directors voted to broaden the eligibility of students who may apply for the annual scholarships to include any graduating high school senior who is a direct descendant of alumni who attended the Grand Coulee School District at any time, as well as seniors from Lake Roosevelt High School. Also added by the Association this year are two scholarships for a student who has completed at least one year of college and is a direct descendant of a former student of Grand Coulee School District 55. The Board would appreciate any alumni in the area attending the meeting and helping with the selection process.
