TWO SCHOLARSHIPS AVAILABLE FOR 2021 LODI AND POYNETTE HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATES

Dekorra Lutheran Scholarships Available!
 
The Steuer-Mitchell Perpetual Education Fund has been established at Dekorra Lutheran Church (DLC)  through a generous gift by the estate of Robert E. Mitchell.  Two scholarships are available this year.

The scholarship recipient(s) shall be persons who have demonstrated exemplary personal character, have been diligent in their academic studies, and have a need for this financial assistance in order to feasibly pursue a post high school course of study.  We hope to award a scholarship to both a Lodi and a Poynette student.

Scholarships will be awarded for one year of undergraduate education, although a recipient may re-apply for consideration in subsequent years.  The applicant’s past high school course of study may include college, university or trade schools.  Applicants need not be current grads but can be returning adult students.
​
In order to apply for the scholarship, please go to the DLC website at www.dekorralutheran.org and  complete the Essay Questions.  The current committee feels that the ability to communicate is important for success.  The Essay Questions are:    

1.  How will your continuing education help you to give back to your community and your church?
2.  How has your experience at Dekorra Lutheran Church prepared you for life after High School?
3.  How has your experience at Dekorra Lutheran Church given you skills for success in higher education and adulthood?

 
If you are a current grad, attach the Essay Questions to the Scholarship Application form provided by your school.  If you are not a recent grad, simply fill out the Essay Questions and return them via email to dekorra@dekorralutheran.org or to:
