Each year, CoServ Electric sponsors an educational, government-focused trip to the nation's capital (open to high school juniors and seniors whose parents/guardians are CoServ Electric members). For over seven decades, CoServ Electric has taken an active role in the North Texas communities we serve. In particular, we support and encourage the academic and community endeavors of our local students.
The W. Tip Hall, Jr. Scholarship is one way we recognize these future leaders, and we encourage parents and senior high school students alike to spend some time together during the upcoming Thanksgiving and Christmas breaks to research available funding for college tuition, fees, books, and housing. The scholarship is named after W. Tip Hall, Jr., a longtime educator, preacher and legislator who served on the CoServ Electric Board of Directors for ten years. Mr. Hall’s love and commitment to education, and his work in developing the scholarship program for CoServ Electric, is the reason the scholarship bears his name.
The purpose of this program is to encourage and support the academic endeavors of graduating high school seniors with an established connection to the electric cooperative, as they seek their education in an institute of higher learning in the state of Texas.
In 2009, CoServ Electric will provide ten $1000 scholarships. If interested in applying, your student should review:
It is important to follow all instructions, such as “hand writing” the essay on “My Future Life Plans and How This Scholarship Will Aid Me.” Additionally, it is crucial to submit completed applications with all required reference materials mentioned in the checklist.
