You're Invited
The annual Anacortes Schools Foundation Scholarships Awards Ceremony will be held on Wed., May 23, at 6:30 P.M. at Brodniak Hall at the high school. Scholarship recipients have been invited; the event is open to the public.
More than $82,000 will be given in scholarships, the majority to graduating high school seniors who have shown great potential for college and trade school success. The scholarships recognize a wide range of achievement in science, math, music, art and athletics. Leadership, citizenship and volunteer efforts are also recognized.
Scholarships are created by donors wishing to honor family or loved ones, and by local residents who see the need to bolster student potential in the midst of skyrocketing college costs. Donors sometimes remain anonymous, but often they meet their fund recipients at the awards ceremony.

Supporting Anacortes Schools and Students Since 1984!
The Anacortes Schools Foundation is a non-profit, 501 (c) (3) volunteer organization which functions independently of the school district for the benefit of our students, educators, and community.
Created from just one family's donation in 1984, ASF now manages more than $1.3 million in assets and distributes more than $60,000 in annual scholarships. Originally known as the Fidalgo Island Educational Youth Foundation, Anacortes Schools Foundation's mission is to:
- Grant scholarship awards to students
- Assist educators in their professional development
- Support educational programs in the Anacortes School District
The ASF believes passionately in the importance of community awareness and involvement in our schools. We sponsor the annual All-Class Reunion and the annual Awards Night where scholarships are presented to our selected students. We welcome students, parents, alumni and community members of all ages to make inquiries at any time. If you would like to know more, please contact us now!
