GCISD Band Booster Club
Graduating Band Senior Scholarship
Information and Application Form
Each year, the Band Booster Club of Grapevine-Colleyville ISD has set aside money it has raised throughout the year to be given in the form of scholarships to deserving graduating band seniors from both GHS and CHHS. The amount of funds available from the boosters may change from year to year. The money is awarded as the band directors see fit. These scholarships are awarded each year at the band banquets and are a one-year scholarship. The award will be paid directly to the institution that the student will attend. The award is good only for the academic year following graduation from high school. Award selection will be made by the high school band directors and the results are final.
The GCISD Band Booster Scholarship will be awarded based on the following: financial need, musical accomplishments, citizenship, service to the band program, and responses to the questions below. Priority will be given to a student who will be majoring in music, but this is not a requirement for the award.
