The Elizabeth D. Leckie Scholarship Fund is accepting applications for the 2015-2016 academic year.

The Leckie Scholarship is given annually to deserving Butler County students in hopes they will see the advantage of returning to Butler County to live and work after they complete their education.  The scholarship was established in memory of Elizabeth D. Leckie, a former resident of Greenville and a teacher at W.O. Parmer for many years.  The number and amount of scholarships awarded varies from year to year and is determined on the basis of need and the applicant’s academic achievement.

All new applicants and those students renewing their applications should pick up an application packet from Ann Steiner Gregory at Community Neighbor Bank, located on the Greenville Bypass.

The deadline for submitting completed applications is May 8.

For more information, contact Gregory at (334) 371-1000.
