Beginning in 2008, Garretson "Dollars for Scholars" has offered money to Garretson students wishing to further their education. Now known as the Garretson Community Scholarship Foundation, to date, they have gifted $240,900 to 228 graduates of Garretson High School. Thank you to the Garretson community for supporting our students. A selection committee from outside of the community has chosen the recipients each year.
This year's eight scholarship recipients were awarded a total of $18,500.
