Every year, the NFVA awards four $1,000 scholarships to graduating high school students who live in North Falmouth. The awards are based on academic achievement, school and local activities, and overall service to the community. There were 10 applicants this year and we want to thank our Scholarship Team for their dedication to carefully reading and scoring each of those applications.
Our 2024 winners have achieved excellence in all areas. Our congratulations to them all!
