It is that time of the year that we begin to interview Akron Public School students for the 15, $1,000 Akron Rotary Foundation scholarships.
We will be conducting the interviews in person again this year. I am looking for two Rotarians to assist me with each of the interviews. The time commitment is up to 3.5 hours dependent on the number of student applicants we receive for each category.
The five categories are as follows: 1) Manufacturing, Engineering and Skilled Trades; 2) Health and Human Services; 3) Public Service; 4) Arts, Media and Communications and 5) Business, Marketing and Information Technology.
Interview Dates are as follows:
Manufacturing, Engineering and Skilled Trades: Wednesday, February 14th: 8-11:30
Health and Human Services: Friday, February 23rd: 8 - 11:30
Public Service: Tuesday, March 5th: 8 - 11:30
Arts, Media, and Communication: Tuesday, March 19th: 8 - 11:30
Business, Marketing, and Information Technology: Wednesday, March 27th: 8 - 11:30
I will forward the materials I receive from APS about each of the applicants a couple of days prior to the scheduled interview.
I will also send you a copy of the interview questions we use for your guidance during the interviews.
If you are interested in participating in the interviews, please email Terrence Dalton tdalton1226@gmail.com and let me know which category you would like to be considered for. I will notify you as soon as I can as to who has been selected. Once I get a maximum of two for each category, I will email Club members letting you know a category has been closed.
Interviews will be held at the APS administration building (10 North Main Street, Akron).
