New BCTC Scholarship for 2023 graduates
Any high school seniors who have completed at least 12 credit hours with BCTC can receive a $2,500 (renewable!) scholarship to continue their education at BCTC and complete a degree. _________________________________________________________________________________________ See attached BCTC flyer about the Orthotic and Prosthetics Technology ProgramOne of our goals is to introduce high school teachers and students to the O&P Technology Program offered at the Bluegrass Community & Technical College (BCTC) in Lexington Kentucky, on the Leestown Campus. The Orthotics and Prosthetics Technology Program at Bluegrass provides students the specific technical and clinical skills required to perform the work of an O&P technician. The BCTC O&P Technology Program includes general and core curriculum with specific O&P courses, verbal and graphical communication skills, basic human anatomy, working knowledge of measurements and mathematics, and medical terminology leading to an AAS degree in Orthotic & Prosthetic Technology. ________________________________________________________________________________________
Local Scholarship Packets were made available on Feb. 1st. Seniors can pick up hard copies in the guidance office or use their school email to access them in the shared Google Drive. Mrs. Miracle sent an email to seniors. It must be an Anderson County Schools email address to access the Scholarship folder in Google Drive. Past graduates may pick up hard copies of the scholarship packet in the main office. The Anderson County Scholarship can be found at 2023 Anderson County Scholarship at the bottom of the page.
CHI Saint Joseph Health and Kentucky State University (KSU) have a five-year scholarship initiative. Scholarship awards are for two years of an Associate Degree in Nursing or the last two years of a Bachelor of Science Degree in Nursing at KSU. At least 30 scholarships will be available each year of this initiative. Of note, a work requirement accompanies this scholarship. Respectively, I am working alongside KSU to find qualified applicants interested in becoming Registered Nurses and working at our facilities. Please click herefor more information. (Please note that the dates for Fall 2023 will be updated shortly.)
I hope this information is of assistance. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me. Again, I thank you kindly for your time and consideration.

Hello! My name is Hannah Litkenhous, and I am the Volunteer Program Coordinator for the Kentucky Historical Society. Our campus is located in downtown Frankfort. We work to serve the local community and the whole of the Commonwealth by interpreting Kentucky's past. We host various special events and programs, from our First Friday lecture series to camps. But to make these events happen, we need the assistance of our community members. Currently, we have an increased demand for in-person programming and field trips. That is why I am reaching out to you today. We are in need of volunteers! Specifically, for our VolunTeen Ambassador program, teens ages 13-17 can assist KHS staff with our programs, including Scouting workshops, special events, and our signature school break camps. This is an excellent opportunity to gain work experience, earn valuable service hours for scholarship applications, and meet new friends! Each week of volunteer hours for summer camp totals around 35+, quickly meeting many service club and scholarship eligibility requirements. Plus, we offer many of these opportunities throughout the school year. All new volunteers must apply, interview, and complete a waiver packet and training. Our current training is set for Saturday, May 13, 2023, at 9:00 am and is required for all new and returning VolunTeens. So, be a part of KHS, and join our mission to educate and engage the public through Kentucky history in order to confront the challenges of the future. I hope to prevail upon you to share our inquiry with your group and networks. Whether that is posting our flyer on your community board, forwarding this email, or making an announcement at your next organizational meeting. We'd be happy for any support that you can give. Folks interested in becoming VolunTeen Ambassadors for KHS can find more information and apply on our website. Hannah Litkenhous Visitor Services Manager Kentucky Historical Society 100 W. Broadway ¦ Frankfort, KY 40601 502-782-8070 Did You Know... KHS needs your help with cataloging collections, leading tour groups, hosting educational programs, and more?
