The purpose of the Oconee Lions Club scholarships is to recognize the achievements of two OCHS graduating seniors who provide the evidence of the following criteria: (1) good citizenship, (2) an active interest in the civic, cultural, social and moral welfare of the community, (3) academic achievement, and (4) a record of service to the community.  The award is not intended necessarily to recognize students with high grade point averages. In the evaluation, consideration will be given to need, recommendations, personal achievements, and a statement of the applicant's goals. Special weight will be given to community service accomplishments.  The amount of the award is $1,000 each. Applications may be picked up in the counseling office and are due by 3:00 PM on April 21 to the counseling office.
