The Scholarship is given based on numerical ratings of the Senior Dance Team members by their fellow members, advisors, & teachers on each of the
“Sarah Qualities” (see right). The highest overall scorers are awarded a scholarship. The scholarship has been valued between $500 and $1000. The amount and number of scholarships awarded is based on
clinic attendance, donations, and sponsorship income. Since 2005 we have been able to give three scholarships with the proceeds from the Clinic in addition to significant funding for the Dance Team’s
competition activities.

about Sarah: her spirit, her smile, her friendship, her loyalty, her leadership, her confidence, and her love.
