Dr. Sharp is a 1962 graduate of Pendleton high School. The scholarship value is $6,000 per year or a total commitment of $24,000 per recipient. At this time the eight recipients of the scholarship are: Savannah Schlueter and Bryan Woods, 1012; Mariah Moore and Wyatt Hyatt, 2013; Chelsea Brossart and Colton Pugh, 2014; Melanie Mullins and Montgomery Franxman, 2015.

Eligible students will be contacted by the guidance office the week of December 14 and will receive a packet with required forms. The scholarship application packet is due by January 29, 2016 to the senior guidance counselor. The 2016 scholarship recipients will be selected and announced in early spring of 2016.
