Jennifer Mitchel Scholarship

The Jennifer Mitchell Memorial Scholarship Fund was established in 1990 to recognize graduating seniors in two northern Virginia public high schools (Herndon and South Lakes) who have attained a solid record of achievement despite economic, family, linguistic, or other difficulties that would have impeded less dedicated and determined students.  In its initial year, $900 scholarships were awarded to two individuals; since that time, the Fund has steadily increased its commitments, dividing $11,200 among 7 recipients in June 2019.  Total awards since 1990 have amounted to $206,350 to 194 individual students.
