Scholarship Recipients

The Exceptional Kids Organization awards four $500 scholarships yearly to Exceptional Students graduating from a high school in the Southwest SELPA region of southern California who are pursuing education beyond high school.

This can include 4 year university programs pursuing a bachelor’s degree, community college programs pursuing an AA degree, or a vocational training program, pursuing a diploma or certificate. The EKO is proud to honor our scholarship awardees for 2024.
