High School Scholarships

The Monticello Park Neighborhood Association awards scholarships to deserving high school seniors who live within the boundaries of Monticello Park Neighborhood Association or attend Thomas Jefferson High School. Funds for these scholarships are from our annual Holiday Home Tour and generous donations from area businesses. Awards are based on merit and need, and include a written application as well as a personal interview. Monticello Park Neighborhood Association is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization and all donations to the scholarship fund are tax deductible.
