Hosted by the Germantown Community
Scholarship Fund (GCSF), the academic successes and
achievements of Germantown area’s high school graduating
seniors were celebrated and recognized on May 25, 2016 at
Germantown High School. Proud students gathered with their
parents, family, school faculty and administrators to be
recognized and receive well-deserved post-secondary
scholarships and awards. GCSF was priviledged to distribute
89 awards totaling more than $127,000. Additional scholastic and
athletic scholarships ranging from several hundred to
thousands of dollars per student were also awarded by
institutions of higher education, area businesses,
foundations, local unions and groups representing military
affiliations.
Recognizing the important role
teachers have in developing students to become successful in
their post-secondary pursuits and due in part to the
inaugural U.S. Bank Run for funds held last year, GCSF was
able to increase its Teacher Grants from two to seven grants
this year. Teacher grant
award winners include: Vicki Niehus/Linda Krohn - 4th grade,
Rockfield Elementary School; Jocelyn Ritger - 1st grade,
Rockfield Elementary School; Jeanne Kasza - Spanish 1 and 2,

K-5 MacArthur Elementary School and K-1 Rockfield Elementary
School; Stephanie Milmoe - Physical Education, Germantown
High School and Kimberly King - 1st grade, MacArthur
Elementary School. Congratulations, teachers! The GCSF strives to select projects that
enrich classroom curriculum, impact a large number of
students and provide funding for a project that would
otherwise not be included in the school district budget.

High School Students
GCSF created the
Scholarship Planner to help high school students prepare
for scholarship applications. All incoming High School
Freshman will receive a Scholarship Planner with their
registration materials. Finding ways to pay for higher
education can be a daunting task. GCSF hopes to simplify the
process of completing general scholarship applications and
GCSF Scholarship applications by providing students with a
planner designed to record academics, in and out of school
activities, co-op participation, volunteerism, and
employment history. Printing of the Scholarship Planners was
funded by Dental Professionals. Copies of the planner are
available in the Germantown High School Guidance office, at
Dental Professionals and on this Web site.
