POCATELLO — The School District 25 Education Foundation’s scholarship selection committee is pleased to announce the recipients of the 7th annual Terry Perkins Educational Scholarship. The $3,000 renewable scholarship was created in 2018 to help fund recipients’ post-high school education at an accredited two-year, four-year or vocational school. Recipients are eligible to renew the scholarship for an additional year if requirements are met, making the total potential value of the scholarship $6,000. Recipients may defer the scholarship for up to two years.

In 2018, the School District 25 Education Foundation received a nearly $1.5 million gift from the Glenn Perkins Family Living Trust. A significant portion of the investment income earned through the endowment is dedicated to supporting the Pocatello/Chubbuck School District 25 debate and music programs at Century, Highland and Pocatello high schools. Additional earnings are allocated annually toward the establishment of the Terry Perkins Educational Scholarship. The Terry Perkins Educational Scholarship funds two $3,000 renewable scholarships for eligible learners attending Century, Highland and Pocatello high schools. In 2022, another scholarship was added to benefit an eligible learner attending New Horizon High School.

With gratitude to the Perkins family for this amazing gift that will continue helping students for decades to come, the Foundation is pleased to announce the following recipients for the seventh annual scholarship awards for the class of 2025. The Foundation wishes each of the recipients the best of luck in their future academic endeavors.
