School Spirit Scholarship
Winner Receives
$1,500!1st Place Spiritwear, the nation's leading provider of premium scholastic spiritwear, is proud to sponsor the "I Have Spirit, Yes I Do" scholarship for high school seniors!
At 1st Place Spiritwear, spirit isn't just something we sell, it is something we live. It is a powerful mindset that can transform challenges into opportunities, elevate an athlete's performance, and inspire students to reach beyond expectations. In today's schools and communities, that kind of SPIRIT matters more than ever!
When students demonstrate passion, ambition, and dedication, both on and off campus, their leadership motivates others. School spirit enhances the student experience, creating lasting memories that extend far beyond graduation. It also fosters higher expectations, encouraging individuals to make positive contributions to their schools, communities, and the world. That is why we created this scholarship, to recognize and reward students who are making that kind of difference.
At 1st Place Spiritwear, we are committed to supporting students who embody school spirit. Research shows that students who actively engage with their school communities tend to perform better academically, experience greater happiness, and participate more socially and civically. We are proud to celebrate and invest in those students through this scholarship.
Passion. Support. Excitement. Ambition. Dedication.
These are the qualities you'll find in a 1st Place Spiritwear scholarship applicant.
