We recently entered into a unique arrangement between our school and Special Olympics Louisiana to offer ScholarWisetm: A $120,000 Scholarship Trust Giveaway. Benefiting Special Olympics Louisiana, ScholarWise gives students and families in <greater New Orleans/greaterSouthwest Louisiana/greater Baton Rouge> the chance to win a $120,000 scholarship trust, which may be used to pay for any qualified educational expense for learners of all ages: from pre-K to post-grad to adult continuing education. Funds may also be used to retire student loans.

As a Premier Partner School, we earn $25 from every ScholarWise ticket purchased by you, a family member, or friend of our academic community. Simply provide our school name on the order form or give it to the representative who takes your call. This means new funds to support our programs, add new resources, and deliver quality education. Net proceeds from the program support the worthy mission of Special Olympics Louisiana.

You can help your student enjoy an academic future relieved of financial pressure while supporting both our school and Special Olympics Louisiana. It’s a remarkable opportunity to help your student, our school, and a richly deserving organization like Special Olympics.
