Discus Awards

Back in September, I wrote about how the 2012-2013 program year is going to be a year of improvement for the Discus Awards. On that front, we are continuing to work on making the updates to our program that we hope will allow us to recognize more students and provide more scholarships for years to come.

The main reason for this update post is to explain a temporary change in the scholarship awarding schedule for this year. We will be announcing the winner of the first '12-'13 National All-Around Student Scholarship on Thursday, January 31st. We will then award the final 9 NAAS Scholarships of the year on Friday, June 28th. As a result of all the changes we have been making this year, we delayed the start of our recognition judging and we are choosing to award the majority of our NAAS Scholarships on June 28th this year to maximize the number of Finalists who will be considered for the scholarship.

For other scholarships that will be awarded through the Discus Awards program this year, just stay tuned to your inbox and our Facebook page for scholarship announcements!
