Missing Deadlines
Missing these deadlines may result in the loss of program benefits. For example, seniors may not be eligible for certain scholarships. Students might not be recognized (with certificates, for example) at school programs. Finally, late forms may cause the student to not be continually enrolled in the program.

The following service opportunities are submitted by local agencies and organizations. They are options -- not the only community service activities available to Crosby Scholars.
