Seniors graduating from South Whidbey High School in Langley have about a month to apply for a $500 scholarship from the Maj. Megan McClung Marine Corps League Detachment 1210.
To be eligible, students must be graduating seniors; must be a family member of an active duty serviceman or honorably discharged veteran or member of Reserve Officer Training Corps; have a grade point average of 2.0 or better; and be accepted for secondary education in the fall.
Applications are available at the school’s counseling center. Completed applications must be postmarked by April 2 and should contain at least one personal recommendation and a personal essay.
The “Let Us Never Forget” scholarship is offered in honor of Maj. Megan McClung, who was killed in Iraq in 2006.
