(Atlantic, Iowa) – The Atlantic High School’s Senior Alumni Scholarship Foundation (SASF) recently held their annual meeting and welcomed new members Becky Ludington Stahr, Brad Pellett and Ann Johnk. The SASF was created by Atlantic alumni with the goal of providing need-based scholarships to graduating seniors of AHS.

Funding for the foundation is provided by donations from Atlantic alumni. Generous donations from individuals and previous classes have allowed the foundation to grow. The first $500 scholarship was given out in 2003. In 2024 the number of scholarships awarded was expanded to reach as many students as possible. The SASF increased the scholarship amounts this year and will award five, $2,500 scholarships to the Class of 2025. Students must have a GPS of 2.5 and higher to qualify. Applications are online at the Atlantic High School website and are due April 7th of this year. Students are encouraged to apply and contact Gina Honke for more information.
