Donations will endow a local scholarship in memory of Tanya English,
continuing her impact on our community and our students.
OUR SCHOLARSHIPS
The Focus of Our Efforts
Wakulla Academic Boosters stewards 42 different scholarships ranging from $600-$15,000. Initial endowments were made by local individuals and businesses who wanted to encourage students to continue their education and give back to their local community. The majority of these scholarships are restricted to Tallahassee Community College due to our funding covenants, however a limited number are available for other colleges. The Wakulla Academic Boosters Team works year round to increase scholarship offerings and funding.

ENDOWMENT SCHOLARSHIPS
With the support of local community groups and businesses, our scholarship offerings go beyond to offer more each year.
HEAD START SCHOLARSHIPS
Head Start scholarships are specifically for good students who may not be thinking that higher education is possible for them.
>>> Students graduating from high school in Wakulla County, are invited to apply during their Senior year of high school. The WAB begins to review applications in the Spring, and will notify the scholarship recipients by the end of the school year. <<<
TOGETHER, WE CAN HELP OUR STUDENTS
The WAB is committed to supporting Wakulla County students
Want to create a scholarship? Scholarships in any amount are a wonderful way to show that your business or organization supports student success. Scholarships can also be named in honor of an individual, as a memorial or tribute. The Wakulla Academic Boosters can help you create this legacy!
The WAB is the local leader in college and technical school scholarships for graduating high school seniors in Wakulla County. We are a homegrown, non-profit, philanthropic, volunteer organization dedicated to student success. We work to help dozens of students each year receive the financial support they need to complete their higher education goals.
ABOUT THE BOOSTERS
Wakulla Academic Boosters was founded by Walter C. Dodson Jr. and Judge Mike Carter in February of 1979 to promote academic excellence, recognize good scholarship and reward deserving students with scholarship assistance.
Today the Academic Boosters acts like a typical boosters organization for a sport-- except all Wakulla County students are on our team! We serve as stewards for the scholarships that have been endowed, and sponsor events that promote academic excellence.
SERVING STUDENTS IS WHAT WE DO!
