Description

The Dayle Wood Memorial Scholarship was established in 1988. Dayle Wood was an outstanding young man whose life was tragically cut short in 1962 when he was killed in a car accident. Dayle's aunt, LaVerne Bish of Lincoln, established this scholarship in his name to assist graduating seniors from Palmyra High School. Applicants must be a current graduating senior of Palmyra High School, Palmyra, Nebraska. They must demonstrate scholastic application and achievement and intend to continue his/her education. Financial need will be utilized only as a tie-breaker in scholarship selection. Funding will not be distributed until the start of the student's sophomore year. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Lincoln Community Foundation for more information.
