Keller Athletic Boosters Scholarship

Each year Keller Athletic Boosters (KAB) provides scholarships to KHS seniors who participate in UIL athletics. The number and amount of each scholarship is decided by the KAB Board at the end of the year based on availability of funds. The scholarships are intended to be used to pay for tuition, room and board.

 

Application submissions are due by April 7, 2025.

  3. Essay written by applicant of 500 words or less and double spaced 12pt font:
