About our scholarship programs
 Grades 6-12 Technology Scholarship
The BCSSA, in collaboration with Apple Canada, established the Technology Scholarship program to recognize outstanding achievement in technology-based learning. Students are invited to submit a website project for an opportunity to receive a scholarship prize from Apple. Winners in 2005-2006 will each receive the new video iPod. This year, we have added a "best website of the year" Grand Prize of an iBook.
 The scholarship selection criteria include creativity, visual appearance, technical quality and educational content. There is a total of six iPod awards, one in each of the six grade-level entry categories: Grade 6-7, Grade 8, Grade 9, Grade 10, Grade 11, Grade 12. The Grand Prize winner with the best website of the year not only gets an iPod but also an iBook!
Grade 12 Essay Scholarship
 The Essay Scholarship program provides financial assistance to students planning to enter the field of education. Six students (one in each of the BCSSA's six regional chapters) will receive a $1,000 scholarship. Application requirements include demonstrating academic excellence and school/community leadership and the submission of an essay. The essay topic in 2005-2006: Achievement of All Students.
