What is the John Tramontano Jr. Education Foundation?

The John Tramontano Jr. Education Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) education trust established to give parents an opportunity to send their children to a school of their choice. Applications are submitted and randomly selected. Currently, a total of 10 scholarships are awarded. The value of the scholarship is 50 percent of the child's tuition to a maximum of $1,000. In order to receive the scholarship, the child must be entering grades K-8 and must attend a private or parochial school. The child may also choose to attend a public school outside of their school district. For more information, contact Dianne Wodarski at 814/833-3200.

Must an application be completed for each child from the same family?
