The SUTTER YUBA COMMUNITY FOUNDATION invites applicants to apply for the Sarah Jackson Memorial Scholarship. This is a one-time $500 award to be granted to a graduating high school senior who plans to attend college and major in Education, English, or Liberal Studies. Sarah E. Jackson taught English and Business courses at Yuba City High School from September 1978 until her retirement in June 1992. Her love of teaching was a driving force in her life, second only to her love of family. Those students who were privileged to learn under Sarah’s direction readily acknowledge the positive impact she had on their lives.

1. Be a graduating senior at a high school in the Sutter-Yuba area.
