Through the Shirley Satterfield Scholarship Fund, PPBC seeks to support Black students who demonstrate a desire and commitment to participate in PMS and PHS activities that require supplemental financial support.
The purpose of the Shirley Satterfield Scholarship Fund is to provide financial assistance to Black middle school and high school students, in the Princeton Public School District, who face economic barriers preventing them from participating in various school activities. By providing financial assistance, we seek to ensure that all Black students, regardless of economic circumstances, can engage in academic activities and extracurricular programs such as sports, educational trips, and other enriching experiences. This initiative promotes inclusivity, personal development, and academic success by relieving financial obstacles to full participation in and access to educational opportunities offered in the PPS district.
Applicants should provide as much information as possible about the need for scholarship support and the applicant's commitment to the activity or program to be supported.
Please be advised that the selection committee reserves the right to reject applications. Processing of applications and decisions may take up to three weeks before a decision is issued. Scholarship selections will be made on a rolling basis and decisions are limited to the availability of funding.
