About the Terry Perkins Educational Scholarship

In 2018, the School District 25 Education Foundation received a nearly $1.5 million gift from the Glenn Perkins Family Living Trust. A significant portion of the investment income earned through the endowment will be dedicated to supporting the Pocatello/Chubbuck School District 25 debate and music programs at Century, Highland and Pocatello high schools. Additional earnings will be allocated annually to fund and sustain the Terry Perkins Educational Scholarship. The Terry Perkins Educational Scholarship will fund two renewable $3,000 scholarships for eligible learners attending Century, Highland and Pocatello high schools and one renewable $3,000 scholarship for eligible learners attending New Horizon High School. Scholarship checks will be issued in August 2025. 

The School District 25 Education Foundation’s scholarship selection committee announced the recipients of the 6th annual Terry Perkins Educational Scholarship. The $3,000 renewable scholarship was created in 2018 to help fund recipients’ post-high school education at an accredited two-year, four-year or vocational school. Recipients are eligible to renew the scholarship for an additional year if requirements are met, making the total potential value of the scholarship $6,000. Recipients may defer the scholarship for up to two (2) years.
