Redefining Dyslexia Scholarship

The Redefining Dyslexia Scholarship will be awarded to a graduating Callisburg senior to help aid them in their continued educational journey.  The chosen graduate will be awarded $1,000. The application process will begin in the spring semester of the graduating senior and is due on or before April 26th, 2024. 

This scholarship will be awarded to a student who uses their dyslexic characteristics as a spring board for discovering their unique strengths and excelling. We aren’t necessarily looking for a student with straight A’s, rather, a student who embraces their different way of thinking by standing out in their perseverance, resilience, and grit.

This scholarship was established to help pave the way and celebrate all the different branches of dyslexic strengths. Statistics show that 1 in 5 people are affected with dyslexia and we think it’s time to show the world that dyslexics were not meant to ‘fit in’, but rather, were made to ‘stand out’.
