HCEF is proud to announce that more than $100,000 in scholarships have been awarded to graduating seniors across Henderson County Public Schools in 2025. These scholarships honor academic achievement, leadership, service, future career goals, and a commitment to our community.
With support from generous donors, local businesses, and memorial scholarship funds, students from six high schools—Career Academy, Early College, East Henderson, Hendersonville High, North Henderson, and West Henderson—were recognized during spring awards ceremonies.
Each scholarship reflects the values and legacy of the individuals, families, and organizations that make them possible. These awards are not only a financial boost for students as they begin their post-secondary journeys—they also serve as a reminder that their community believes in them and their potential to make a difference.
