Shay Scholarship

Several years ago, Katz Yeshiva High School of South Florida received a gift from Susan and Scott Shay to create the Shay Scholars Endowment Fund. It awards a number of students who attended public or private middle schools a four-year merit-based partial scholarship to attend KYHS. Students are selected on the basis of their interest in academic and religious growth and their ability to handle the challenging dual-curriculum program.

How to apply (only available to students currently attending public or private non-Jewish day schools):

1) Students must write a 250-word essay on why they would like to attend a Jewish day school.

2) Essays must be e-mailed to Executive Director Shimmie Kaminetsky msk@yeshivaHS.org
