A Special Announcement

Every year at Envision, we recognize one graduating senior from each of our schools with a $1000 Jackie Robinson Founder’s Scholarship.  These awards are given in honor of all of Envision’s founders: Bob Lenz and Daniel McLaughlin, as well as founding support staff, board members, teachers, students, and parents.

We have named this scholarship after Jackie Robinson because he was an extraordinary leader.  Famous for being the first African-American in major league baseball, he was also the first in his family to graduate from college (UCLA) and he served his country during World War II. As a civil rights leader, Jackie Robinson epitomized a life of service.

The winners of these awards are selected by each school’s staff.  Candidates must be planning to attend a 4-year university and will be first generation college graduates.  They also must demonstrate college readiness through excellent portfolio defenses and they must exemplify the spirit of Jackie Robinson’s life through their commitment to community service.
