OUR PROGRAMS
The Ark-La-Tex Longhorn Breeders Association has been a proud supporter of the Youth and further education in our organization. We realize this is our future. Our organization offers two programs to our members.
Our Affiliate offers a $1000 Scholarship to be awarded to a Junior Member and Members. They must be a graduating Senior and attending College during the Fall Semester following their High School graduation. The student is required to fill out an application and an Essay. If more than one member applies, than the recipient will be chosen by the Committee or an unbiased Source also chosen by the Committee. The Scholarship money will be paid directly to the College.
This year we are extending this Scholarship to College students. If we do not have a qualifying High School Senior, then we will present it to a qualifying College applicant. The college
applicant must have a minimum 3.0 grade point average at his/her present University or College and they must be an active Ark-La-Tex member.
Deadline and rules are the same for both application. Applications below.
We also give away a cash Scholarship to a graduating Senior who has participated in our Annual Fall Show in October. This is done through our Calf Donation Program. If a Senior's name is drawn during the Calf Donation Drawing, then he or she will be awarded a cash scholarship to be paid to the college they will be attending in the Fall. This is explained at the Show and the recipient must be present to win.
The winner of our 2018 senior Scholarship is Peyton Anderson. She will be attending Mississippi State University in the fall. Peyton is a graduating Senior from Clear Lake High School in Clear Lake, Texas. Peyton is a member of the Longhorn Project at JSC and graduated in the top 3% of her Graduating Class. She is also a member of the National Honor Society, National Technical Honor Society, French Honor Society, National Science Honor Society, the Mu Alpha Theta Math Honor Society and a veterinary intern.
Congratulations to Peyton and we wish you well.
