Each year, South Central Bank will award a $1,500.00 scholarship to a promising high school senior, who is a resident of the Tompkinsville/Monroe County Community, to assist with costs in attending the college of their choice.
Students to be considered for the Scholarship, may be attending any public or private school within Monroe County.
