THE PURPOSE OF THESE GRANTS IS TO FACILITATE THE ADMNISTRATION OF THE SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM. 1 0 PART I, LINE 2: WE FACILITATE AN ANNUAL APPLICATION PROCESS FOR SCHOLARSHIP ASSISTANCE TO ATTEND FUSION LEARNING, INC. AND BARNSTABLE ACADEMY, INC. THE FOUNDATION STAFF GATHERS THE INFORMATION FOR EACH APPLICANT THROUGH A WEB BASED SUBMISSION FORM. WE EVALUATE THE CANDIDATES WITH A SCORECARD (ANNUAL INCOME AND TAX RETURN, PARENTS ABILITY TO PAY 5% OF TOTAL SCHOLARSHIP, A STUDENT ESSAY, A PARENT ESSAY, HEAD OF SCHOOL ENDORSEMENT AND STATEMENT). THE TOP 5 CANDIDATES IN EACH REGION ARE REVIEWED BY THE BOARD SELECTION COMMITTEE. SCHEDULE I, PART III THE FOUNDATION BELIEVES THAT EMPOWERING TODAY'S YOUTH WITH A SOLID EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION IS ESSENTIAL. FOR MANY STUDENTS, TRADITIONAL CLASSROOMS ARE NOT THE ENVIRONMENT WHERE LEARNING IS BEST ACHIEVED. FUSION ACADEMY IS A PRIVATE SCHOOL SYSTEM THAT OFFERS A REVOLUTIONARY EDUCATIONAL MODEL FOR STUDENTS WHO HAVE STRUGGLED IN A TRADITIONAL SCHOOL SYSTEM. THROUGH ITS FOCUS ON INDIVIDUALIZED LEARNING, FUSION ACADEMY PROVIDES UNIQUE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES AND A CURRICULUM BASED ON THE STUDENT'S PERSONAL LEARNING STYLE, ABILITIES, AND EDUCATIONAL GOALS. IN ORDER TO OPTIMIZE THE NUMBER OF STUDENTS WHO CAN BENEFIT FROM ATTENDING FUSION ACADEMY, THE FOUNDATION HAS ESTABLISHED A SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM TO ASSIST STUDENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES. SCHOLARSHIPS ARE AWARDED TO STUDENTS THAT SHOW DOCUMENTED PROOF OF FINANCIAL HARDSHIP. A DETAILED APPLICATION AND FAMILY ESSAY ARE ALSO REQUIRED. SCHOLARSHIP RECIPIENTS HAVE BEEN CHOSEN EACH YEAR FROM THE POOL OF APPLICANTS ATTENDING FUSION ACADEMY IN GRADES 6-12. SCHOLARSHIP RECIPIENTS HAVE BEEN CHOSEN ON AN OBJECTIVE AND NON-DISCRIMINATORY BASIS BY THE FOUNDATION'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS, WHICH IS A DIVERSE GROUP OF KNOWLEDGEABLE INDIVIDUALS INCLUDING TEACHERS, FORMER AND CURRENT FUSION ACADEMY SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATION 36-4776680 FUSION ACADEMY PARENTS AND COMMUNITY SUPPORTERS. SCHOLARSHIP RECIPIENTS ARE CHOSEN BASED UPON AN ASSESSMENT OF FINANCIAL HARDSHIP, AS WELL AS THE STUDENT'S NEED FOR THE INDIVIDUALIZED LEARNING THAT FUSION ACADEMY OFFERS. IN ADDITION, SCHOLARSHIP RECIPIENTS MUST MAINTAIN A GRADE POINT AVERAGE OF 2.5 OR ABOVE, AND SHOW OUTSTANDING (90% OR BETTER) ATTENDANCE THROUGHOUT THE SCHOOL YEAR.
