2025 Anna Lucile Brackbill Scholarship
In 1998 the society established the Anna Lucile Brackbill fund, which annually grants scholarships to a Hempfield High School graduating senior.
The East Petersburg Historical Society offers a $500 Scholarship to a Hempfield High School Senior who meets a series of standards established by EPHS. The EPHS Scholarship Application is posted each year on the Hempfield School Links Website for eager, intrepid, community driven seniors to pursue.
The winner is chosen by the Hempfield High School Staff and awarded during the high school graduation. Proudly celebrating our 2025 recipient, we wish Mr. Dominic Acevedo all the best for a bright future. Congratulations.
