We are excited to share an outstanding opportunity for our students through the 2026 Lowell Wolf WALK Memorial Scholarship, hosted by the New York Coalition for Transportation Safety.
This scholarship includes a Pedestrian Safety Video Contest, open to all high school juniors and seniors across New York. Students are invited to create a short video that explains New York State pedestrian safety laws and answers the question:
“Why is it important to educate your community about pedestrian and traffic safety?”
This is a fantastic chance for students to showcase creativity, raise awareness, and earn scholarship money.
Key Details:
-
🎬 Who can apply: High school juniors & seniors
-
💰 Prize: Two winners will each receive $1,000 scholarships

📅 Deadline: May 31, 2026

🧑🏫 Support Event: A representative will be available in the school library on March 30 to help students with applications and answer questions
Notably, participation has been limited in the past—only 10 students entered statewide last year—making this an excellent opportunity with strong odds for our students!
Families are encouraged to support and motivate their students to participate in this meaningful and rewarding experience.
