Dalhart council approves four $2,000 Bonnet Dejarna scholarships
Summary
Council approved the scholarship committee's recommendation to award four $2,000 scholarships from the Bonnet Dejarna fund; the committee received 13 applications and the awards are paid from interest earned on donated funds.
The Dalhart City Council approved a recommendation from the Bonnet Dejarna scholarship committee to award four scholarships of $2,000 each at its April 28 meeting.
According to the committee report presented at the meeting, 13 applications were received; the committee selected four recipients, three from Dalhart ISD and one from Channing. The awards are drawn from interest earned on the donated scholarship principal, and the presenter said the fund’s prior higher payout temporarily reduced interest available in a later year.
A council member moved to approve the committee recommendation; the motion passed with an affirmative vote and no opposition recorded on the transcript. No specific recipient names or payment schedule were read into the record at the meeting minutes excerpt provided.
