Hubbardston trustees award two scholarships after rubric scoring
Summary
Using a rubric exported from Google Forms, trustees ranked candidates across reviewers and voted to award the top two scorers (556 and 511 out of a possible 650).
Trustees reviewed scholarship applications and the results of a rubric-based scoring process and voted to award scholarships to the top two candidates.
The trustees said evaluators completed a rubric with scores out of 130 per evaluator; totals across five evaluators produced a maximum possible total of 650. The highest-scoring applicant had 556 points and the second had 511; trustees observed a clear break between the second and third-ranked candidates and recommended awarding two scholarships.
A motion to award the top two candidates passed unanimously. Trustees discussed logistics for notifying recipients and asked staff to supply current school or institutional information for award-night coordination; some recipients were in college and a few were homeschooled, so trustees will confirm presentation details case-by-case.
The meeting record does not list scholarship dollar amounts; trustees said they would finalize notification details and confirm award-night arrangements before disbursing funds.
