Students Honored by the Woman's Club of Parsippany-Troy Hills
High School Seniors, 8th Grade and 5th Grade Students receive awards as they move up to new schools.
Students Honored by the Woman’s Club of Parsippany-Troy Hills
It’s the 66th year the club has given student end of year awards. The club started the 8th grade citizenship awards in 1955, just a year after the club was founded. This was followed by scholarships a few years later and finally the reading awards.
Reading awards were given to one student in the 5th grade from each of the ten public elementary schools. The award consisted of a certificate and a $25 Barnes & Noble gift card. Citizenship Awards have been provided to Central Middle School, Brooklawn Middle School and All Saints Academy. Two students from the 8th grade (one male and one female) in each school received a certificate and $50 check.

The Woman’s Clubs extends Congratulations to all the award winners and wishes then continued success in the years to come!
These awards and many of the other educational projects the club pursues each year are made possible with the proceeds from the annual “Tee Off for Education Golf Classic and Luncheon” held each July. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19 the club cancelled this fundraiser again in 2021. Several other fundraisers were held in 2020 and 2021 to allow us to continue with these awards. We hope to be back in 2022 with the Golf Classic bigger and better than ever!
