Paul Farris Memorial Scholarship

Each year the Farris family will award two or more scholarships, one each to a
graduating Senior at Edina High School in Edina, Minnesota and Somerville High School in
Somerville, Massachusetts.
The 2011 scholarships were awarded in May. We reviewed many amazing submissions
from Edina and Somerville High Schools and selected this year's recipients. The winners are listed
on the recipient page.
Please complete your required high school scholarship
