All graduating seniors from high schools in the Rutland area are eligible to be nominated. Nominations must be made by a coach or teacher from the same high school, and nominees can be either senior athletes or music students. There are no restrictions based on post-high school plans.

Recipients' families and nominating educators are expected to attend the awards ceremony in May.

Scholarship recipients are selected through a careful review process conducted by our scholarship committee. Nominations made by coaches or teachers are thoroughly evaluated based on various criteria, including academic achievement, extracurricular involvement, leadership qualities, and personal character. The committee considers each nominee's potential to embody the values of the Jack Rogers Jr. Foundation. Once selections are made, recipients and their families are notified, and scholarships are awarded during our annual awards ceremony.

The Jack Rogers Jr. Foundation supports a variety of programs aimed at enriching the lives of southern Vermont students, particularly in the realms of sports and music. Our initiatives include annual scholarships awarded to graduating seniors, sponsorship of private athletics for deserving students, and additional programming designed to foster competition and growth within the local sports community. Through these efforts, we strive to inspire and empower young individuals to excel in their athletic and musical pursuits, promoting their overall growth and development.
