Izabella Birkey and Toby Behrends are the 2025 recipients of the Edith I. Boyd scholarships at Bureau Valley High School.
The scholarships are open to graduating seniors who have resided in the former Western School District for all four years of high school and have met the following criteria.
Boyd was a teacher who lived in the old Western School District. The scholarships have been offered to students for more than 30 years to help further students’ education at the post-secondary level.
Interest earned from the invested Edith I. Boyd estate will be used for the scholarships. A local committee composed of four community members, one faculty member and an administrator determines the amount to be expended and allocated. The applicants’ names remain anonymous and the students are selected by an identification number.
