Applicant must be active in or has participated in a Hopewell High School sport during their senior year as verified by the Athletic Director. These include athletes, trainers, and cheerleaders. (The HABC defines an athlete as an individual who meets NCHSAA and CMS requirements of participation.)
Applicant must have a non-weighted 3.0 GPA or higher.

C. SELECTION PROCESS
A HABC scholarship committee will review all applications and select recipients based on their overall contribution to their team and teammates, academics, extracurricular, and community activities. This will be a blind application-the committee will only know the applicant by number.
No parent, guardian, relative, or close personal friend of an applicant may participate in the selection process.
The HABC scholarship committee has the option to interview the applicant.
Byron Gettings Memorial Scholarship
Byron Gettings Memorial Scholarship
Byron Gettings was an integral part of the Hopewell High School Community since 2015. He supported students through his work in the Counseling Department and through his support of the Men's Basketball Team. In June of 2024, he sadly passed away too soon. To honor Coach Gettings, the Hopewell Athletic Booster Club and his family have set up a memorial scholarship in his honor.
The $1000 scholarship award will be given to a graduating senior who meets all of the requirements below:
Proof of enrollment into an HBCU. (As an HBCU Graduate, Mr. Gettings advocated for students to not only apply but enroll and become a part of the HBCU Legacy.)
Verifiable participation in at least one sport at Hopewell High School.
A brief writing sample (500 words or less) of your post high school plans and how you plan to apply the scholarship in your future studies.
