Eligible students may demonstrate their strengths through participation in sports such as track and cheerleading; the arts, including band, music, dance, and visual arts; student government; school clubs; peer mentorship; volunteerism; or other activities that reflect initiative, dedication, teamwork, and a commitment to uplifting others.

We believe that a student's potential cannot be measured by a report card alone. True achievement is also reflected in character, perseverance, creativity, leadership, and the willingness to make a positive impact on others.

Through this scholarship, the Syrai B Foundation celebrates students who lead with purpose, embrace their talents, inspire those around them, and demonstrate the potential to make a lasting difference in their schools and communities.

Because greatness takes many forms, and every student deserves the opportunity to shine.
