The Hazel Scovel Samuelson Memorial Scholarship is to be used in the field of teaching. This scholarship was created by her sister, Mildred Scovel May in 1988 and was the first scholarship created to be administered by the Foundation.  Mrs. Samuelson, who had a great interest in young people, was a long-time employee of the Jefferson County Superintendent’s Office.  This scholarship was created to assist students in the field of teaching, other than coaching and physical education.
